HELP - NEED 7 GOOD DAYS TO GET BACK WITH IT

adleug

I've lost lots of weight in the past only to regain it because of a "don't really give a hoot" attitude that keeps on resurfacing. I do pretty good after I've had 7 "good" days. I need lots of support and encouragement for 7 days. It seems if I can make it for 7 days, I can continue the diet with more success. I then begin to feel encouraged myself. Anyone out there?

My problem is snacks i seem to say oh this one will be ok and then have one every day, I know snacks are ok but I have the bad ones m& ms, licorice I cant seem to help myself, I try just to have a bad one on Fri as a treat but that never works. so I know what you are going through.

I am going to try taking what I want to eat ( my Meals ) and then take a 1 / 4 of it off . a little at a time as well as putting it on a smaller plate. And no SUGARY SNACKS for me. I will let you know if you want.

let me know how you are doing mabey just talking can help you

I really tend to crater at night - what kind of snacking do you suggest - I usually do better with meals only for the first 7 days.

I find, I'm really good all day, then comes the evening...sitting in front of the TV with the family, they eat, or I see tempting adverts, I end up going to the kitchen and grabbing a small slice of sponge cake with evaporated milk, or a cereal bar or the like.

So...today, I decided, Im going to change things up a bit, and instead of eating with everyone else, or when temptation strikes, Im gonna take up the old knitting again - give my fingers something to do.
I lost 3lbs last week, then, at the weekend I put 2lbs back on, so whilst I'm a pound lighter, knowing I would have been 3lbs lighter makes me feel like kicking my own butt! :grumble:

Good luck in your weight loss journey - we're all here for support and motivation :flowerforyou:

My motto is if I want to eat something that will take me over my calories for the day I make a pact that I WILL do excercises to work it off , if I dont want to :grumble: excersise then I can't have the treat plain and simple :noway: .
Have you tried "Chromium" for those SWEET :devil: cravings?, it works a treat.
Hope this helps a little...................................towards one of your 7 days :flowerforyou: :drinker:


Families are like fudge................mostly sweet, with a few nuts.
Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground.
Laughing is good exercise........... It's like jogging on the inside.
Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the toy.
