Kind of a success story

I used to be addicted to diet pills. And by addicted I wouldn't eat ANYTHING with out popping some kind of diet pill first. Well today while shopping with my boyfriend, he pointed out the new Hydroxycut Max made just for women. I've taken Hydroxycut before and was happy with the results. I picked up the box and seriously considered buying it. But I put it back and told him "I want to do this the right way. With out diet pills" ... Huge step for me!! 6 lbs lost (10 in total since Jan 1) all with still eating and NO diet pills!!

    Realizing your strengths and weaknesses is awesome! You will see results and feel so much better about yourself.

    Thank you for sharing your tough moment. It really helps others realize things about themselves.

    I've been having this same problem (not diet pills, but with ice cream...it's my red light food..I usually can't say no to it). Last night I ate my last bit of ice cream that I'll have at home. I've decided I'm not buying it for home anymore, unless it's portioned and lowfat/local. My husband suggested it after our son went to bed. This is what we've been doing for 5+ years and it has to stop. I really need to work on this habit, or at least learn to control it.

    Excellent! It has to be a lifestyle change - otherwise, you'll be dealing with this the rest of your life. It's a mind thing, stay focused on being health and on your goal.
