The thought of eating fast food makes me sick.

I AGREE ! Fast food kills / sugar fat salt is now KNOWN as a lethal addictive formula specifically designed to spark dopamine and RING the $$ register. I will go farther to say I have never met or spoken to ANYONE that has lost over 200 lbs (and kept off) and still eats "fast food". I also have yet to meet a single person that has lost over 200 lbs and believes they "deserve" a "little" cake or candy etc... A New life requires New Life!

280 lbs Lost all diseases reversed

You look amazing!! Very good job. I do eat dark chocolate but not every day. I know from the past years of dieting I can not totally be without or I will go crazy with eating. Today I had pizza for lunch and stopped when I had enough. Right now I am eating my salad before dinner. I have never used Salad Dressing in my life so I know my salad is very low cal. You make it seem more possible for us banders when you post your weight loss, thank you very much, again.

Thank you and I really like your positive attitude ! So please take this feedback knowing I give it with the caring heart of a person that was on an oxygen machine, given two years to live and a prisoner of my body. It's more than a unlikely to believe you will achieve a large weight loss and maintain it when you chose to believe that "Chocolate" or pizza is your friend or shield from insanity when in fact it is your enslaver. That being said / I hope that you are successful and maybe you don't need to drop BIG pounds. I have met people that can still eat that stuff and lose 100 (or slightly more) or less but NOBODY that has lost over 200 and KEPT it off.

Hope in Your Future is Power in your Present,

I totally agree Lee, losing the amount of weight we did required a massive amount of self denial and re-adjustment to eating. I do understand that fast food has become such an issue that its almost up there addiction wise to drugs/alcohol/cigs etc.

I am in maintenance mode so i do allow myself the odd moment of home cooked treats like a fruit cake, or home baked oat Cookies but i control the calories and the ingredients, it is mainly made only with wholewheat flour, there is no fat added or extra sugar so i dont feel food like this is addictive or harmful, i make any recipe i cook as healthy as possible, it seems to work for me and taste much better than anything i can buy in the shops.

Hi Cazzy,

That makes sense - its an adjusted item being much healthier and significantly limiting or eliminating the addictive ingredient AND your already at goal. For me, it would still be problematic but each of us is diff.

Congrats on your Freedom n success : )
