    Space up your food intake so you don't get to that "I'm starving!!!!" stage. Tomorrow is a new day, we all need to tweek this until we get what's right for our own bodies.

    Make sure you eat throughout the day. Worst thing is to come home hungry, then you get thrown off the wagon!
  • you guys are amazing. thank you thank you and thank you again. I have seen what I did wrong and cannot wait to start tomorrow and do it right! good luck to everyone, its so great that we have each other, someone who understands
  • One thing I have done to prevent cramming junk food into my stomach - I cleaned out my pantry and fridge, took everything that wasnt healthy to me and gave it to someone who needed it, then went grocery shopping. Even if I tried to pig out, it would be on something healthy.. because that's all that's in my fridge!

    Everyone has those days. Just have to pick yourself back up, and jump back on the wagon. One or two days isn't going to set you back that much. :)
  • Just saw that you live with your folks so you can't do what I suggested.. Maybe invest in a mini fridge? XD

    Add in some high protein as someone else said, I lov my chocolate and carbs, but I am able to stay away from them more when I fill with higher protein. U asked for examples- protein shakes, I try to have a hard boiled egg a day, chicken breast or turkey meat, cottage cheese. If u really need some sweets I go for a little bit of lite coolwhip with some fruit in it like strawberries or look up pumpkin fluff on here & I add a tad of walnuts for some crunch or sugar free cherry pie filling with walnuts and the coolwhip. Also lots of water- I add lemon juice to mine for taste. Good luck- it all comes with time and there will be pitfalls, but u gotta just get up and dust yourself off and get right back on it again:)

    It's a new day! Just get back right on it. If you stop, you'll feel bad about it later. Just keep doing it!
  • its not about how many times you fall but how many times you get back up that matters.
    learn what your triggers are so that they can be avoided.
    Eat regularly, drink lots of water sometimes we confuse hunger with thirst.
    its also going to take a while for your body to adjust to not aach as much as it used to.
    i eat oats for brekky i keeps me going

    Does your wagon have seat belts?

    The only person who can help you is you. Spend some time reflecting on the triggers that cause you to "fall off the wagon" and fix them.

    I had to learn to spread calories out over the day instead of skimping all day then binging when I got home from work.
