I doubt people know this, but I am not big into completely cutting out sweets and snack type foods. I just don’t think this is feasible. I really like what one of my roommates does. She buys the snack foods, but she keeps them in the highest shelf in the house, and not in the typical pantry area. That way: a). they aren’t the first thing she sees when she opens the pantry to get herself something to eat. b). She has to go through a bit of work to get them down when she wants them (so if she doesn’t really want them, she won’t put through the extra effort. I think its a great idea, and thought I would share. And as for why I didn’t start my diet today after all please see my regular blog :)
