Anyone got a recipe for something to stop the munchies?

When they have offers on I buy Brazil nuts and bags of cranberries and blueberries from Holland and Barret. Brazil nuts are quite satisfying as they take a lot of chewing and the berries satisfy my occasional sweet tooth.

Try recording your food intake on My Fitness Pal - I found that quite useful as during the day I would enter two choc digestives or similar 'naughty'such as a mug of hot chocolate - then those calories would immediately be included in my daily total allowance. By keeping inside the allowance throughout the day I could look forward and enjoy the 'naughty' without feeling guilty or doing any damage.
Don't forget to add any exercise you do onto your My Fitness Pal as they allow you extra calories depending upon what exercise you do and that really helps too!
Good luck!

I'm also trying to cut down on sugar but I'm sick of the sight of fruit. Gettingonabit - can we have your banana bread recipe, please? I've two ripe bananas sitting in the fruit bowl right now that I could use.

Have a munch on raw carrot batons or celery sticks or a few frozen seedless grapes or if you feel the need for something sweet try an Options hot chocolate drink at 39 calories.

A few nuts and dried fruit, eg dried pineapple, mango etc

However, quite high in calories

Why don't you just have an apple or a banana?
it's just not the same, is it!

I think trying to do without is quite good training for putting a sweet tooth firmly behind you.

Sez me, all virtuous, now I want a biccie.
It's comfort food.
I found knitting in the evenings took my mind off any munchies.

An individual meringue nest topped with fat free yogurt and sliced strawberries (or other fruit if you prefer).

A curly wurly takes quite a long time to eat

Or mini bag of malteasers (sp?)

For a nibble whilst watching tV
What about dicing up an apple and/or a pear with a few raisins. & Put in a little tupperware box.
Or add to some natural yogurt

A small natural yogurt with little bit of Honey added

Sliced banana on rice cake

Good luck

Why don't you just have an apple or a banana? This is my snack of choice.

Rich Tea are low in calories (for a biscuit). 50cals, I think.

Why not a biscuit? Shop around, find one to your taste with as few calories as possible.

I make banana bread, which is sometimes quite successful. No added sugar. Definitely filling like a brick.
