I think you need to look for better 'rewards'.

A nourishing meal and maybe a couple of strong coffees would have kept you going and you'd probably feel better for it today?

I agree with Dee here.
There are some afternoons round about 3pm when I am flagging.
I still have jobs to do - pick daughter up, make tea, sort out house, apply for jobs ( i have just been made redundant), do computer work for this job, wrestle child into bath, beg child to read words and do her homework, wash up, dry up, beg child to have hair dried, put child that never sleeps to bed, agree and shake on 2 stories and cuddle rather than 8 stories and her fall asleep on my knee for all night, arrange hose sales for house I can no longer afford on my own with no job, try go to bed before midnight.... and I think so it all, I want a glass of wine.

However I find having a fresh orange, a doughnut, or a sugary hot chocolate helps massively.

If I sit and concentrate on drinking it and take 2 mins away from all I'm doing, it has stopped me a million times from heading to the fridge.

I was 3 years in Feb 2015, so it must be worth you having a try mate!!
