I feel like such a baby !! I think I realise now how bad my addiction is to food. I remember a year ago when I lost some weight that is all I could think about was food and I would have to play mind games to get myself not to keep eating. When that time was going on I lost 15lbs and was feeling good about myself. Then I noticed that after my brother died that the weight slowly came back on. Now I am back to where I was before I lost the weight. What do you do when you want to eat but aren't hungry or are craving something? Thanks Jen

are you going to give in next month when you have PMS? I HOPE NOT.... just keep going... suck it up. I'm hard core babe. you are being a baby that's why you feel like one.
the thing about SBD is that the first 3 months FOOD is all you think about... after that it becomes secondary... the only times i think about it now are when i'm shopping, preparing meals or talking about it on the boards (oh wait that's pretty much all I do LOL)....
when i am not hungry physically or i'm craving a specific food and i'm not going to have it... i
a. drink water
b. drink coffee w/milk (Hot or cold)
c. chew gum (sugarless)
d. have mints (sugarless but they cause gas for me)
e. have a legal SBD protein snack like string cheese or hard boiled egg. (i ate way more of that stuff in phase 1 and early phase 2 than recommended but my concern was getting past the cravings NOT the amount of food to me that comes later)
feel free to whine any time you like.....
