Complete each minute as it happens. Not some fancy thing you may see in a counseling office, but seriously focus on each minute as it happens. Be 'IN THE MOMENT'. Don't think about what you're going to do later; focus on what you are accomplishing right now. You are not 'snacking' or eating off plan right now? You are accomplishing your goals. Any small goals add up over time; they had up to pounds off. One of my most favorite proverbs is 'No single raindrop believes it is to blame for the flood.' It's the little wins and accomplishments that add up over time to the massive wins and life changing rewards. We're here with ya!

It really starts in the kitchen -- you have to purge it of all the carbs (this means sugar, cookies/cakes, crackers, potatoes, rice, pasta). If it is not easy to get to, you are less likely to binge. Maybe enlist the wife or a neighbor to help you box it all up and take it to the nearest soup kitchen. Based on your current weight, I'd skip "baby steps" and just overhaul your life to remove temptations.

We only have right now, so that is what we have to focus on. Make a plan for the future but focus on right now.

@Frosty said it best -- I don't think I've run across a single FSer yet that hasn't struggled or suffered a brief 'setback' on their journey . . . it's part of the process and knowing you can respond in a more successful fashion 'this time' as your moniker replies is part of it!
