I'm so glad your words of wisdom came to me this weekend or my eating would have been disasterous. My family had hotdogs with the works and chips for dinner on saturday, and I struggled trying to stay on track with "good" food choices. I tried bocca mushroom burger, took one bite and left it sitting on the plate. Still unsatisfied, I caught myself grazing, searching thru the cabinets for something that tasted good instead of what was good for me. Then it hit me... Vickie said if you really really want a hamburger, eat one. So I fixed my hotdog on a regular bun with chilli sauce and mustard, cut it in half, took my time and enjoyed it! Man was it good! It hit the spot, ended the need to graze, and left me smiling. (found out I don't like chips anymore, that's a good thing!) In the past, I would have beat myself black and blue for "giving in" like that,
but because of your wise advice I'm guilt free, and ready to move on with this lifestyle. Man I love you guys!!

Well thank you. You know the temptations dont come alot but at times they will and it wont stop until you have it. Now honey I could at one time had 4 of them fully loaded. With other stuff with it.

Brandy the thing I found is if you go ahead and do it..... it does stop it and it rarely pops up. Couple days later you look at the scale and you have lost more weight. Not kidding. I think CT said somthing about him doing this once and was suprised he did the same.

I get alot of my knowledge by just reading post. Just reading and watching and finding out what other people do and notice simular things really help.

I appreciate the thanks. It does mean alot.
