It's so encouraging to hear from everyone who is losing. I had put myself on a plateau recently, by dieting and then over snacking. Which meant I wasn't going anywhere, up or down. I let some new changes in my life affect me wrongly. It didn't take long to realize if I wanted to keep losing I would have to get control of my snacking and quit using them for comfort food.
I started putting 5 legal snacks into a bag in the morning and as I felt the need to nibble, I would pull out a pre-planned snack and eat with no guilt.
It has worked great for me because there is no on- the- spot decision making. It has to be a mind over matter, but I can't believe how much better I am doing now. Thanks laparshall for the great tip!!
Walked at the park this morning and enjoying my day!! :-D
