Grazing is easy to do. The children leave so much good food on their plate it’s a shame to see it go to waste.

Of course you don’t have to give up chocolate… just share it a bit more you meanie!

@Patricia – I am so going to change the way I eat chocolate. That sounds much more indulgent and satisfactory than just stuffing it in as quick as I can before the children catch me and want some too!

Paige is an amazing dietitian she has helped me and never accused me of not doing my best - she does not give up on me! and that is true support and not to be taken for granted. I will sing her praises. Patricia’s last blog post..Book Review: Hats Off to Two Wonderful, World Changing Men and the Books About Them

I was showing my dietitian your new blog and we saw the comment from Mom/Mum and she said – let me share with everyone how to eat chocolate when you are making a change – Paige said:
Don’t give up chocolate it helps your blood pressure and your serotonin levels. Go out and get the most expensive gourmet chocolate w/o milk in it and at least 71% cocoa. Dark chocolate. See if you can get one that is divided into squares like the American Hersey Bar. Now every night while you take 5 minutes to unwind…close you eyes and place one square on your tongue and close your mouth and let it melt down until it is gone. Breath calmly.
Repeat with a second square.
That’s it….Chocolate never tasted so good and you will feel sated – guarenteed.
Then you must ask yourself – Why am I so addicted to sugar? and Could I be allergic to dairy milk?
A little suggestion from Paige the amazing dietitian!

Dave – wishing you lots of luck with this. You’ve so hit the nail on the head when you say about always putting ‘it’ off until tomorrow.
I am so in the trap of eating bad today because there’s always tomorrow to eat the green stuff. Except I am bad at eating the good things these days.
It’s ridiculous because am obsessive about getting the fruits and vegetables down my children and husband, but I seem to forget myself.

It’s like when I was pregnant I was so super healthy. did the gentle exercising, took the vitamins, ate all the good foods and limited my caffeine and alcohol intake.

Now, my diet is a disgrace. Look at today’s food consumption:
1/2 cinnamon roll
1 whole KitKat dark (all 4 fingers of it)
2 cookies (hairdresser made made me eat them)
6 cups of tea
1/2 stawberry (leftover from son 1′s plate)
1/2 banana (that’s good eh?)
1/2 packet of Cosi chips (that’s like a Walkers pack of read salted)
1 packet mini Milk Duds (choc & caramel sweets) from son 2′s Halloween candy
1/2 toasted bagel with too much salad cream and not enough salad…
And I’m not done yet. (It’s before dinnertime and late night snack time as I write this…)
Suffice to say, i graze too much but although am not in need of losing more than a few pounds, I am desperate need of smartening up my food choices.
So, I will take inspiration from you, dave and Tara and make an effort to get fit with my food.
I salute you guys. you really could be the ones to change my diet.
Oh – I dont have to totally give up chocolate do I?

I think I might. It has to be better than the scruffy guy who hasn't shaved in days. David Fowler’s last blog post..Why Cleaning Your Toilet Could Be Bad For Your Children’s Health
