Fuck yeah. The caramel donut with the custard in is don.

For me though, the pasties are substandard when compared to Pound Bakery. That place even keeps them hot for you. Nice touch.

The REAL McCoy, nice!


That's probably because it's REAL food, not the chemically enhanced shit all the English fatties gourge on here at work.

I try to eat tactically to remove the need for snacks. Protein and fat aid satiety so for example today at breakfast I had a large steak with a fried egg on top, and a pile of steamed veg with a glob of butter on top of that. It was a large meal, roast dinner sized.

I find a mix of proteins in the one meal really helpful personally too. I know it sounds weird but you can achieve a similar effect with eggs, bacon, sausage, tomatoes, mushrooms…etc.

If I am going to snack I always have a large jar of olives, plenty of goats cheese, some dried berries if I'm after a little sugar hit, pistachios…I sling a dessert spoon of each in a little tupperware box and cart that around with me to nibble while I'm working.

One thing I notice is that if I eat any grains (pasta, bread…etc), which is rare, it generally makes life harder and makes me crave snacks…probably 'cos it puts me on a blood sugar roller coaster.

I've started fresh cutting my salads too rather than chopping it all up in advance & throwing it into a big food container to do a few days.

I've noticed a huge difference. It's wayyy nicer.
