You lost 40 pounds and are asking for tips from us!?!

Girl-I'm not worthy to sit at the rice cake crumbs at your feet. You should be giving us advice.

So, you know how this dieting works. Once a week treats are great. Everyone should have treats once a week. The hard part is stopping at once a week. Maybe since you're having a difficult time with sweets you should eliminate them for a week or two. That should help with the craving.

Congrats on your progress and resolve. Losing 26 pounds by Christmas is ambitious but possible. I think that's around 6.5 pounds per month. IMHO it's harder going from summer into winter, though. We're here for you, though.

If there is any tips or advice anyone could give me would be much appreciated.... My problem is after dietin for so long I get this urge to eat alot of sweets and I treat myself once a week so I'm not depriving myself..am I?
