Daily Inspiration for April 23, 2010
Katie Jay,MSW

Avoid the foods that do you in. :drinker:

What, if any, foods trigger negative emotions in you? Do you crave certain foods? Are there foods that make you feel deprived? These foods are the ones to avoid as much as possible.

No one is perfect, but the people who succeed at lasting weight loss are the ones who understand how certain foods negatively affect them and eliminate those foods from their diet. Try to be honest with yourself as you examine your feelings during meals.

Action for the day: In your journal, write down how you feel about this day's inspiration. Do any foods come to mind that you need to consider eliminating from your diet?

    Chocolate. Even a snack size candy bar makes me crave bad stuff for the rest of the day.

    Cookies and fast foods are my trigger foods. I do not eat cookies and I am working on eliminating all fast foods from my diet. So far doing good.

    Cereal and donuts. I have to buy something I don't like for my kids or it's gone in a day or so. :( Sometimes even the kinds I don't like, I eat. I've gotten better over the years but I've been known to poor water into a box to stop myself. Crazy I know.......

    I have a hard time controlling my self with any kind of trail mix, cashews, etc. That is why I love individual sizes for nuts. I can control myself with almonds and walnuts.
