Lost 3.5 stone ... 8-9pm snacking rearing its ugly head :

[Por911T]

Long and short :

I was circa 18 stone (18 months ago) got the finger out and I'm down to 14st 11 and I gym 3-4 a week (circuits & spin classes)...never felt better and have truly got the fitness / health bug.

My weakness is ravenous hunger about 8-9pm every night and my weight loss has halted probably because of this with snacking here / snacking there taking its toll.

I enjoy a certain chocolate protein shake which I find fills me up quite well, while its fat free are they not quite high on sugar content (??) .... I take these to fill me up not necessarily for muscle gain - is it completely wrong to do this ?

Any other suggestions to stave off my evening snacking ??

Struggling with this a bit just now so any help/advice/input/thoughts appreciated

Missed this, just had a thought....what flavour did you go for?

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.

.....went for butterscotch, reason being it was a tenner cheaper and probably the fact that as a wee boy I loved butterscotch Angel Delight . That's my theory anyway :-) time will tell .

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 !
