Coffee can trigger cravings by messing up your insulin level. It might also cause water retention... as if TOM wasn't enough for that.

Lunch:

Grilled Chicken + green veggie soup
Is this cooked with some fat? Fat will keep you full between meals, thus reducing the chances you cheat or overeat.

These may actually make matters worse by triggering a cephalic response. The exact amount of sweetener in diet sodas is not something you know or can control. They are also sweetened with aspartame, which may cause a stall in your weight loss.

If you are dieing for something sweet, why not make something yourself? First, you'll know how much sweetener there's in it, and second, you'll eat less or less often because it asks for more work than just opening a bottle.

Good luck making it through. Many of us are rewarded with some weight loss when TOM passes, so hang in there.

"The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
