I have such bad will power

[stephk]

Hehe feeling better about my Camembert binge on Sunday night now half a Camembert and crackers with wine was my dinner

Don't even talk to me about cheese! I'm one of those people who only need a suggestion of food and I want it LOL I feel better about it now though. This is only my first cycle since ds4 and so only started the diet a few weeks ago. If I can finish off this cycle and go into the next with improved will power then I'll feel good about it.

Plus I think sometimes if you spend hrs thinking about it, eat some poor substitute, and then maybe still cave in that is much worse. Eat and enjoy! And I like Atomic's idea of knocking off a meal if it is a big treat

But my mentality is definitely very boy. I don't seem to feel any real kick from managing to stick on the diet on good days. But I do still love love love eating a big slice of cake, or fantasizing about the huge meal I will order when we are pregnant

Oh yeah no I know about this stuff I can see exactly why I have 4 boys.
I've also never dieted in my life so think this is going to take some time to get used to.

it gets easier - i have also never been on a diet in my life! There will be good days and bad days but remember that less is still less. Having less of whatever overall will still sway pink.

That's good to know. I'm def eating less over all lol

It gets better Mother of boys I promise you!!!. I really struggled when I first started the diet as I've never been on a strict diet either........... I just thought to myself, how can I ever stick to this diet!!!. Being honest, it did take about 2-3 weeks then I was ok with it all.
Deffo treat yourself at least once a week, I do and the bonus is...... Chocolate is good for a Pink sway .....
Also cheese is Ok in moderation. My friend has cheese all the time and is vegetarian and has 2 girls
Good luck xx

So glad to hear others who struggled got the hang of it. Hopefully by the time my next cycle starts I'll be doing fine

To be honest, I've been on the diet since March and I'm only now feeling better about it. I realized this morning this is the longest I've ever attempted a diet and stuck with it (for the most part). Not snacking is getting easier (less snacking...I still do here and there because I also have no will power). It's like if I eat 2-3 chips, I end up having a crap load. I'm more likely to want to eat chips than sweets though.
Good luck, it will get easier as time goes on and you feel more confident and knowledgable about what's in food.
