[QUOTE="Janna, post: 19760, member: 2737"] I signed up for that site, too, it looks really cool. My attitude toward weight loss right now is in the toilet, but I know I really need to do something. I did quit smoking, I tried to do both, smoking and weight, first of this year, but didn't get far. I don't miss the ciggys, but I just cannot give up the food. And the thing that confuses me, is I'm fine most of the day. I wake up in the A.M., have a bowl of oatmeal. Around 10 AM, I have a piece of fruit (and if I'm really hungry I'll add a yogurt). Usually around 12:30, I feel a bit hungry, and I'll get my lunch. Keep in mind, I have to FORCE myself to eat the oatmeal, the fruit at 10, and maybe 2x a week, I'll be hungry to add that yogurt. Then, lunch. I was trying to mix things up a bit so I didn't get bored. I changed from white bread to low calorie wheat. I tried 3 different brands over a few weeks. I disliked them ALL. I felt like I was eating cardboard. Healthy Choice lunch meats. 4 slices, just what the serving suggestion is. No mayo. Mustard (less calories, no fat). Fat free cheese, lots of lettuce. Baby carrots with the sandwich. Some days, low sodium, low calorie soups. That was all good, for about 2 weeks, then I got sick of them. My food choices are slim, too. I don't like many raw veggies. I see alot of the low fat or low calorie dinner recipes and gag. We're meat and potato people here. I mean, how can you make THAT low calorie? Anyway, even with the lunch I was getting sick of, I was okay. Then, 3:00 hits. From then on, it's over for me. I get hungry. Not even hungry, I feel famished. I tried a 2nd yogurt, another piece of fruit with it. I have tried rice cakes. I have tried rice cakes with yogurt. I've tried rice cakes with peanut butter. I've tried extra celery, baby carrots, all kinda stuff. I'm starving, not hungry, starving, every 30 minutes from 3 PM until bed. What the heck????????????????????????? So, then I gorge. Eat and eat and eat. I eat dinner. I eat alot of dinner. I'm sitting here, 9 PM, eating popcorn. Not air popped, fat free popcorn. Some stuff SO made, from a bag, extra butter, LOL - with a Pepsi, no less. I do drink tons of water through the day, but geez, too much water just makes me want to gag. And forget exercise. I have no time. I have no patience. I have no time. I want to be thin so bad I can taste it. I have absolutely no will power. I cannot make it through one day. Not one. So frustrating. Janna [/QUOTE]
