Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 Meaghan, I'm glad you'll be writing your food journal. Somehow when I read what others are eating it helps to keep ME in line. And gives good suggestions for a change in what I eat. All I can say is you are doing so much better than I am right now. The only thing I could see would be the chocolate, BUT...... we're not supposed to deny ourselves those little pleasures once in a while right? Looks to me like you're doing great in the fruit/veg/water dept. Since you haven't been able to exercise that could be why you've hit a plateau? Be careful and don't go back with a vengeance, or you may reinjure yourself!! I think once you get back to your regular routine, things will start moving again. Lots of luck to you.

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 Meaghan, Have you ever tried the Smart Ones Chocolate Frozen treats? They last much longer than candy and are real chocolaty And 100 calories. You would love to live in my house. My DH works for one of the major candy companies and all our closets are filled with samples. Makes it very difficult to stay on track!!

Now he's getting the WIlly Wonka stuff (which breaks teeth if you're not careful) and thank goodness I don't care for that as much as the chocloate. I've just had to say NO, since I've made this decision to change. And also gotten SO sick from eating so much, I can almost forget it's here. But occasionally it does call my name!!!

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 Sue, Thank you for the reply. Cholcolate is my downfall. I don't just allow myself to have it once in awhile either. Normally I have it everyday, but I'm working on it-lol. (Hey atleast now it's not after every meal.) I need to get more tootsie rolls, because I can eat just two of the mini ones and be satisfied, and they're much better for you then dove chocolate.

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 I'm the same way, I HAVE to have some small dessert every day, or I end up bingeing on dessert the next day. I am trying to train myself to at least settle for less sinful desserts a few times a week... like jello with fat-free whip cream... but that chocolate usually comes calling my name the next day!

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 -Sue, No I've never tried those but I just wrote them on my shopping list. Thanks for the advice. Since I CAN'T give up chocolate, it may as well be decent chocolate that I consume!!!!! I don't know what I would do if I had all that candy around. You must have awesome will power.

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 -Jette, You are a woman after my own heart. I figure why eat if you can't have chocolate too. Sue suggested Smart Ones Cholcolate Frozen Treats. I'm going to try them. I don't care if it's the real stuff, so long as it tastes like chocolate. I'm very proud of myself though. I made brownies the other night for the kids and they actually made it to the oven....(I LOVE BROWNIE BATTER). I didn't even have one taste of the batter and only had about 1 " by 1/2 " piece. Now they are gone and that is all I had. I was impressed with myself for that one-lol.

Meaghan ....Oh, I thought I had wrote that till I realised it said " (Hey atleast now it's not AFTER every meal.) " Not " (Hey atleast now it's not INSTEAD OF or FOR every meal.) " LOL Ya, those mini tootsie rolls are good - you get plenty of chewing in to help satisfy :-) Ang > > > > Meaghan, > > I'm glad you'll be writing your food journal.
