I'm just like you Lindsay, I don't even have to be hungry to want something to eat. Usually it is salty things, but sometimes it is sweets - there's just no telling.

Sandy, usually I don't keep tempting snacks in the house either - but sometimes when I'm in the snacky mood, I can eat plain bread and butter - it doesn't matter, I just have to put something in my mouth.

Sometimes I have so much willpower and I won't snack at all in the evenings for days/weeks. Then all of a sudden it will come on me and it's like I have NO willpower at all and I eat eat eat for days/weeks - I gain weight, then I feel terrible. It takes soooo long now to lose it. But when I'm in the snacking mode, I KNOW it will take forever to lose what I gain and I will be miserable - but I eat ANYWAY.

I think I am psychotic - or irrational, at least.

I love you girls!

Last night was my night. I was wearing out the kitchen drawers looking for something to munch on, ate a banana - but that didn't work, played on the computer - that didn't work, finally went to bed!

I was my goal weight, much to my surprise, about 2 or 3 weeks ago. So why is my stomach not flat? Anyway, no sooner did I get off the scale, that I went shopping and came home with all sorts of junk food. I have been eating modified junk food since! It's the carbs I need.

I'm going to join WW online. Now that I'm used to cutting back on carbs, I think I can work with their program,, which I like. I really need to be accountable to somebody!

I snack on Fiber One frosted flakes. I have 2 or 3 bowls during the day. They are sweet, chewy, have some crunchy things in their, and tons of fiber. WW lowers their points depending on how much fiber is in a food. I also use low fat chocolate syrup. I would have had that banana with some chocolate syrup on it Sandy. Much more satisfying. I also make a kind of mousse with fat free Cool Whip and some of this chocolate syrup.

My taste buds are not all that fussy, so these things satisfy me. I do need my bread though. I don't want to cut all carbs out.

Those are really great ideas, Judy. I do WW in my head all the time - I guess I need to be accountable to someone too - because I'm pretty hit or miss these days with my point totals!!! LOL!
