getting through and empty calories

Well, i weighed yesterday, i was feeling really good and feeling as though I had done a lot, however; the scales had a different story. I did nothing, not a thing, no gain, no loss. I am thankful there was no gain, but it does get me a little down. But when I think back on this past month I realized, I had a bunch of empty calories. It's not just counting calories, but its the kind of calories. I have a big weakness for kettle chips 18 for 150 calories. But if this is something you eat a lot of it's just empty calories. I have in the past tried to find things that had few calories but I get a lot of it. I failed on this this past month, therefore I was hungry a lot and also ate calories that really did me no good. So, keep and eye out for that. I did get a little down, but I have no choice but to continue, because the alternative is going back to the way I was and that is not an option. I never want to feel that way again.
