I think I do better when I'm prepared too. If I think ahead about what I'm going to eat for the day, I'm more likely to stick to it.
What really makes me fall off the wagon though, is when I let myself get too hungry. If I'm really starving, I eat whatever is most convienent, and I eat is fast. Way too fast, and end up eating so much more than I need, because I am trying to get that 'full' feeling. I know it takes awhle for your brain to catch up with your stomach, and I tend to just keep eating till it does. Then I feel miserable.
I try to combat this, by not letting it happen in the first place, and by realizing what I'm doing, and making a conscience effort to stop. Slow down -- drink a big glass of water. But it's not easy. It's such a strong urge, to eat and eat and eat. But, I'm trying, and I'm doing better.
