I managed some creative dieting for dinner when after agreeing with SWMBO that I would have the same Chilli con carne as the family for dinner. I then calculated a potential over par carb intake (mostly because of the 100g of kidney beans. So prior to eating I weighed a single bean on my spice scales (1.37g) and then carefully left 40 beans in my bowl. I had to fess up right at the end but it has meant a total carb intake day of under 40g instead of well over 55g.
Question is though to you long term members. What tricks have you got up to to maintain your diet-That might help us new to the game?

On a tangent here - if you and Jocko talk about SWMBO Should I talk about HWMDAHT? Far longer than OH so not that easy ...

He who must do as he's told... well I worked that out instantly though I suppose Adpully's suggestion isn't all bad.

As someone who has been single for 20 years you are all talking gibberish!

Oh I was there and did that except I wasn't obeyed and he didn't do as he was told (I suppose the two go together) and I'm half-way towards FFBB's perspective, at ten years single.

Bugger - sorry if I dug up unwanted memories. Was trying to be funny ... sometimes it works

Sorry Adpully, in answer to your question, I don't have any tricks except perhaps to eat something healthy whenever hungry or even sooner sometimes, as a way to avoid getting hungry enough to eat unhealthily. It doesn't escape all temptations, but I dodge a few that way.

Don't worry Phooka it was perfectly funny and I thought I had a touch of humour in my response but I suppose I should have thrown in some smileys as I can now see the tone of my reply was ambiguous.
