    Remember - there is nothing wrong with enjoying the unhealthy along with the healthy. It's all about portions. That has helped me a lot. When I do strictly healthy eating, I fail. I need the bad too lol.

    Thank you, I try to keep that in mind! I use a lot of my calories on coffee drinks that’s my guilty pleasure 😂

    The first is identifying those pitfalls and it looks like you've found a good one to start with. Look at how you can modify your order or substitute for something else that still satisfies your habit/craving. Look for other high calorie opportunities where you can make changes/swaps that stick long-term.

    I need those tips too, seems like I’m an all or nothing type. I can have just one. 😭

    I’m going through a bad eating run, just trying to get undet control again. I don’t go completely off the rails, just over eating “good” things mostly. 😓
