I really need this change to my lifestyle.

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.
i weigh myself once a week and no more it becomes a bad habit.

i post here and that seems to help my cravings and keeps me in line. i dont eat out any longer and also dont buy bad things at the store
