My promblem is eating alot of refined carbs. I can eat potato chips, pretzels, bread and sugary cereals all day. Thats not including icecream and sweets, what can I do to get off this vicious cycle? I am sooooo happy that I had came across this site. What a God sent!

Welcome! We're glad you're here.
I'm not sure what to advise for your problem. Have you tried substituting whole grains? Is this what you eat for meals or are you a snacker?
Tell us some more and we'll see what we can come up with for you.

Hello and Welcome!! Good Luck with your weight loss!! You can do it!!

You've definitely come to the right place for lots of support as you travel the long bumpy road to better health and fitness, Chickie.

I have managed to lick the salt habit (pun intended ). My best suggestion -- just do it. After about a week with absolutely no added salt, you will discover that the craving really diminishes. Everybody else's cooking suddenly tastes way too salty.

Unfortunately, I still crave ice cream and chocolate. So I just have to stay away from them as much as I can. And then there's peanut butter . . . . . . Don't think I'll ever come completely to grips with my PB-

Good Luck.

Thank you for the support. I would like to know, where does everyone get there weight ruler thing at? I like it. I want one too!
