I think I find a basic satisfaction in putting fuel in my body, but of course I'd prefer pizza to brussel sprouts. I also use food as a reward, i.e., if I'm studying, I want Sour Patch kids, etc. So, I just try to eat a ton of carrots or big fruit salads or something healthy. Other relatively guilt-free snacks include Cheerios and air-popped popcorn.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986309612430955331.post-57026094398787070942011-02-16T13:45:00.884-05:002011-02-16T13:45:00.884-05:00Anonymous 1 here.

I knew that if I had something, it would make everything better (at least for a little while). And I had a small cupcake with dinner, and everything was at peace. This was good, because I only had one, very small cupcake. However, I will totally destroy a package of Oreos if left to my own devices. I just need to build my confidence to be able to deal with problems without resorting to food.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986309612430955331.post-72301685091690042292011-02-15T20:48:58.275-05:002011-02-15T20:48:58.275-05:00I struggle with consistency!

I'll address your question directly in my response post...let me ask you one follow-up question. Is there anything you are extremely stingy about (for me it's spending unnecessary money)? I know that's a strange question, but I have learned to use negative association to help me out with that sort of temptation. I'll explain how later...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00051771986202155644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3986309612430955331.post-1277125478936218962011-02-15T17:32:48.843-05:002011-02-15T17:32:48.843-05:00How can I teach myself to NOT like certain kinds o...How can I teach myself to NOT like certain kinds of food? If I see some candy, a bag of chips, I go for it. Why? Because it's delicious and I don't see its bad side right way. I know it is a terrible way to live/eat, but how can I teach myself to go for the carrots and celery instead of the wings?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
