Ask yourself 'What am I feeling when I find myself eating while not hungry?'<br /><br />In many cases...its not a physical issue, its an emotional one.<br /><br />When I feel down or melancholy, a box of mac & cheese can do the trick. Who needs anti-depressants when you have carbs!<br /><br />Reflecting on your emotional path during your weight loss journey can be a key factor here. With awareness you begin to see a pattern and can make better choices.Jeff Neronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09877839497550984171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4886834023809652263.post-13144819732016146802009-09-10T09:15:37.332-05:002009-09-10T09:15:37.332-05:00I feel you dog.

Since I am at the beginning of my weight loss journey it's nice to see someone who's well into their's...very encouraging. So I know you are a pro at this compared to me, but the teeth brushing thing is what I do very often, just something about the taste of toothpaste in my mouth makes thinking of food disgusting! Also, cuz I AM a person who eats when I'm bored I CANNOT have any food out laying around....ever. It all has to be in it's container, in the cabinet and behind the closed door! Totally out of sight! With the exception of the bowl of fruit on my table that gets constantly refilled so it's an easy grab! I don't know about how things work once you've gotten as far as you have, but I do know you've been amazingly strong to make it where you are and you will make it through this too. You don't seem to give in about anything, this isn't gonna beat you either!CountryGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03139341699585789651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4886834023809652263.post-28082881655315322692009-09-06T13:04:28.458-05:002009-09-06T13:04:28.458-05:00Yeah, those BLTs (bites, licks and tastes) can be ...Yeah, those BLTs (bites, licks and tastes) can be murder, and you hit on my other problem, too: when I start eating, I tend to keep eating. <br /><br />But it sounds like you're also like me in another aspect: even when you're being "bad", you're not being as bad as you used to be. That's progress, my friend.<br /><br />Sharpen your focus and just try to slow down the whole process. I examine the crap out of what I'm eating, why I'm eating it and how quickly I'm eating it. <br /><br />My other secret weapon is brushing my teeth, flossing and rinsing with mouthwash. It's funny, but after that, the thought of putting food in my mouth doesn't seem so appetizing. It's like my brain takes it as a signal that the "closed" sign is up for the tummy.Cole Walter Mellonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14792991151019418800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4886834023809652263.post-61039659400387461672009-09-06T07:24:37.312-05:002009-09-06T07:24:37.312-05:00I have been through a time in my not-so distant pa...I have been through a time in my not-so distant past where I was going through something very similar to this. I knew I had to tighten the program up a bit, as I felt my control slipping away gradually (I am not saying that is what is happening to you, but it was to me). Finally, one morning I woke up and said enough was enough, I got back on program, cut out the "acceptable" cheating, and the weight loss has begun again.<br /><br />I think your goals sound great. Stick to them and you will do fine.South Beach Stevehttp://www.logmyloss.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4886834023809652263.post-21577594562512142672009-09-06T02:55:29.092-05:002009-09-06T02:55:29.092-05:00Hello!

I completely understand what you're talking about re: eating when you're not hungry and needing a plan to become more mindful of when you're eating. Good for you for mapping out a few ideas. I hope it works for you! I am a big emotional eater and need to put into practice a few "food distractions." Keep up the great blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
