I'll try and drink a TON of water, just to see if its a craving or actual hunger that I'm feeling.

Try substituting something else too...like if what you really want is some salty potato chips, go for something else kinda salty but better for you like a handful of almonds.

And I like what gadzooks said-try getting online and look for a low cal low fat option! Most of the time when I start doing that I can distract myself from feeling hungry anyways...of course then when you find a really good recipe you need to actually make it haha.

Peanut butter chocolate chip? I'm sold =) My friend has been singing the praises of vitamuffins for a week now so it's good to hear that they're worth it.  I'll have to look for them sometime.

Thanks for the response!

sketchbookbirds- I totally agree! One of my faves.  I'm a pretty frequent visitor to Jason's, if you can't tell  =)

pudpie- It's so true...a salad, how could that be unhealthy?! But it all kinda adds up. I guess we're both going to have to be more observant in the future!

feanor- I'm usually not an obsessive calorie counter, I was just kind of disappointed I guess. You're right, I should just pay more attention to whats high calorie.  It does make a lot of sense about calories in nuts when you put it that way! It's just annoying because I LOVE nuts, any kind.  And they just feel like they should be healthy! Well, they are healthy...just not low-cal. 

Today, at least, was Dragonforce, all the way. The song Soldiers of the Wastelands, esp.

Or anything by Three Days Grace...really anything that has a hard beat to it that keeps my attention.

Remixes of anything work really well because of the beat, at least for me. Gets your heart rate up and your mind pumped.  =)

Jabbawockeez, I'm sure. I think over all more people will like them for their style, they're just really cool in everything they do. I really love kaba modern though. It'll definitely be the two of them in the finals!

Haha...that reminds me, a few months ago I felt so sure it was that time...and I thought, heck, why not have some kind of comfort? So I completely pigged out, and I mean I pretty much tore the pantry apart. Like I was eating ice cream and half a pizza and like a whole box of fiddle faddle in one day (LOVE that stuff!)  Anyways, as it turned out I wasn't even really due for another week and by the time it was all said and done I'd gained about 3 pounds over one week, no joke.  I've never had a binge like that before, and hopefully never again!

All horror stories aside, I completely agree with all this.  You can always make it up later, and even though I felt kinda stupid after that week, it was pretty nice having one week of "vacation."  Afterwards, I got right back on track and have been losing ever since.  =)
