Hey guys this is the first day of my 3 week diet so far that I have felt down and wanting to eat loads! I have had a glass of wine and a chocolate bar but must stop eating now. What do you do when you have had a real bad day and your normal way before was to stuff your face with fatty foods? Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

    When I get really upset, I have an album of funny pictures from all over the internet that make me laugh until my sides hurt and tears are rolling down my face. My attention is focused on that instead of eating and when I'm done, I feel like getting up and doing something active. So why not start a folder on your desktop and save pictures that make you smile, laugh, motivate you, or just look pretty?

    I'd say keep a lot of healthy snacks so when you feel like eating you will be eating those and not the bad ones taht makes us gain weight. I bought these yummy 100 calories brownies last weekend, and i eat 1 when I want something sweet, try looking for 100 calories snacks or have fruits instead, that helps me with my sweets cravings.

    When I feel like that I go and workout. It makes feel better and drink lots of water. Sometimes I just might have a small bite of chocolate ...

    I head for the gym and exhaust myself. It takes my mind off whatever is bothering me and relaxes me.
