Cheezits are my weakness too! I think they put a lil bit of cocaine in them.

Especially those new extra crispy ones (or whatever they're called...).

You have to lose the mental load before you can lose the physical one. OP, you've got this. Everything you need is already inside you.

Go buy this book, Atomic Habits:

https://www.amazon.com/Atomic-Habits-Proven-Build-Break/dp/0735211299

(I swear I'm the author )

But the book does a great job of explaining how concepts like "will-power" doesnt actually exist. And its about cues and environment.

If you want to install a new habit, its not about wanting to do it, its about creating the environment conducive to doing it.

and its the flip for breaking a habit. If you want to stop doing something, you have to identify the cues or the environment that initiates it and changes those things.

I'm oversimplifying a 300 page book, but honestly, the book is amazing.

I use the concept of habit-stacking to help introduce so many helpful things in my life

Cheez-its are my #1 weakness too.

I have tried lots of programs in the past that have worked for me for years on and off (Jenny craig, Ideal Protein, WW, nutritionist), but I am on medication now for immune issue makes me so tired, which makes me lazier with eating habits. The weight has been creeping up again for a few years. Even with a lot of exercise I can't get it off.

I'm trying intermittent fasting now but nothing extreme - just eating during the same 8-10 hours (like 8 or 10am-6pm) and not after 6pm if I can help it because most of my binging/grazing tends to be later in the evening. It seems like I have given myself permission to eat "normally" during the 8 hours and I think I am losing weight.

I'm a cheez-it PP. The only reason I'm not eating them right now is because of IF

Do you want to do a big change? I'm doing this program (BodySmart Fitness) that has a big focus on mindset with dieting + exercise. There is a coach, and small goals. It's expensive $2800 for 4 months, but I find that it's changing my approach to eating, and it's not a diet where you eliminate things. Instead if focuses on making different choices within a calorie elimination framework. I found them on Instagram (I know) and followed them for a while before I joined. I'm a month in and I'm finding that I'm not binging, but I'm also able to have a glass of wine, or plan for pizza night. I feel like I can stick to it because it doesn't feel like I have to quit everything all at once. Also, the dude who started it is from the UK I think and I dig all the accents. If anything you an follow them on social and see if it's interesting.
