The Carb Crave Update: It took about 2 weeks but the cravings are GONE! It's amamzing ...

It feels like an addiction has been broken!  If I want carbs for a snack it's cause I want them,not dictacted by behavior, and I am avoiding them

I found a nice take-along small pack of fresh carrots, tomatoes and celery with a veggie dip that I take out when I get the munchies and that's working nicely.

I have made the 3lb mark which has been harder than ever, it seems, to achieve .....this is after 3 yrs of constant weight gain .. to lose 3 is truly amazing for me.

I eat when I'm mad or upset.  I find comfort in food.  When I turn to food I just don't care if I overeat or make the wrong food choices.  During a weak time I'll call a friend or write in my diary that seems to help me keep away from the food.

Good luck with your weight loss goals!

Congratulations!  The first 3 pounds of many!

I do fine with my cravings providing I have planned ahead for meals but it gets out of control when I am very stressed and angry.  I am supposedly a smart woman so why do I punish myself when I am mad at others?

YOU have the power and the control and you've exercised it!    What a sparkling example of a "can do" attitude and "mind over matter".  

Love your attitude and thrilled with your Success!  3 pounds is Amazing!  You've rounded the corner and so very proud of you .. 3 years of going up getting turned around .. by YOU!
