I'm so going to buy extra bananas when I'm next at the fruit shop.

I can't have chips or chocolate in the house. Found a bag of chicken chips the other day (not even a flavour I like that much) and polished off the entire thing... felt sick afterwards too.

Also - DH likes baking and makes choc chip cookies with chocolate melts - I keep having a few chocolate melts and then he goes to make them and the packet is gone, oops!]]> Wed, 03 Nov 2010 15:22:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1191468&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1191468 <![CDATA[Tips for people with vices : MyLilSquishy - How do you make...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1184625&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1184625 Author: VioletStar

Oooh, must try the banana thing.
I used to put heaps of ice cubes in my protein shakes - comes out like a frappacino / milkshake kinda - just lots of ice, some trim milk and choc protein powder and blend til smooth. Haven't done that for years.

My vice is chippies. I can not have them in the house. Even cheesy ones (big uns, cheezels etc) or crackers that are like chippies. The only thing I do is not have them around, and buy multipacks so if I am eating them its just a small pack. And have lower fat/calorie versions like popcorn or those pop chips here so I eat them instead.

I love lollies too, but they are easier to avoid and I don't get cravings unless I see them. I ate HEAPS while pg/BFing tho ..... DH was horrified when he kept finding my hidden bags of lollies all over the house! ]]> Sun, 24 Oct 2010 21:09:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1184375&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1184375 <![CDATA[Tips for people with vices : i keep forgetting to freeze my...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1158856&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1158856 Author: MyLilSquishy

Hey, just thought I would share.  The other night I made spag bol and instead of having a portion of pasta with the meat sauce, I baked a sweet potato and had that with the mince instead and it was so yummy.  I didn't miss the pasta at all.  Might help those with pasta as their vice

I try not to buy but that's not working so well at the moment!

Chips -- in my last PG I would eat a big bag each day . Now we (all 3 of us) go through one bag a week. I put them in a small ramekin and that's my serving if I have them.

Ice cream - usually don't have it in the house. We do at the moment and it's not a good situation!

Snacks - I'm spending money on nice spreads and chutneys and having corn crackers with spread, Edam cheese and tomatoes for snacks.

Lunches - making big things of soup and having them with toast or pita bread. Buying more expensive but yummy ingredients (like avocado) to make toasted sammies with just a bit of cheese.

I'm spending a bit more money on pre-prepared things (like soups if I CBAed cooking) and having them rather than takeaways for lunches. Buying lots more fruit and actually eating it for snacks! Turns out I'm craving salads and fruit so that works well.

we have alot of pasta because its quick... when we do pasta, we add chicken stock powder, garlic stock powder and grated cheese (melts all together)

ummm cheese on toast (once or twice a week)

put it in scrambled eggs

Hiya, hahaha where do I start..... chips are my vice so I try not to have them in the house, but that doens't always stop me as I live just up the road from a supermarket!!  And lollies seem to be making their way into my diet too!!!

Lately I've been making yummy green salads and making sure it fills up most of my plate, then I don't have much room for whatever dinner I've made to add to the plate.  Also I put my alarm on for 20mins after each meal and I can't get anything else to eat until the timers gone off.  That way my brain has time to register that I'm actually full and I don't overeat.  Usually I'd be at the kitchen cupboard straight after eating looking for something else to eat!!  It's working tho as I haven't been eating anything else after meals

I also buy flavours of things I don't like if DF or the kids want something.

There are heaps of foods that I just wont buy as I know they are not safe in my house!

You can make variations on fave meals by using lower fat / sugar ingredients - this is always fun - nice to feel like you are eating your favorite food and its not breaking the rules.]]> Thu, 09 Sep 2010 11:14:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1148108&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1148108 <![CDATA[Tips for people with vices : I am terrible with icing, I make...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1148098&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1148098 Author: jazzy

I am terrible with icing, I make cupcakes a couple of times a week for lunch boxes & often do an icing which I have to eat the left overs...not much but not good.

Oh & can not have ice cream in the house as I can not resist it....so the kids have fruit usually ]]> Thu, 09 Sep 2010 11:10:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1148098&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1148098 <![CDATA[Tips for people with vices : yeah im terrible at not buying....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1148056&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1148056 Author: MyLilSquishy

With the ice cream thing (as that was one of mine) save a couple of yoghurt containers and use those for your ice cream serving.. or the WW ice cream containers cause they are smaller. I just don't buy ice cream then I don't eat it. Or I buy a type I don't like so the boys can have it.]]> Thu, 09 Sep 2010 10:36:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1148053&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1148053 <![CDATA[Tips for people with vices : Like me lol. my vice is ice cream....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1148034&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1148034 Author: MyLilSquishy

Like me lol. my vice is ice cream.


buuuut what ive done is instead of ice cream in a bowl (because our bowls are HUGE) i allow myself an iced coffee with a dessert spoon in it. or i put ice cream in a glass, its heaps less, but the glass is still full.


hmmm i make sure i eat breakfast before i go grocery shopping on a saturday morning and that cuts down on the splurges coz im hungry.


If im snakcish i make a banana smoothie coz i can sip it for ages and make it last so i dont feel like "hmmm banana's gone, what now?"


i will boil eggs and bake chicken breasts in the morning for lunch time sammies. (mmmmm)


i drink water from a water bottle not a glass. (if i drink from a glass i have less than i glass in a day, from a bottle i have about 2-3L a day.. i hate when water sits out. it gets a stale taste, and a water bottle i dont warry bout DS grabbing at it)


when we eat dinner, and i want seconds, i always go for salad (i make an awesome salad!!!) so that i fill up on healthy stuff (ohk mayo isnt healthy, but better than a full cream potato bake lol)




any other tips?]]> Thu, 09 Sep 2010 10:26:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35665&PID=1148034&title=tips-for-people-with-vices#1148034
