  It’s one of the things I like about meal prep. If I make a dozen chicken curries, a dozen chilli and a doz apricot chicken, that’s a months worth of meals if I eat at least one every day. Pita salad protein wrap for another meal. Suddenly my food decisions are way down. Fruit and nuts for clean nibbles. Ice creams on a stick, two biscuits or PBnJ for dirty nibbles. Water or protein shake for drinks. That’s most of the thinking taken out of it. Every few weeks I crave something I haven’t made myself which is usually banh mi, hsp or pizza as that’s what’s good around here.

    I always buy tomatoes, cucumbers, green leafies and a salad mix weekly then all I have to do is think up a protein to have with them for those days when I can’t be bothered to think.

  Seems about right for me:
  Go buy tim tams; NO Go buy tim tams; NO Go buy tim tams; NO

    I solve this by not going to the supermarket in person and not even looking at or clicking on the biscuit or junk food pages on the supermarket website

    if i do buy lollies or biscuits while I am out I eat a few then throw the rest away. I find much of the enjoyment is in the buying not the eating so buying and throwing away I still get some enjoyment

      I used to do that with cigarettes. I’d leave the pack with the bartender as a tip. Someone in a bar always smokes. I haven’t smoked any tobacco since early covid times, and that was just a joint that made me throw up. Also ruining the mood for the uhh catchup.
