Regarding your post... The reward system works best with something that is "cold turkey" quitting, but it does work with dieting! The trick is 1: to buy something that IS a goal. Like a pair of jeans one size down from what you are. When you get down to that size, TaDa! you get to wear the jeans! And 2: Reward yourself with something small that goes with your bigger reward. Jewelry, a Girl's Night, or new make-up.

Good diets aren't about denying yourself, they're about moderation. I've found that actually using just the serving size of sweets and salty treats is enough to curb the craving, but it's WAY less then I would have eaten if I just snacked.(Bite sized Halloween treats work great!)

Yay for me! I just got back from checking the PO Box...and guess what I got!

My husband thought they were hilarious. Which is good, cause I didn't tell him I'd bought them. *wink wink*

They're so cute, really. And thanks so much for putting them up for sale for me. I can't wait to show them off on the boards!
