It's tough but I'm managing to stay away from the "white" stuff...flour, added salt and sugar. I think I'm a bit addicted to salty food ( chips, peanuts, popcorn etc) and this is a hard habit to break. Same with sweet sugary stuff, which is a great substitute if there is no salty food to eat. Then, next in line is any carb, if salt and sugar aren't around or restricted, especially bread. Oh my...what did I get myself into. Only another 4 1/2 weeks to go. We'll see how this all unfolds. It's much easier said then done now that I'm well into this.
Other than that, I am controlling my portions better and keeping my daily calorie count under control. Those clothes in my closet are calling my name but they'll just have to wait a bit more. My goal is 162 by months end and 158 by Easter (Apr. 20).
Thank you all for your inspiring stories and support.
