Also, if I eat it, I will immediately start drinking water to get whatever is in it - fat, salt, calories - out of my system quicker. That probably doesn't work very well, but as long as I THINK it does, it does. I admit I'm crazy that way.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15799781800542758688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-43774518896806879202012-01-29T11:56:12.272-07:002012-01-29T11:56:12.272-07:00This happens to me a lot--it's why I refuse to...This happens to me a lot--it's why I refuse to watch tv in the evenings with my dearest hubby--he eats ice cream, chips, etc. (Plus he watches CRAP that I hate!!!)<br /><br />Here's what I tell myself,<br />"It's just food. I've had it before, I'll have it again. If I want, I can have it frist thing in the morning & base the rest of my calories around it."<br /><br />But it's generally not that important to me by the morning--go figure!jen bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00624726281703465564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-17101882598445627962012-01-29T09:10:22.148-07:002012-01-29T09:10:22.148-07:00I was struggling in the beginning because Mr. Sand...I was struggling in the beginning because Mr. Sandra would open that bag of cheezies or taco's while standing right beside me and the smell would hit my nose like a wild craving. I asked him to stop doing that because it makes it very difficult for me to not dig my hand in the bag as well. So far I've been good, and he is improving (like not eating the crap around me) but it isn't easy.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03844191762138935136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-7792384747276931182012-01-29T08:25:15.771-07:002012-01-29T08:25:15.771-07:00Just wanted to pop in to say good luck to all the ...Just wanted to pop in to say good luck to all the participants - I'll be following along and cheering for you all!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12308631304554235792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-70629724535728847802012-01-29T06:43:27.761-07:002012-01-29T06:43:27.761-07:00If you saw the "mine field" of goodies j...If you saw the "mine field" of goodies just on my kitchen counters, you would shudder! <br />Was I suppose to answer this question now or tomorrow? <br />Have given it thought. Passed up on the goodies and the yummy looking steak and cheese calzone and other goodies brought into the house yesterday by others in my family with this thought in my head. The scale won't lie... if I cheat!

I do try to plan ahead because I know certain unnamed people are going to be sitting next to me eating crap in the evening. I have some snacks that I really like and are healthy and just have to plan them.Julie Lost and Foundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13802639896769099527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-20249927562527400212012-01-29T05:30:01.718-07:002012-01-29T05:30:01.718-07:00oh exciting!! good luck to them :-)oh exciting!! good luck to them :-)outdoor.momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03710198593921360121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-64425830228550991342012-01-29T03:24:33.130-07:002012-01-29T03:24:33.130-07:00I try to keep at least 150 cals in reserve for a t...I try to keep at least 150 cals in reserve for a treat around 9pm so it doesn't usually happen. but I have had days in my many years of yo yo dieting, of thinking... oh ok I will start again tomorrow, pat me that chocolate, ot that cake.

And it happens every night after dinner when he breaks out the chips/desserts, etc. In fact, when I told him on Tues nite that I was going to start this challenge Wed morn, he said "That's great baby...I'm proud of you", and walked in the kitchen and whipped up a no-bake cheesecake. (eyeroll). I'm probably not allowed to post what my thoughts are...they're too profane. ;)Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18227258052735438881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-78949639964690947972012-01-28T21:14:52.663-07:002012-01-28T21:14:52.663-07:00lol, WHERE'S MY WATER BOTTLE.
