Hey - don't beat yourself up! Figure it this way, you use to eat

like that 7 days a week, last week you did it 1 time instead of 7.

Sounds like a vicortry to me :-)

dipping (salsu is fat free and VERY low calorie and hot stuff speed

the motabolism) - also, pringles has new fat free chips as well. I

always keep fat free pretzles on had and some form of lower calorie

and lower fat something that I can replace my old munchy attacks with)

ne,

I know, it's easy to be hard on yourself. I have done it many times.

But as everyone else told you, it was one time. It is soo important to

remind yourself that this is a new " lifestyle " . There will be ups and

downs. The thing is how often they happen and how you react to them.

Stop kicking yourself and just learn from it. A key to a new lifestyle

is portion control. It is alright to have treats, just only allow

yourself to have only a portion. It takes a real conscious effort but

if you remind yourself how you felt after that and think of how you did

all week and what you want to do, you will get the strength and resolve

to say NO next time. Other things that work are before giving in to a

temptation:

Drink a glass of water

Brush your teeth

Find something busy to do- go for a walk, fold some clothes, come here

and post, just something to get your mind off the food for at least 10

min.

If you still want the food, go ahead! Dish up or count out only a

portion. Take small bites, chew slowly and enjoy. I know eating slow is

hard but the theory is if you eat slowly you get more satisfaction and

eat less. It works for me, most the time. Again, like I said, it takes

a real conscious effort. Some serious soul searching. Asking yourself

what you really want? Is it worth it? What do you want more, short term

gratification or long term success. That thinking process has helped me

a lot. Hope it helps you too.

yay on your loss! personally I think naked popcorn tastes like

styrofoam....lol...but I'm glad you can eat it ;-) I treat myself

usually once a week to 2 cups of orville redenbacher's cheddar or

butter flavoured popcorn and a diet pepsi. Usually on Thursday while

watching ER. LOL I measure the popcorn out in the kitchen and leave

the rest there, i'm just too lazy to get up and get more. That's

usually the only night I munch after 8 during the week, so I don't

feel so bad. Hey, I haven't had any this week (was cleaning on

thursday), i can have some tonight! YUM

Thanks.

I like those mini bags of Orville Redenbacher's Smart Pop for the office.

They're just the right size, but I can only find them in one store around

here. I think it's such a great idea, I can't understand why they're so hard

to find. I'd think they'd be good for vending machines too. A regular sized

bag is really too much, although I've been known to sit there and cram one

into my face kernel by kernel.
