So for Lent I thought that I would give up sweets, puddings, chocolate, biscuits, cake. In truth I don't eat a lot of these anyway and would tend to snack only occasionally on such foods but, hey, I thought "try to consciously cut out the snacks".
For the first week I switched to just wanting to eat crisps/chips/cheese(things that I rarely if ever eat) I was fascinated to see what happens if you give up one thing in your diet how you'll replace it with the nearest food type. I think it's because now I am not grazing so when it gets to meal times I really want a big meal. I eat porridge every day but find that when I miss it these are the days that I am most likely to want to eat the other rubbish; a lesson in there somewhere...In South Africa this week so bound to want to eat steak/drink wine. maybe if I ONLY consume the steak and the wine I'll be ok...
