Hello everyone,

I have been on here before, but I completely fell off the wagon. It took a pair of jeans that used to be big for me that have now become snug, for me to open my eyes. :cry:

I've noticed my biggest problem is my snacking. I recently quit smoking so I've been replacing my cigarettes with food and that is what is causing me to snack. I am absolutely addicted to chocolate right now too! ugh...

All in all, I need help! I really want to accomplish my weight loss goals so I can finally be completely healthy.

Thanks,
Tina

    Good luck! you can do it! and if you are wanting to snack now.... maybe try healthier snacking options like carrot sticks or 100 calorie popcorn? Or find a friend to go for a walk with when you start getting bored.

    I can definitely do walks. I was actually just thinking about that last night. Just hook up my ipod and go. Just wish it wasn't dark out by the time I got home everyday. That's my only deterrent.
