    We all will succomb to the "cookies" if we dont prepare for our days. We need to ensure we eat enough throughout the day so that we dont have that ravenous feeling where once we satrt eating we cant stop.

    trust me, I am like that, if Idont get enough food in me throughout the day, byt he time I come home it's go time!!!! those little Dora the exploreer treats never saw it coming.

    being hungry is a mental thing, I tell my clients, next time you think you are hungry, think of your most favorite meal. if at that point you could crush that "fav meal" your probably hungry , but more times than not, it's your brain telling your body you are "craving" something, not that it NEEDS something. Our bodies are very capable of going without food even (dont suggest it, but...)

    prepare this isnt easy, it is hard work!!! you'll be fine.

    What's done, is done! So now, take a deep breath...and get back on track. Don't beat yourself up about it.

    After I've had a bad day(s), I find that if I can just get 1 good day of eating, the second day I feel sooooo much better and empowered to keep going. And that when I dwell on the mistakes I've made and beat myself up, it does nothing but make me feel worse and make it harder to get back on track. I know it's hard and extrememly frustrating, but YOU can do it.

    Here is a quote, kind of long, but one I love:

    There will be times when you will be frightened and discouraged. You may feel that you are defeated. The odds of obtaining victory may appear overwhelming. At times you may feel like David trying to fight Goliath. But remember—David did win!

    Courage is required to make an initial thrust toward one’s coveted goal, but even greater courage is called for when one stumbles and must make a second effort to achieve.

    Have the determination to make the effort, the single-mindedness to work toward a worthy goal, and the courage not only to face the challenges that inevitably come but also to make a second effort, should such be required. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says, “I’ll try again tomorrow.” Thomas S. Monson
