Earthlady's Journal, 05 May 2012

Despite doing really well during the day I'm still struggling with snacks at night. I've had all my meals by 8pm latest, often earlier. I think the problem lies in my workspace being (of necessity) in the kitchen. I nearly always have desk work to do after dinner - prep for school, marking, or studying. I make sure I clear away dinner and do all the washing up but a beer and some chocolate or nuts are always beckoning. The easiest thing would be not to buy them, but I'm not the only person that lives here! Hubby likes a beer or two, and the children like chocolate, nuts etc. I've tried replacing the beer with fresh pressed juice but that means I have to get up and do something more than just open the fridge door!

Evening edit - I don't have time to go in and look up every food I ate for dinner and its calorie value - Turkish style green beans in tomato sauce, artichoke hearts & broad beans cooked in olive oil, 3 stuffed vine leaves, 3 thin slices of fried haloumi cheese, some cherry tomatoes, lettuce and a slice of bread. My guess is 300 to 400 calories, including the bread.
128.5 lb Lost so far: 8.2 lb.    Still to go: 2.9 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
