Hi all!  I am in need of suggestions.  I think part of my problem is sugar.  Whether the real stuff or the fake stuff, I think it is sabotaging my weight loss efforts.  I get really hungry in the afternoon and it seems like no matter what I do (workout, sleep, etc.) or eat (as a snack) all I want is something sugary (candy, cakes, pie, etc.).  I am getting really frustrated because i have not lost in quite a while.  I have not been following the plan to a tea either, but I am bf my baby and I think he is going through a growth spurt because all he does is eat, and that makes me super hungry.  So, all I feel like I do is eat.  So, does anyone have any suggestions?  Has anyone ever been through this...what did you do? 

Thanks!

Dried fruit will help.  Another thing that worked great for me when I was nursing and needed a sweet fix was a snack sized bag filled with grapes or a little snack sized cup of pineapple chunks. 

Some people swear a dill pickle will cut a sweet craving.

Thanks girls!  I re-read my post, and it seems as though I am whining just a little!  lol!  I just need to put my mind to it and get over it.  Maybe i just needed to vent.  I do appreciate the suggestions and will try them.  Yes, I am at the max 12 points for nursing right now.  I am hoping it will calm down some soon as far as his eating goes.  Again, thanks for the suggestions!
