    Getting back into MFP, lately if feels like all I do is think about food! Plus it seems that whenever I want to 'treat' myself, it's food related. That's the big one to break. If I want to eat, I eat, and I refuse to feel guilty about it, or sneak around it, because I did eat it, and feeling guilty is not going to help me with those feelings, in fact it causes me to eat more because I feel bad about being guilty!

    Try and think about what triggers your eating, is it thoughts, smells, etc. I found out that fruit makes me more hungry, and keeping snacks in the house is not a good thing for me, like Toddahlie, if I'm bored I tend to want to eat, not because I'm hungry. I try and focus on anything but food throughout the day, which is pretty hard sometimes.
