It's like I need a pacifier!
I need help! I admit it! I am hooked on mints!! I know that it is not at all part of the IP plan, but so far (I'm into my third week), I have justified it, believing that it's helping me to not make worse food choices. So far, my weigh ins have been great! I made it through the first week without one mint at all and had very little discomfort and lost 8lbs. Then, I started in with the mints the following week, and lost 4 lbs. So I know those are great WIs, but I also know that this indulgence is totally in the way of the chemistry of the plan. I just threw all the mints in the trash! Tomorrow is a new day. I think I am afraid of the sugar withdrawl, but I've gotta let my body go through it once and for all so I can get to the other side and accomplish my goals. I bought a bag of ice for work so I can chew and suck on those when I think I need it. That worked yesterday, but I was out of the office today and completely went nuts with the mints. I can do this...I really hope so!
