Amen!!! There is nothing worse than waking up dazed in the morning...finding an empty cookie container and those tell-tale cookie crumbs around your mouth.

This is a very hard time of the year for people who are trying to lose weight. Like you I love to make Christmas cookies...As far as I can see...There is nothing wrong with MAKING Christmas cookies...My problem has always been EATING the Christmas cookies that I bake. Personally...I'm not trying to have anything in my…

I think that the first thing that you should do is to identify your demons...Mine are (among other things)...cheesecake and caramel coffee...Once you identify your demons...You can figure out a strategy for those times when an old sugar urge rears it's head. Yesterday I had to use sugarfree jello to knock out an urge for…

Cat's only pee on stuff when their litter box is not clean.

You look fantastic...congratulations.

I am planning on celebrating Thanksgiving the traditional way...I just plan on making better choices at the table...ie measured amount of Turkey breast instead of my previous unlimited helpings of (dark meat)....plenty of greens (instead of plenty of stuffing)...making/bring my own version of sweet potatoes/ mashed…

Sugar always stimulates my appetite...fat seems to curve my appetite...So I try to avoid sugar.

If you lost 28lbs...you should have continued to plug along with whatever you were doing...Because it WAS working...Like someone else said...Three weeks is not a long time to be stalled.

Potty training Boys??? Cats are easier.

Congratulations for sticking to it and reaching your goal!:flowerforyou:

I think I remember reading somewhere that Walmart employees were planning a Black Friday walkout...Is that still on?

I used to be a confirmed Black Friday shopper...but nowadays I do most of my heavy bargain shopping online. A word of caution to anyone who is has never participated in that particular form of shopping mayhem called "Black Friday"...Rule 1...Don't even think about about getting mixed up in one of those "mad bargain mobs"…

Wow...you really have done a fantastic job.:flowerforyou:

Congratulations on reaching your goal...you did a fantastic job.:flowerforyou:

Some people CANNOT handle sugar!!! Refined sugar effects the same brain sensors as COCAINE....so yes you absolutely can be ADDICTED to SUGAR!!! And furthermore...should you find that you are an individual (who is Addicted to refined sugar)...then I think that you need to treat your sugar cravings like a true Addiction. OP…

Sugar can be a terrible addiction...If you want to be free...go cold turkey!

Salt, sugar and flour will keep you begging for more!

Wow..great job!

Wow...that program really made a difference for you...good job!

Good job losing that 5lbs...just keep plugging along and you will make it!

WHAT!!!:sad:

I was the same way until I tried truvia (brand name for stevia).

If you must have sweet with no calories...try Stevia...(its also natural).

Wow...That was just amazing...you look great...Congratulations.:flowerforyou:

Try cutting back on some of the salt, sugar and the grain based products...I don't know about you.. but I find that salt, sugar and flour tend to stimulate my appetite..

This may sound crazy...but even after all of this time...the all time most disturbing movie that I ever saw was Walt Disney's Bambi.... I was very, very young and seeing (Bambi's) mother killed was fearful and traumatizing...Although I love the character Bambi....I continue to hate that movie. I refused to let my own…

Wow...an amazing transformation...congratulations!:flowerforyou:

In the US...we call them "haters"...ie..people who are so eaten up by jealousy that they need to speak negatively...Ignore the haters and continue to do your thing...You are doing a great job!
