Besides calories what other things do you limit?

I limit negativity. I choose exercise I like to do, eat not too much, and have a sense of humor.

Try to find healthy substitutes that satisfy your cravings. There are a gazillion lower calorie alternatives. For example, I'm crazy for peanut butter, so I stir PB2 into yogurt, for a salt fix, I eat peppers and spicy hummus. If you share what foods you crave, we can give you some very specific advice.
