Head hunger HELP PLEASE HELP
I am only 15 lbs from my goal and my head hunger is keeping me from getting there. Why am I doing this to myself? I eat things I know that will make me feel sick. I'm only 15 lbs from goal and I so want to get there it's like I have a death wish when it comes to my weight.
Thank you all for being here when I need to vent. Birdy
Birdy, it has been my opinion that we so often do things to set our selves up for failure. I think it goes back to our past and how we just knew that we would always fail since that is what we always did. Just remember to use your tool to the fullest and remember PEW~protein, exercise and water. I heard that somewhere and I can't remember where. Could it have been here? hmmm When you up the dense protein it seems to help me. The dense stuff works for me much better than the drinks.

Birdy,
Congratulations on your surgervisary and your being within 15 lbs. of goal!!!
I don't know about you, but the food demons have never left me, I have to combat that daily and I've never been one of the folks who does not feel hunger, real or head, so what I do is to make sure I eat something small and, mostly, healthy foods, at intervals of 2-1/2 to 3 hours, and if I feel hunger, I examine what it is I am feeding. If I find it's headhunger, I make a decaf coffee, sip some water, call a friend, come here to read what's happening and usually it subsides. The hardest thing for me was and still is being home and close to the refrigerator, so I need to keep occupied when I'm there.
Sending hugs and positive thoughts your way, Laureen
