You should avoid dad taxing your kid's snacks :P
More seriously though, self-control is over-rated, its easier to make healthier food choices if the bad food choices aren't easily available.The food retail industry is designed to make you buy more than you originally planned to, so avoiding going out to get coffee (and have your head turned by the delicious looking pastel de nata) and food shopping when hungry can be life logistical changes that can make staying on plan much easier.
One of the things I'm doing is unsubscribing from any emails from just-eat/deliveroo/uber eats/dominos and similar that were heavily used during lockdown, as they know to email/text you when your willpower is weak....
Not the sure the kids would be pleased if I binned all their Xmas choc and various snacks….!
