I hear your frustration and fear and understand... I'll add the following two suggestions:
- Try a program like FitDay where you actually record all of the food you eat - it is an eye opening experience and makes me much more conscious of what I eat because I know I will record it. Ok, somedays I don't, especially on days when I eat m&m or a dove bar and really don't want to see the total, but then I get back to it... it's a gradual process and let's you see how much you are actually in control of what you eat
- Try putting notes to yourself in different places - for example, in the drawer where we keep the granola bars I have a note to myself that says "how about a piece of fruit instead?" I can't then be mindless about grabbing it, I have to think and consider my options. I'm not locked in to the options, just make myself think about them

I hope this helps!!!

One other thing - for those of you in the mid-atlantic DC area, the current issue of Spokes magazine has an excellent article by Nancy Clark talking about The Biggest Loser - I wish I could find it online... it's the kind of article that is good to read, and re-read periodically.
