Lean on me

Sometimes, you need a little help from your friends. And no doubt, they'd be more than happy to lend a hand in your effort to avoid those snacking demons. Here's how: Pick a friend or coworker who's usually available -- on the phone or in person -- at the times when you're most vulnerable. Ask her if she'll be your designated conscience. Then the next time a bad craving hits, she can distract you, talk you out if it or just remind you of your weight loss goals. If she's also trying to stick to a diet, the two of you can work together to make smarter food choices. This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
