I'm struggling with the same issue. I know to keep my cholesterol down without taking meds (which I don't want to do), I have to curtail my eating sugar in the form of chocolate. I eat really well otherwise with a few overeating sessions here and there, but chocolate is my downfall. I try to keep it out of the house but then I buy it and eat it.
I love fruits and veggies of all kinds and eat them alot. I know if I can cut out the chocolate my numbers will start moving in the right direction.

First let me start off my congratulating you on beating Colon Cancer. My watched my grandma die from it so I can understand what a tough fight it can be. I am so happy to hear you have defeated it, and get a second chance at life. Best of luck :)

I have the same problem. The best thing I have done is get rid of all the junk so I don't have the temptation. It can be hard, but it's sort of a sacrifice you have to make to get healthy. If that's to tough perhaps before you decide to eat something not so good for you. Think about the consequences. It can be a major set back to your success. Would you rather eat it now and be satisfied for a few minutes, or put it down and be satisfied with the results you get from not eating it. Not to mention how proud you will be of yourself for having the power to put it down!

Best of luck! I do hope you find something that works for you :)

It's great that you did so well fighting colon cancer, congratulations. Losing weight is really different than other kinds of change, because we do have to eat. So we grapple with food constantly. Do you have a plan for losing weight? A plan that you have thought about carefully, and that you feel has a good chance of working for you? A plan will help. And if doesn't work, adjust, adjust, adjust, until you find the right combination of things that will work for you. Will power is a hard one. All I can say about it is that you have to want the change more than you want to put the bad stuff in your mouth. When that happens, will power falls into place.
