STAYING ON TRACK

So far, so good with avoiding all candy, cookies, cakes, and any other form of desert or concentrated sweet. I made it through Halloween, now I just have to get through Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, The SuperBowl, and Valentines Day!!

My motivation is that I genuinely feel better when I am not eating sweets; sugar is definitely a trigger for me to throw all of my efforts out the window and to lose my momentum and motivation. A cookie today leads to a small piece of chocolate tomorrow, and then a doughnut or piece of cake a few days later... before I know it I will be totally out of control again. I will lose all motivation and will stop exercising. I will be overeating on the "good" foods again and I will be eating fast food. A few pieces of chocolate is not worth it to me.

If you are a compulsive overeater and have not identified any specific triggers for losing control, I suggest that you take some time, do some soul-searching, and think really hard about the foods that you eat when you are out of control and what seems to trigger you to eat them.

Now is a good time to re-gain your momentum and committment to eating healthy and losing weight. By doing so, you will avoid re-gaining the weight that you have lost. I am looking forward to starting a New Year without knowing that I gained 10 addtional pounds over the Holiday Season. This will be a first for me!

I have been taking my Desert Burn Hoodia faithfully. Although I cannot say that Hoodia takes away all cravings for chocolate and candy, what it does do is make me feel full; it causes me to forget about food so that I don't obsess about things that I "think" I want to eat. I think that this supplement is going to be a lifesaver throughout the Holidays.
