First full day using this site... And I never realized how much calories i actually eat in a day! What a shock! So hopefully getting the hang of this calorie counting will get my life on the right track... I made some poor mistakes because i was craving sweets when i wasnt even hungry =/ ... The begining is always tough, so i just have to keep my head high and do better tomorrow =)

    There are lots of great tools here, and lots of :heart: AMAZING:heart: people! Use what you can and you'll do great!

    Here's a link to a thread on healthy snacks, maybe you can get a few ideas so that the next time you want to snack you can eat something without adding too many calories!

    Treat yourself to a pack of gum. It will curb that sweet tooth and save you plenty of times! It has for me. My favorite brand is 5 Gum. I really like their Zing & Solstice flavors. Also, mint gum + anything pretty much tastes BLECH!

    You're not alone. I remember my first day woes...actually for me it was first week woes. Don't worry it gets better. You just have to wait for your body to adjust.
