Lost 3.5 stone ... 8-9pm snacking rearing its ugly head :
Discussion
I'm 'big boned' and enjoy food so can't live off protein shakes and water.
I buy Konjac noodles/rice/pasta they are pretty much zero calories and fill you up. The are a bit plastically but nothing worse than the pasta I used to get at school. Basically add whatever you fancy but in modesty. Cook some celery, tomatoes and whatever ever you fancy but aim for about 200 calories. Cook it up and freeze it in Tupperware, and when you are hungry, heat it up with the noodles, it will fill you up, I guarantee. it also works well in controlling hunger.
I also very low zero calorie sauce BBQ sauce from Waldon Farms and use that to add flavour, mix it with the pasta if you want. I might even try baking the noodles in the BBQ sauce a low calories snack, and will report back

I just brush my teeth early now. I don't eat after brushing in the evening, so rather than do it before bed, I do it an hour or so after finishing dinner, as I can't be arsed to clean them again after. Surprisingly effective. Stops alcohol consumption too, I just stick to water after that.

I'm not a banana lover, but it's probably the best flavoured one and I like the mint chocolate one in a smoothie.
Not overly keen on the strawberry but the wife likes it.
Regardless of flavour, it does a job.

I'm not psycho therapist like, but if being hungry doesn't stop you sleeping can't you just be hungry? I know it's easier said than done and we all suffer irrational compulsive behaviours and the human mind is prone to all sorts of errors and daftness, but you know you're not going to starve - right? And isn't the aim here to break the cycle of eating rather than just change what you eat?

Well well well ....I can confirm (IMHO) that butterscotch 'muscle mousse' is officially rank ! Oh jeeez It'll take a bit of getting used to ....more like cold cappuccino. Oh well onwards and upwards - nothing tastes as good as slim feels !
It smelt and tasted good as a powder, but when mixed and set it just tasted to artificial, then the aftertaste a bit like sweetener found in canderel or such. Mrs Chippy said there is less cals in Angel Delight butterscotch flavour and i know what i would prefer.
