Will power is the best answer I have I'm on my 10th day. I'm feeling less restricted but I know what I want and that to loose weight. Keep you eye on the prize. We can do this!!!

Head hunger and eating just because it is there I believe are the 2 biggest hurdles. I have had to rid my house of all unhealthy Snacks. Then there are times that I will realize I am eating a snack and I am not even hungry. We fall into well this is time I am suppose to eat mode. Like it was when I was kid, you ate a snack when you get home from school. When I get off work (I work at a school), I feel like I need a snack and many times I not really hunry.

I have got to get back to asking myself- okay am I really hungry or can I wait? If I want a small something I grab a handful of grapes or blueberries.

You can have a snack...especially if its a healthy choice.if your tracking your calories you should be fine...no worries. I keep telling myself that a couple of hunger cramps aren't going to hurt me. Know your doing great!!

Band hell sucked so badly. I hatred every second of that. But know that it won't last long. Keep the FOCUS during this time. All good things come to those who wait.
