That way you are not ravinous at night time. And what do you do after that pint of ice cream? You go to bed. Gosh, now your body has all these calories it just took in what to do, what to do? I know, let's store them as......(you know what)!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29019338.post-55939314031496100022008-02-28T16:05:00.000-05:002008-02-28T16:05:00.000-05:00I've tried several times to go on "diets" to "loos...I've tried several times to go on "diets" to "loose weight" .... (haven't we all?) and I've found that attempting to convince myself that celery, carrots, 1 piece of bread and other ridiculous things NEVER sticks for long. That's because no sane person actually eats those things on their own for a living. I've found more success using "baby steps" (ref. movie 'What About Bob') to weight-loss. For example, instead of trying to eat carrots/celery with NO dressing, by a lite/low fat/no fat dressing. Sure... it tastes a bit off, but it's a surrogate for the full-fat version so you don't feel like you're completely deprived of all taste. <BR/>Also, portion control makes a huge difference. The stuff you ate for dinner is not off-limits.... just give yourself pre-determined portion sizes, no seconds, and a big tall glass of water. Drinking water in between every bite (or every couple of bites) will help make you feel full sooner.<BR/>Also, I've started eating a salad before every meal... with non-fat dressing of course... usually some kind of vinegarette. The salad really helps fill some space before I sit down to eat the real food.<BR/>How's that for some unsolicited advice?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29019338.post-66926835491387630942008-02-28T09:45:00.000-05:002008-02-28T09:45:00.000-05:00This is why I'm doing weight watchers...
