Cabbage is my favorite, too.  I use strips of it to make lasagna.

Congratulations on your successes.

Welcome to the forum, nosaltnsugarpls.  Was it the first half of the bag or the bottom half of the bag?  I'm just wondering if the temptation is there for tomorrow.

We've all been there.  If your home life allows it, get a food  bank donation box out and start going through the pantry.  Read the labels and donate the high carb foods.  Then make a shopping list and head out to round up the food you need to keep from being hungry and keep your daily net carbs below 20.  Think meat, eggs, hard cheeses, green vegetables and water, water  and more water. 

We're here because we know that FTS is a healthy way of life that has helped us get slimmer and more active and happier with ourselves.  You can do it and we'll be here to help. 

If the bottom half of that bag of kisses is still around, THROW IT AWAY!

Just sayin'.

It's interesting that you add sleep to your list.  I slept for 4 to 6 hours a night for years and it was really hard to add sleep.  It took almost a year before I could get 6 to 8 hours a night.  I think it was worth the effort.  Thanks for spotlighting sleep as a factor in over all health.

The lay-off was a really good thing.  It was too good a job to give up voluntarily but leaving it behind has improved my health dramatically.  The future is bright and I'm loving the view from here.  Stress is a terrible thing, no matter how good I was at handling all the pressure.

Welcome to the forum, Steve.  I have an old-fashioned blender but I agree with Shawn about drinking your carbs.  Do it carefully.  Having the fiber left behind will help.

I think self-confidence is a benefit of knowing that you have your eating under control whether you are at your goal weight or working your way there. 

I was laid off from my job on January 23rd and laughed with a few friends that at least I'm skinny for my interviewing.  It was a huge relief to have the decision taken out of my hands.  The job was very stressful and my headaches are totally gone now that I am out from under the job requirements.  I have consulting work lined up and look forward to finishing out my career this way.

Never for a moment did I worry that I couldn't make a good first impression.  This forum helped me figure out how to live the FTS way and keeps me on track now.  For that, I am incredibly grateful.

The forum has made all the difference in the world for me.  I tell everyone who will listen.
