I wish you the best in your recovery. Relish each small victory and don't minimize your accomplishments!

The best way to break a habit is to start a new one in its place that gives you a bit of a reward. the only thing that I can see that could go wrong for you chewing a lot of gum is to make sure your jaw doesn't start to hurt. Then you can run into some problems.

I don't like being the center of attention either. Do you accept praise and compliments from people with ease or is that a struggle? When we change outwardly, I think it takes us a bit to adjust inwardly to the way people respond to us. That is just my thoughts. Congratulations on your dedication and work and becoming…

You are going to feel so much better! It will be hard work but worth it. Even losing a little bit can improve your health pretty dramatically. I wish you the best! friend me if you need more support!

HI Gab, Thanks for being so honest and courageous in putting your struggles out there. I usually don't offer advice unless I am asked but, still I don't know you or your situation personally so take what I say with a grain of salt. For many people food is a source of momentary comfort. I know its that way for me. I will…

Hi Bluebutterfly, I just wanted to say thank you for being courageous and telling us your story. You have a lot of great things in your life (family, etc) and becoming more healthy will put you on track to truly enjoy those things more fully. Good for you!

Wow that is great! I've been on the program six days if you discount the entire frozen pizza I ate on Friday. :(. Mistakes were made but I will move forward.

I like the chocolate too. It's not exactly peanut butter but it tastes similar and it is as tasty as peanut butter.

Oh no! That stupid delicious FLG sauce and the popcorn chicken are my downfall.

Doritos are probably the bane of my existence. I would make a plate of those and dump a bunch of sharp cheddar on top to make nachos.

I can't tell you how many times I've stopped at Casey's so impulsively and grabbed a piece of pizza. It is really good pizza.

That is a great idea. If you want it, go to the trouble of making it. AND I bet homemade is still a little more healthy than store bought.

I'm there with you. I could eat pizza not stop. Ive only come across one type of pizza that was inedible. Other than that I could eat it forever.

You can do it! What is your biggest temptation? Or your worst trigger? Mine is usually eating out. And staying up to late is always bad

It took me way too long to get to that realization point where I wanted to change. I'm just starting now to move in a positive direction. It's great that you reached that point in your life. I wish you the best as you work toward your important goal

Hi I tried to add you. I'm new here. Good luck on the healthy stuff. It's a good goal

nice job. Your determination is an inspiration!:smile:
