Trying to be focused on eating when I’m hungry and not when I am bored. I realized I need to do meal prep so that the food is ready when I am hungry. Reaching for quick snacks and candy derails my goals. Exercise and more water needs to be added to my routine too.

Go you. I'm getting an unnatural amount of pleasure out of leaving a quarter cabbage on the bench at home, and when I am peckish for something to munch, ripping some off and eating it. I've developed a craving for cabbage and cauliflower and on the keto with no sugar, they now taste incredibly sweet to me.... (They're also the only roughage I'm getting. TMI?) Also: I have been buying the flavoured fizzy water in cans lately. I pretend I'm having a soft drink but actually it's only unsweetened soda water. I'm enjoying it.... :)

Planning, prepping and logging are such a help to me! I make little snack bags full of veggie snacks, fruit, etc. It's a big help!👍

Great progress! I would personally just throw out all that candy. What really helps me is not having any food near me.

Meal prepping is a great tool!! Plus, I make sure to eat 4-6 oz protein plus, good fats each meal. For me, it helps w satiety so I don’t want to snack. Constant snacking makes it hard for insulin levels to drop back down. High carb meals make hungry within a couple of hours so again I focus on high protein moderate fat. I wait 4-5 hours in between meals. Drink lots of water. On weekends, it may be 3-4 hours but, the not snacking has helped reverse my type 2 diabetes.
