Staying motivated

Options
ok so I met my goal to be under 200lbs. The scale said 198.6lbs. I want to lose the rest of this weight so bad that I can taste it. Unfortunately I want to taste everything I see. I don't eat it but I am getting extremely hungry for no reason. I eat but sometimes that bigger mindset to eat more then I need is still there. Help needed

    First, congratulations!! How much are you losing a week? Maybe you'd be less hungry if you slow down your weight loss for awhile. There's no rush.

    You can eat anything you want (and not gain weight/disrupt your weight loss) as long as you don't eat everything at once, and not all the time. Plan - prelog - enjoy!

    It helps to have a pre portioned amount set out, no eating out of a bag or box, we all know what happens when we do that. Have some healthy snacks, fruit, string cheese.

    I find that helps. Either buy a smaller snack or if that isn't possible, measure out an acceptable amount and either put the rest in a place that's hard to get to or get someone to hide it for you.

    Something else I do is that if I do want an unhealthy snack, I make myself walk the 1.5 mile round trip to the shop and back to get it
