Tiki – yes; we all should keep posting when we’re having trouble keeping OP. It's a really good thing to do, I think. Something about keeping connected perhaps…
Megan – congratulation on getting back in the saddle! You go girl!
Hannah – oh yes, I too have those hungry days! What works best for me is to eat more from the morning on; to keep myself feeling full and satiated, and not deprived. Nothing triggers my overeating like the feeling of deprivation (which helps explain why dieting is so difficult!
) If I eat enough early in the day (more breakfast, more lunch, more midmorning snack, etc) – the hunger usually goes away later in the day. I’m talking about eating the same foods as I normally do, but more of it. And cutting back the next day if possible.

Trixi – congratulations on staying OP. I’ve found journaling very helpful too!
As for me – I’m having some old head-stuff going on. I have been a yoyo-dieter for as long as I can remember, so I’m pretty good at losing weight (*and* at gaining weight) – but not so good at maintaining.
I’m on my second month of weight maintenance (after my most recent weight loss), and I’m having problems keeping my motivation up; I feel bored, stuck, nothing happens, etc. There’s definitely more drama and action in the weight loss period, not so much in maintaining!
