How do you all deal with the cravings, which I can tell are going to be very difficult to fight off? Also, how often do you weigh yourselves? I have heard a lot of mixed opinions on this. I am looking forward to moving ahead with this and already feel better after only 4 days with noticeably less fluid retention by the end of the day.
Thanks in advance for the support. |
You nailed it. Lifestyle change is the way to go! I couldn't be happier with mine! I don't support my cravings. I cut out all fast food and as much restaurant food as possible. If you don't put yourself in these bad situations you're not going to eat as much yukky stuff, right? I also stopped buying bad stuff at the store.
My motivation is that this is for a better me and for my family. I owe it to them.
