It gets easier!!! I am on day 11 and so far no cheating. I feel like if I did cheat once I would keep slipping up here and there. I had headachaes and was very agitated the first few days. I was easily set off. Now I feel so happy and optimistic. Hang in there!
I'm on day 3 and everywhere I look, there is food. :p My co-worker ate a sub at his desk (right next to me!), my son's cartoons only talk about food, there's food all over Facebook! I think it helped that I left the house at dinner time yesterday and the day before.
