    gum is good, lots of water and i give in to cravings...I just try not to over do it. Regardless, I STILL TRACK EVERYTHING....sometimes, knowing the numbers are going to be red at the end of my day will help at least slow it down and make there not be that high of number :)

    If I'm going to PMS eat or emotional eat I try to eat fruit, cucumbers, lettuce, or if I need that chocolate or salty craving I have a stash of Special K cracker chips and pastry crisps for emergency.

    Heehee. With me, it's ALWAYS an emergency. :laugh: What ends up happening to me, is, I try to stash sweets that are satisfying but relatively low cal (1 hershey bar). My problem is, I live with a 16 year old boy who seeks and eats whatever can be found. Sometimes I fall into this very annoying 'If I don't eat it now, it will be gone in 6 hours' mentality when hubs brings treats home.

    Oh FFS OP, you are a special snowflake

    Whats the matter? Didn't get the response you wanted from your first snark?

    Apologies for feeding the trolls.

    I have this problem pre menstrual and when aunt flow is in town! So for two weeks in the month dieting is so very hard! I'm trying to be extra extra good for 3weeks of the month and on the week of my period I have a little chocolate everyday for a week but I stay within my cals! I never normal lose that week though. :( but try my best to make up for it in the next 3 weeks!
