I am on my 3rd day of SB and doing good I think my only downfall might be snacks I have been doing good, but and as always there is a but I think I over do it w/ the nuts. I bought them knowing I could eat them as a snack but 1 oz turns into 2 or 3 oz especially when I get home and I am cooking dinner I have done good avoiding carbs thats not the problem. It is having snacks around that I like

I know I can do this just have to keep moving so I have lost 43lbs following Spark People and I love them just need a puch cause the weight loss has slowed down

See ya

Hi Mo,


A couple of ideas: count out the nuts and put them into snack-sized baggies. Allow yourself one per day. Also, try some sliced veggies dipped in SB friendly salad dressing while you are cooking dinner.


Just curious: what is ?

I am also hooked I love that site it is very user friendly and so are the people I have meet and chatted w/. I would have not made it this far w/o them. I know there are WW lifers who do SP more they say teh support is better and it is almost the same.

See ya
