OH MY GOD

Or better yet, throw the candy away! I can't have that stuff in my house or I'd annihilate it!

^^THIS!^^

I find if it's not in the house and readily accessible, I don't have to worry about succumbing to temptation. There's just certain stuff I cannot have in the house, because I know for a fact I will snorfle it faster than a ... snorfling... snorfler... thing. :bigsmile:

That being said, don't be too hard on yourself. Everybody...and I mean EVERYBODY... occasionally just loses it and dives head-first into the delicacy of their choice. Rather than feel guilty, just truly enjoy it, then forget about it and focus on tomorrow. Don't fall into the cycle of self-denial, and when you fail to resist, guilt and despair. It is what it is, acknowledge it and then move on. You're going to be just fine, simply stay positive about what it is you ultimately want to accomplish.

You CAN and you WILL succeed!

i work at subway, and i have a VERY hard time not eating those delicious cookies! It's a struggle every shift. i found that chewing gum helps keep my mouth busy and helps with the cookie craving. It might help you with your chocolate craving!!

Don't beat yourself up about it. Tomorrow is a new day. We all have weak moments. Be proud that you are on your journey to a healthy life. Remember, all roads have their ups and downs. I bet you have had many more incredibly positive days than you have had small slip ups.

Thank you guys, I do think that chewing gums do help with my hunger all the time, it just kept my mouth moving that my stomach doesn't bother me.

Sounds like you may have been hungry & didn't have a back-up plan...for instance, you may not have had the healthy food choice in front of you....:flowerforyou:

Planning ahead works, with healthy choices prepared ahead of time.....:flowerforyou:

Chocolate! What's wrong with it? Nothing, it's amount one chooses to eat. :flowerforyou:
It is trial & error that will teach you. (That will give you the motivation you need!!!)

I'm sure you are not so hard on yourself now, are you?
You must make the changes, in order to get to the goal you want. One day at a time!! :flowerforyou:

sschmidt928-you got it right, dont' deprive yourself! It used to be lots of ice cream for me, so i just eat less of it & I can smile cuz I am not over doing it. Progress is slow, but so worth it!!

Great support, I love it!
