    and also, by resisting temptation you build up your tolerance to temptations, but the minute you give in your resistance to tempatation goes back down to 0. By temptation I am not talking about planned cheats, but more of surprises that you weren't expecting to eat when you started your day.

    Just because it's a "serving" you don't have to HAVE a serving. For instance If a serving is 3 Cookies... you CAN have just one!

    SOOO hard to right just one....For me it is whenever possible look up the calories before you eat the food! After i see the calories sometimes the craving goes away!!

    What I have been learning is that you have to allow your body to respond to your new journey and it will start telling you what it is capable of achieving. Good luck to us all !! =)

    break it down into baby steps so it isnt so overwhelming. When i started 100 lbs seemed impossible. I broke it down into 10 lbs at a time and only looked at the next 10 lbs buying myself a new pair of earrings for every 10 lbs, I have now lost 95 lbs and 100 lbs doesnt seem impossible I know I will get there

    Instead of using the lift:
    walk up one floor,
    walk down two floors.
