Havent been on this board for a while, so Hello to All! I was banded back in early January of this year and have accomplished amazing results with the band and with my health. I have lost almost 20 inches on my waist, off 4 of my 5 daily medications and over 120 pounds to date. I have followed my 1200 calorie a day plan to a tee.

But all of a sudden, right after the change in season and temperatures. I have been going off my plan and craving Snacks and junk like chips and stuff.

I think it gets harder the further out we all are. I know there are times I get hungry and I even have cravings for some junk food. I am in maintenance now so I give myself a little more freedom in having the occasional treat. However, it can be hard to rein in the bad eating.

One thing that has worked for me is that if I find the cravings getting out of control then I do one or two days of liquid protein shakes only, then a few days of only high protein foods. That usually breaks the junk cravings for me!

It is a balancing act to find out what works best for you!!

Good luck you can beat those junk foods that are calling your name.

Wow jojo congrats! That is an amazing weight loss.
