hey everyone! About 2 weeks ago I out of curiosity tried a snack size miniature kit kat you know the ones we buy for the trick or treaters. I ate 1 stick of the mini and was fine.. then later ate the other stick.. Now I did that 3 days in a row.. so then I tried a whole miniature in one sitting.. was fine.. Now I find that I have been eating 1 miniature kit kat bar 1 to 2 times per day just because I can! What is wrong with me!?!?!? I know that it cant just be the kit kat bar its only like 90 or 120 calories but I havnt lost any weight in almost 3 weeks too! I am stuck at 182~ I had to confess... maybe I will stop. I am just scared that I will keep doing it and or try other things and revert to old habits! Thanks for listening! Jen

I can honestly say that I'm sitting in the same boat you are.......since I don't dump on sweets, it's twice as hard to stay away from the candy.

I am SOOOO there with you! However, I DO know how quickly I got so outta hand and lost myself in all those calories. Heres what I do. I say "I want a kit kat" Then I ask myself "Have I had my protein yet?" Then, if not, I eat that. Then I say "I will have the kit kat when I am hungry, later!" Then I hopefully get busy and forget....BUT if I dont then I reason with myself and tell myself 2 things! 1. Is that chocolate worth it? After I eat it, will it have been worth stalling me/ helping me fail? 2. Is there something here that is better for me that is just as quick to eat? Because even though I KNOW I can have that kit kat IF I REALLY want it.....Do I REALLY want it? I dunno if it will help you but it helps me. GRRRRR......That chocolate...it taunts us....

God Bless, Lisa

Do you know how many of us have been there and done (or do) that? I "bought" my kids' Halloween candy from them just so I could throw it out! It was calling my name. I know how scarry it is to be going through what you are. There are some days you couldn't force feed me something sugary and other days you couldn't stop me forcefully! I believe the surgery is the best tool we'll ever have, however, it is ultimately a tool that we have to use. By the way, there's nothing wrong with you!!! We aren't "cured" of our food struggles but it is something we have to be aware of. Congratulations on being not only aware but concerned enough to post, get support and do something about it. Yeah! One of the things that helps me is when I feel like I'm reverting back to old habits...I remember that if I indulge in my old habits that made me heavy, guess what....I'll be heavy. If I want to be healthy and strong, I have to practice the habits that got me to be healthy and strong. The choice is mine. When I look at it that way, it helps. I hope it maybe helps you too.

I can sympathize with you , so much . Thank god I found out early on that I do dump . It was on diiluted apple juice . I have no will power , especially with candy . That's how I got like this . The smell of the kids' halloween candy is like torture to me . I let them have 4 pieces a day & then I put it up . Good luck . Kathy

I haven't eaten "real" candy 'cause I'm too chicken. and I am only 6 weeks out. I do know how you feel though. Yesterday I found the joys of sugar free dove dark chocolate. I can only eat one because of the sweetness, it's enough. Good luck with the "chocolate monster"

Blessed are the cracked; for it is they who let in the light.
