Nancy is right, Allymich. It definitely is an individual thing. My issues with food and your issues with food will not be the same. Heck one of us may not even have issues with food It was mentioned before; Moderation is the key. Knowing when to say 'when' can be difficult for some people, can be difficult for some people when it comes to certain foods. What works for me may not work for you. Having read much of your Journal and many of your posts, Nancy, I think we have approached this WOE similarly; I refuse to cheat, I just cant let myself do that, I dont want to do that, not doing it has become quite the big thing for me, so much so that I make a point of not talking about it, or thinking about it too much I will cut out dairy if I think i'm indulging too much, stay away from sweets if that seems to be getting a little out of hand, work out harder if I feel i've been slacking off. Enough about me If peanut butter isnt a problem for you enjoy it.
