    sometimes i think our period is why men are more successful at weight loss than women.. we are in danger of losing our course and going off track every month! sometimes if we screw up badly enough, we just give up! i think the best advice i've gotten is, if you do something bad, no matter how bad it is, don't let it throw you off the wagon.. a speed bump can knock you around but keep on going! sometimes our hormones make us pissy and we're feeling spoiled and whiney and nothing will satisfy us that falls under the "healthy" it's by no means an excuse to eat whatever we want! but if we can satisfy ourselves with a granola bar or something on the more "calorically expensive" side, we shouldn't let it get to us, nor throw us off the path!

    I do this all of the time, just not during Shark Week, but I buy one of the nicer bars of chocolate, and break it into quarter servings. That way, I still get delicious chocolate, but it's only 45-55 calories. This seems to work pretty well for me to keep the cravings at bay.

    Shark week
    LOVE it!!

    A couple small squares of the Dove Dark Chocolate...or a couple of mini 3-muskateers - works for me most of the time! If it's really bad, a Hershey bar only has 210 calories.

    I love 100 cal. bags of Kettle Corn, and if I have the calories and craving, add some dark chocolate ships to the bag while it's still warm.
    Another amazing snack is "baked" apples. Core an apple, put it in a bowl with about 1/8c of water, cover, microwave about 2 minutes, cut up the apple and sprinkle with cinnamon and honey or sugar or your sweetener of choice. Add dark chocolate chips for extra indulgence and around 100 calories depending on the size of the apple and what sweetener you use.

    I buy those mini chocolate bars that everyone gives out on Halloween. They are 90 calories and it ALWAYS does the trick for me : )

    Low sugar/lite Jell-0 toped with Lite cool whip! Less than 100 calories for a cup of jello and 5 table spoons of cool whip on top. Yum Yum.
