    Ask yourself are you truly hungry? Or are you just bored, thirsty, tired etc...

    I should be ashamed to say this, but, I am a senior citizen, sooooo, I have been around a while
    Hang around with fit friends, not overweight friends.

    Don't drink your calories. Amazing how many extra calories you can save by drinking tea and water.

    1. Log everything and stay within your calorie limit.

    Oh I have two, sorry

    2. Have a cheat day now and again and don't eliminate anything from your diet for good.

    Wow, maybe that was like 4? :/

    Choose progress over perfection. Resiliency will win.

    Me just saying I'll give 100% to anything makes me immediately hate it. I thought I had to be perfect to have success. I couldn't have a cookie or a soda or skip a walk - if I did the whole thing ended. Now I know - just keep moving in the right direction and don't stop completely. Now I've learned to just stop for a short time or a day or a meal - but not permanently. Perfection is unnecessary. Progress is exciting!

    Stick with it. Don't get discouraged even if you have a "bad day". We are all entitled to a cheat day.

    Good topic, so thanks for starting it. Many good tips here that I will read when there's time. My tip: Control your environment, i.e. don't buy Oreos thinking that you'll eat one a day. If I bought them, I'd eat a sleeve tonight and another one tomorrow. But maybe that's just me. I do not have things in my pantry that will trigger this kind of eating.
