My feature on ‘slider foods’ caused quite a stir (see here). So many of you wrote to say how easy it was to slip into the habits of old and allow these kind of foods to take over again after surgery – and how much you regretted it but were pleased to now see them for what they were – nutritionally poor and certainly addictive.
I was reminded of this again today when my friend Steph (who we’ve featured before as a guest writer) grappled with the concept of such foods when they hinder weight-loss simply because they are easier to eat and seemingly are ‘easier on the pouch’.

This is so so true, you still need to make the right choice, other than the easy one, that’s why food is an addition, the chocolate, the ice cream, the biscuits. I’m 2 1/2 years out, 7 st down but I still need to lose more & I’m finding it very hard because I can eat these. I need to control the hunger for them to see the weight dropping off, it’s the wrong the food that is stopping me…..
