I do the shopping in my house... most items I buy are low in fat and sugars, which is the first thing I look for after one of the girls told me to not worry so much about the calories and make sure that the fat and sugars are low.
I don't have loads of crap in the house...
I don't eat take-aways and I don't eat chocolate or loads of sugary biscuits etc...
These bars are small and are around 80 cals each... hardly a blow-out. OK, not exactly the best thing in the world to snack on, but I've had one, not the whole box, so I'm not going to beat myself up over it.
Actually, the HH's are made with corn and are low in fat and sugars, so that's why I bought them - as a little treat, but my tastes have changed and I don't really fancy them after having one pack.
I actually cook a lot of homemade lentil soup with mixed veggies and have been really good as far as low fat/sugar is concerned. It's just been today that I had that bar and packet of HH...
I was just feeling a bit worried as others seem to be eating less than me and feel stuffed... I can't help but compare, even though I know I shouldn't, as everyone is different
I'm not ravenous or anything... and I know I ate because I wanted to, not because I needed to. Without going into too much detail, I suffer from dysmenorrhea and menometrorrhagia, and have just had 6 days of hell, so my habit it to reach for something sweet. Hence the CCP bar...
What get's me is that I had one cup of Rice Crispies a couple of weeks ago and felt like I was dumping, but this bar didn't make me feel sick at all!!! Strange...
I'm still on really soft foods, everything is mush or soup apart from the occ' cracker or Ryvita mini... oh, and my slice of toast in the morning with Bertolli light and marmite!
I don't eat meat and I haven't tried more solid food since my 'incident' with the Quorn Shep' Pie!!! I'm just taking it easy... apart from today, but that is not going to be a daily habit as I tried, I ate and I didn't really enjoy it that much!!!
So something good has come from this...
