The first few days were easy...... Wed and today (Fri) are difficult. I am fighting the urge to go back to my old habits of snacking just for the sake of snacking. I do recall that it gets easier, but MAN am I struggling.....

    It has been a struggle for me this week. But everyday I wake up and I am glad I stayed the course. For the last few days I have been chanting -" nothing tastes as good as healthy feels"... over and over. I still have a lot of weight to lose but I just feel better when I eat healthy food. Junk food makes me feel terrible both physically and mentally. I have to keep reminding myself of this constantly.

    Hang in there! I'm the same way. But, sometimes I just have to give in, so I will snack on almonds or cucumbers and bellpeppers with hummus which is a good way to satisfy my snacking craving but its low in calories.

    Hi everyone, I just joined a couple of days ago. Still finding it hard to stay within my calories. Everything else in my life is fantastic except my weight and eating. i LOVE food. Hopefully reading more from you guys will help me along the way.
