wussypuff,
I wish I lived near you! You can do this! If you feel weak...come here! Have you tried putting up a flier at the school or at the grocery store to see if anyone in your town is doing this? I'm sure there is. Maybe you could find a workout buddy too. That always helps!
What is happening in your life that makes you cheat? What type of situation are you in and who are you with when this happens?

Smile,

When you cheat, it's only you that you hurt. You are too good a person to hurt, aren't ya? You are worth treating well.

One thing that helps me when I get the urge to munch is having fresh vegetables. When I want potato chips I slice up a cucumber and use a low carb salad dressing for dip.

If that doesn't work I get some pork rinds. I found that after the first 2 weeks, it was alot easier, and after the first month, it's become a habit. While I still want to cheat from time to time, I don't keep cheatables in the house, and all I have left is healthy stuff.

If my husband or the kids bring cheatables home, they eat them then and there, and they aren't allowed hanging around (why tempt fate ;)). It helps us all. With it not here all the time, someone actually has to take the time to go and get it. By that time, the urge to munch has usually passed :).

You can do it, and everyone here understands, and have been there a time or two, including me. I definately understand how you feel. Good luck, and remember you are NEVER alone in the diet wars.
