    My Mom has been visiting so I haven't done my usual routine. She has brought so much junk food in my house it is horrible. Cookies, donuts, candy bars. I came up with the idea to draw a circle with a line thru it with my Initial. Believe it or not it works. I did leave a few snacks unlabeled. Cool Ranch Dorito's my favorite and I can count out the amount of the serving size. I have stared at those donuts, I have craved those jelly filled donuts but have pushed thru. It scares me when she is gone hopefully I won't eat everything in sight.

    I am going to try the protein shake in the evening idea; some nights are easier than others for me depending on how much water and fruit/vegs I eat during the day. I have a natures bounty vegetable chocolate protein shake mix. I am going to save 200 calories to drink that after dinner tomorrow night. Apples really fill me up during the day. Gala apples are so good and Fuji is the other really good brand.

    I do so good the whole day but by late afternoon to evening its like my body says, "your starving eat everything!" Anyone else go through this?

    It's like this for everyone. Having to eat at a calorie deficit is not fun. Think of it as a mortgage payment. The fat you accumulated on your body is your debt. The bigger your debt the longer it takes to pay it off. It's better to (maintain) just make interest payments than it is to go further into debt when you need to take a break from the deficit (interest and principle payments).

    The reason why someone who is overweight must eat less than the person next to them who is the same height but not over weight is because the person not overweight is debt free.

    It's hard to pay off debt. It makes you never want to go into debt again.

    I totally agree. So true!! Never want to be in debt again.
