MUNCHIES???

Lately i find myself munching...a lot. I've gotten to where I don't have an eating schedule. I'm just munching all throughout the day. I've been stuck at my current week for a few weeks now. I'm having trouble getting focused and on track again. Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions for getting back on the right road? Thanks!

Digress, Go back to what you were doing when you first had the surgery. DILIGENCE!

Deanna, it's very important to schedule your three meals for the same times daily; are you getting in a minimum of 64 oz water daily? Could you make a goal of increasing that amount? Are you tracking everything you eat every day? It helps to see it on paper. Modify your pattern, and make certain you're not munching out of boredom. Step up the exercise, find other activities to do and hopefully you won't be interested in munching anymore. You'll want to nip this in the bud right now, because we're so new out of surgery, and this is prime time to incorporate healthy habits to ensure long-term success with our journeys. I'm so proud of your honesty here, and best of luck to you. Hugs, Patti

Thank you so much for your advice! I had some personal tragedies right at the time I had my surgery, so my focus wasn't on my eating. I just did what I had to to get through the day. But, I've got to start focusing and the things you said are very helpful. I haven't been drinking enough water or writing down what I've been eating. That will be my goal this week. I will do my best to get on track. Thanks again! This is the push I needed. Have a great day! Deanna

All of your ideas for her I will be using too. I have found myself snacking too. Thanks to you all.
