I do not miss an afternoon snack

It's been a habit and it's like my tummy would look after it. Usually, I take snacks between 3-5 in the afternoon. Snack ranges from chips, cookies, buns, native snacks made of rice or root crops and etc. I'm not sure if I'll be able to skip snacks but if that happens, a dinner must be earlier. My dinner time is 8 of the night and a coffee later before bed time. I was told to stop coffee because of my hyper acidity but I revert drinking after few days of trying. Photo is for the afternoon snack. It's potato fries but I know that it's not real potatoes. Baked and fried as it's described on the pack.

Well, how about decaf coffee after dinner? I like snacks too, but got to be in the mood for it. Oldsters like me have slower metabolism, and I'm trying to loose weight, so I'm trying to cut back too with failure. So I got help Lipozene to help me loose weight. It's working, so I can have a good doctor's report in Dec when I go to see doctor.

Is Lipozene prescribed to you? I tried decaf but it's so different in my taste buds. I hope your results are all OK.

@ZedSmart It sounds like to solve the snack problem would be to have dinner earlier.

@ZedSmart Would drinking something help you or do you need a snack? Do you have to worry about gaining weight?

Yes, those are beneficial for health I think. I also love nuts but peanuts are the most common here.

@ZedSmart They are beneficial to health, they are good fats needed by the body. I really love them however, Cashew nuts are quite expensive here i think maybe because they are a rare here.

@kearabilwe Yes, I agree. Although, they are produce locally but not that widely I think. It's amount is higher than peanuts.

Afternoon snack is always good, but coffee before bad is a no no no. Cut it out friend, it's really not healthy.

I also love eating this snack. It is so addictive. When I go to the grocery, I usually buy some of it and eat them once I arrive home.

I like this one as it's just salted (not salty though). Those that have flavors does not sit well with my taste.

You sleep early too? If I eat dinner early, probably, the result is a midnight snack.

Good that you do not feel hungry as the time progresses. I know I have to control my cravings. I tried to eat less though during meal time.

It's easy to develop the habit of having snacks. I try to limit them but it's difficult.

If coffee is your beverage and you try to avoid it, it will make you weak.
