Weeze Pitiful

Far and away:  planning is my bestest ever strategy. With no food present that I need to eat, i ate crap.

Second to that: get help if you need it.

My winning strategies:

1.  Planning, which involves buying the food I need ahead of time, cooking the food I need, packing the food I need, and staying on plan when I've planned to stay on plan.
2.  Measuring my food
3.  Drastically limiting eating out
4.  Moderation
5.  Exercising

Kim that food porn post was a classic

Strategies that are working so far:

1. Cooking WHOLE foods
2. Keeping blood sugar level by eating at least 4 times a day
3. Having tools to ride out cravings

Calling it food porn wasn't an original idea so I can't take credit for it.  There's a woman (eggface) who posts on the MB *****fers to her ideas/recipes/pics of food as "food porn" and when I read Mary's post, and everyone's replies, I immediately recognized it as true "food porn". 

I first heard it from Donna Marie - she referred to the Food Porn Network. LOL, just cracks me UP.

 

And Kimmie, I too also move on after breaking my food plan. Just like what we talk about in the cheat thread - that was also a powerful tool for me to not let one off goal action negate all the good work I do most of the time!

 Neecee, I find it very interesting that you should mention Donna Marie and food porn in the same sentence.  When I first met her, it was on the trashy side of OH, the plastics board.  I used to call her the "Poon Queen" cuz she had her newly lifted hoohah plastered all over the world wide web!  I loves me some Donna Marie!
