I remind myself that it is probably thirst. I make myself drink (4) 8oz of water before I snack. 95% of he time it works. I have such an angry relationship with food. I get angry that I shouldn't eat it, and so I eat it. In hindsight, I'm not sure who I think I'm sticking it to by eating what I'm not supposed to. I get so…

I have found that the longer the stretches I go without sweets and white flour foods, the less I crave sweets and the better veggies taste. Just have to hang in there! On days when I just really need sweets. I'll have an extra fruit or try to cure it with sugar free mints and jello :)

Thank you so much. I have been smiling all day!

skinny4me2be, This article was my start to increasing calories. It could have been written about me :) http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/3047-700-calories-a-day-and-not-losing

Amazing work and dedication. I'm headed there myself :)

I aknowledge your effort. I'm right there with ya :) Just keep going!

Amazing!!

:) Me too!

Digiorno Self rising pepperoni. My daughter's favorite!

I'm trying :)

Throwing out my clothes as they get too big has always helped me not go back up in size and accept the new my :)

I don't like it because it means they viewed me as fat before. Other people's acknowledgement of what has disgusted me about myself for so long... hurts.

Proud of you! Congrats!

What people "think" about you, is not your business. You're doing great, right?! Feeling better, NSVs out the wazoo?! Keep going. You can't worry about someone else's insecurities being bounced off you. You are amazing. Don't ever forget that.

I use Shirataki noodles to make LoMein. Thye are Tofu noodles. It's about $4 a pack, but worth it. Practically no carbs and high in fiber!

Sugar free candy!!!!

Get off your *kitten* and start logging again!!! You know you look and feel better when you do!

Be kind to yourself.

I did the same thing Friday night. I found myself eating crap (even though it was within my count) just to get rid of the hangover. I never realized alcohol contributed so much to me being overweight. Not just the alcohol itself, but the aftermath.

I'm proud of you for recognizing what you were doing and getting back in control.

I binged this weekend. Cool ranch doritos 600 calories for about 36 chips. 36 chips!!!!! One thing I can say about my love for MAC is that is making me painfully aware for how awful I have been feeling my body. It is no wonder how I have been overweight for soo long.

In one day I ate a family pack of taco flavored taquitos... with plenty of sour cream on the side. That wasn't the only thing I ate that day. Sigh. It's over now :)

I was singing and dancing while making dinner last night. I was excited to be eating healthy, yet fufilling food. I haven't caught myself doing that in years :)

Hello fellow yo-yo dieter. This is one of the best articles I have ever read on MFP about the logic behind it taking time to see results. You may want to take a gander. Jen http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/3047-700-calories-a-day-and-not-losing

Last week was a success! I even went on a date to Buffalo Wild Wings where I thought for sure I would allow myself to binge.... but I didn't! Had 2 lite beers and 5 naked wings (even though I ordered 10). I am stupid excited about the control I had :)

I had my neighbor/close friend tell me that it looks like I took off my fat suit. That one hurt.

I appreciate everyone's feedback. Thank you!!!

Awesome. Thank you. That makes sense!

Hmph. I hadn't noticed. Thanks for the tip. I bet that will make a difference!

I would love to do this. I need the accountability. Feel free to add me! Jen
