You cant eat what is not there! Rid your house of all the junk and replace it with healthy choices. Be smart when shopping--dont go while you are hungry and stick to a list of healthy foods--no impulse shopping.

This is SO important. We do not have things in the house that I do not want to put in my mouth. My husband eats the same way I do when we are home. He needs to lose weight too. He does whatever he wants when I am not around. But he is supportive enough not to rub it in my face or bring those things in the house.

I do most of the shopping but my family is good about it as well. I have explained to my son that I dont want him growing up with the same bad food habits I had-and so I always have healthy snacks instead of alot of sweets. I wish I would have been able to eat fresh fruit and veggies after school rather than cookies.

I know what you mean. My after school snack was a plate of tortilla chips with half a block of cheese on it and a coke. That was back when I was skinny. I did not realize what I was setting myself up for!
