    Thats awesome Misty! I just wanted to mention too that custard is Low GI and so I had it as my little treat. I used to just buy the tubs of 6 (for portion control ) and they are a great little snack to have if you feel like something sweet after dinner.

    hehe... just don't do my trick of having all 6 tubs!
    I try not to keep treats in the house. Because if they are here I eat them. But when I want a treat I go out and buy it when I want it, and I will generally onlly buy things in individual serves (and if it comes with more then one serve, give the other serves to either my kids or my DH so there is nothing left for me to have seconds).

    Hello everyone,

    How are you all travelling so far?
    I had another good day food wise yesterday. I probably would have caved truth be told. My DS2 is unwell and has been sooky and whingy and cuddly, and he kept both me and my DH up all last night - times like that all I want to do is eat sweet sugary foods. Thankfully there was nothing in the house for me to consume, and my DH had the car all day so I couldn't go out and get anything. I am a big emotional eater, and stress is my archilles heel - when I reash my limit looking after the kids, I usually find that is when I loose control of myself in regards to food. I do have to confess though, that I did at one point get so desprate that I had a spoonful of icing sugar. I put the spoon down and the icing sugar back in the cupboard then, and I made sure I wrote it down in my food diary too. But other then that I managed to stick to healthy foods within my daily allowance. So I am pretty pleased overall.

    I hope everyone else is going well.
