Hi Valerie,

I know exactly how you feel. It is so hard. I have been trying 
since March and these last few weeks have finally stuck so just keep 
trying. What seemed to help me the most is forgetting about having 
the healthiest food on my plate and making sure it was full. This 
seemed to keep me from starving until the next meal. I tried not to 
feel guilty because I was not having broiled fish and green 
vegetables. I was just trying to stick to a pattern. Trying to 
change a habit was my first goal and still is. It will be three 
good weeks tomorrow but today for some reason I am more hungry and I 
felt very draggy so I did have a small glass of soda. We aren't 
robots. The weekends have definitely been S days. It is a 
process. Trying to undo many years of bad habits can't happen over 
night. 

Be patiet with yourself.
