I gained back the wight. Help?

[Anonymous]

So I lost 10 pounds through May to September but I've just got 10 pounds back in 3 months!

I didn't really care about eating and had some self control through at that time

But now I totally cannot control myself and eat whatever I want. My friends and family have been telling me that I've got some wight these days. I want to loose my weight so bad.

After I eat a lot, I feel guilty every time but I still cannot keep myself from eating some snacks or sweets.

So how can I stop eating bad food and loose my weight? Thanks

You must be determined to only eat when you're hungry.. And not just to eat.

Limit to junk food once a week and only 1meal of it. For example, Sundays you eat healthy all day, but one of those meals can be anything you want. But only 1portion. Then the rest of the week strict healthy eating.

Write down a plan. (Healthy foods to eat)
Cook your meals a night before and set them in containers.. That way, the next day when you're hungry, you don't go looking for anything, you go straight for your first meal that you have already prepared... And so on.

If you don't like exercising, at least walk at a fast pace for 20-30 mins minimum.
If you do like to exercise, try to do 2 hours a day.. 1cardio 1weight training.

Get a full gallon of milk... When it's empty, wash it, fill it up with water every day.
You must finish the entire gallon throughout the day. (Do not try to drink a lot of it in one go.. That's bad) just remember from the morning you start... And as the day ends, so should your water in the gallon.

Stay away from foods and drinks that contain high fructose corn syrup
Stay away from white fluffy stuff
And stay away from sodium/salt. (If you season your food, do it lightly)

If you don't set your mind, that THIS is what you really want, then you can't even begin to make any changes.

And get enough sleep :]!

And I don't mean for you to drink the milk... But you need an empty gallon. That's the amount of water you should be hydrating yourself with everyday. :b

Ok what you need to do it, eat. Don't feel guilty about eating, that's terrible, If you're craving food, it's because your body needs it.
Eat as much as you want, but absolutley no processed food. If you want do some kind of detox, and have just fruits and vegetables for a week (but enough calories). But in general you can eat fruits, vegetables, legumes, grains and eggs and meat within reason. No oils since they are highly processed, not diet cola or protein powder. Nuts and seeds are good tho. And have plenty of greens. Make an effort to eat at least 1lb of greens a day.

And if you can't stay away from junk food, a good rule is, you can eat it, if you can make it. i. e. you can't have tater tots but you can make this

you can't buy cookies or cake but you can make them yourself. And then use brown sugar, wholemeal flour or oatflour and stuff like that. If you crave something sweet, have fruit. even 3 or 4 banans, until you feel satisfied

Often times when people go on diets a few things happen that make it easy to regain weight. Motobalism drops, nutrient intake drops, and healthy fat intake drops. These cause people to want to eat more junk foods.

Counteract metabolism drop by eating several small healthy meals throughout the day, and keeping active. Gaining more muscle helps with this too since it is the most metabolically active tissue in the body.

For nutrients and healthy fats get what you can from food, fruits, vegetables, salmon, nuts etc etc. Also take daily multu vitamins and omega 3s. I hope this helps you to achieve your fitness goals!

Hey! I have the same problem. It's a really terrible feeling and it won't go away very fast. What you need to try and do is listen to that inner voice of yours which says: stop eating! you know it's not good for you.
Usually it's hard to do that because you have another voice saying: what's the matter? I can eat this.. It's just for today and then I'll start tomorrow. IGNORE that voice at all costs… drink hot water with lemon in the morning and eat when you are hungry, not when you are in the mood. Also, try to drink water because sometimes the feeling of hunger is actually just thirst...
