Having a hard time getting started
![Post Post](./styles/mcd/imageset/icon_post_target.gif)
Hey folks,
I'm having a really hard time getting started, and was hoping that maybe you could give me some encouragement and advice. I'm in school part time (done in September, yay!) and have two little ones, so my life is pretty nuts.
I've been keeping a food diary over the last few days, and it's discouraging how addicted I feel to my unhealthy eating patterns. I was just wondering, how did you guys kick these habits? Did you go cold turkey? I think if I lived alone I would go cold turkey, and just throw out all the non-program food in my pantry, but living with three other people makes that really hard to do (although I'm going to run this idea past my husband before I give up on it - he's a very supportive guy and might be okay with it).
Has anyone had any success at just inching over to a new way of life?
I guess I'm just worried I can't do this. I'm really amazed at the power certain foods seem to have, namely: SUGAR. Sugar really seems to be a drug for me. Advice is welcome!
Thanks!
