Are you seeing a T, spoiltmom?

Is the problem merely with portion control or is it also food choice selection? A lot of us make poor choices on what we'll snack on in the first place. Then, adding difficulty regulating portions, we've got a problem.

I'd advise you to go through your refrigerator and cupboards and get rid of all the unhealthy snack foods. Replace them with rice cakes, air popcorn popper & popcorn, fresh fruit, vegetables, lean meats, whole grain cereals and bread, yogurt, popsicles, ...

Whenever the urge to munch does strike, you can chow down on celery and carrot sticks. Or have an apple and some popcorn. Just get used to the idea of not adding salt & butter or caramel. It isn't an easy adjustment to make, but it is a lot easier when you don't buy these temptations to begin with. So, get tough ~ you can do it!

Big hugs to you!! Go spoiltmom go!!
