I'm eating way too much, so please make me stop!

[Anonymous]

I'm eating way too much. It has been like months that I'm trying to lose weight. I lose some, then eat and gain weight once more.

Ugh, I'm sick of it. Make me stop!

I don't feel like exercising either :/

You need to at least walk a lot for what I'm going to tell you to work.

Continue eating, just change how often you eat and your portions. Eat at least 5 times a day small breakfast, snack, small lunch, snack, small dinner, snack. And snack between that if you can. (Snacks as in fruits, vegetables, cereal bars, yogurt, ect). Then walk at least a mile a day (it's a lot easier than it sounds. For example take the stairs instead of the elevator, walk to the restaurant down the road ect) you'll lose FAT and gain MUSCLE this way.

In doing this you're going to boost your metabolism A BUNCH. You'll burn what you eat a lot faster and all you have to do is keep at it.

This is how I live and I am 21, 5' 7" and 120lbs. (I'm mostly muscle so my weight isn't most people's 'ideal' for my height).

Well yeah, I eat junk and chocolate. I need to change this, but it's my comfort zone. I'm pretty much stressed all the time because of my Master's work, job and other things. It's wrong, I know.

I think you look fabulous :) but I doubt it's because you only walk ;)

[Wtfgirl]

Well I walk a-lot. But I also do a lot of farm work now. Before hand all I did was walk with out the farm work. When I was younger same hieght and 110lbs, I would just walk to work (3 miles each way.)

Instead of chocolate you need to find a few fruits that you love and slowly replace that high caffeine surgery substance with something a bit sweeter. Right now sugar babies are in, also known as a personal watermelon. They are to kill for. It's like heaven in a rind. (At least to me).

Thanks a lot :)

You need to determine why you are eating so much? Depressed, bored, stressed? If you can target what the problem is you should be able to control your bad habits.

I recently lost 30 lbs and working on losing more. I'm not going to lie it was hard at first but once I got into the way I should be eating it got easier. I still have my days, when I'm stressed I tend to eat more. But when I take note of that I stop. And if you do get out of hand don't beat yourself up, just start a new day.

Eat slower and take note of every bite. Wait before going back for seconds. Guaranteed you'll start to feel full.

Don't deprive yourself of your favorites, just learn to cut down on them.

And at least get out there and walk. Exercise is great to get out that stress.

[Asker]

Stressed, overwhelmed, have tons of work to do, etc...so, yeah, food is my comfort zone. Wrong, but yeah :/

You have to research many healthy diets, not just one.

It's a matter of trying out things you like. If you force anything, it won't last. Choose a few foods you love and substitute them with the healthy alternative. If you love fried chicken, go for lean chicken breasts, lightly salted and pan seared.

Another good way to stop your gorging is to precook all of your meals. Make them portioned to the size of your fist, and eat no more than 4 per day.

A part of me is kind of happy, Arab chicks with booty are awesome.

[Asker]

Hahahaha! big big booty :D

The thing is I love chocolate. It's my only weakness regarding food. But you're absolutely right. Thanks! :)

[Dom163]

Problem with diets is people don't maintain them so after they lose the weight they go back to the eating habits that made them gain weight in the first place you have to be willing to lose the weight and keep the weight off

[Asker]

I'm willing, but I'm just too overwhelmed because I have tons of things to do. Food is my comfort zone. I know it's bad. So, make me stop :(

[Dom163]

You say it's your comfort zone so describe to me when you would eat for comfort

[Asker]

When I'm anxious, sad, overwhelmed, frustrated, etc...I eat too much. I eat lots of chocolate too. Sometimes, I can't stop. It's too bad :/

[Dom163]

So what you need to do is replace your "happy place" if you will because right now it's food and you need to change it to something else like a hobby tell me some of your hobbies and we can find one that's easy to do and helps you with all that stress

[Asker]

Hmmm...I like to read, but I read a lot already for my Master's. So, sometimes it's stressful to read more. I like music, but that doesn't help. I used to swim, but stopped :/ I dunno...I sound like a loser :/

[Dom163]

Alright so do you have easy access to books not related to your masters? And another thing you can do when you feel yourself getting overwhelmed or whatever instead of going and getting food you can go for a walk and if you want to listen to music while you walk (assuming you have a iPod) it sounds boring but I find walking running or whatever to be really relaxing it's just time to yourself where you can clear your head and just focus on walking and it's convenient lol

[Asker]

The streets here aren't made to walk on haha..So, I must drive to a club minutes away to be able to walk there. That's why I get lazy. But you're right. I know what's right. I just don't act upon it.

[Dom163]

Alright well then here's what I do always draw you don't even have to be good honestly I sometimes just scribble for like a half hour or something while listening to music so I can just focus my mind on something else so try that even if you aren't good at drawing just draw like shapes or whatever it's a good way to relax imo Alright well then here's what I do always draw you don't even have to be good honestly I sometimes just scribble for like a half hour or something while listening to music

[Dom163]

Crap that double pasted lol sorry

[Asker]

Thanks a lot :)

You want to loose weight but you don't want to work for it with exercising? That's like saying you want an A on a paper that you aren't going to do. Even if you don't want to go to the gym, walk around your neighborhood. You can keep taking in calories but if you don't burn them out with exercise then you won't see results unless you starve yourself.

Anyways, as for you continuing to eat: try to keep busy. If you're at home bored then chances are you are going to keep eating. I also suggest eating healthy foods. Control yourself and only limit yourself to 5 small meals a day. Its all about self control.

[Nicefuture]

Well,think about the results!the results of being overweight.

You are going to be a Fat azz in the future,you will need 2 Or 3 chairs to sit on lol lol,good luck with that.you will not get out/In of the door that easY and die single,Your enemies will be happy about that and the ex bf,too.He will make fun of you,i will too lol if I met you...etc

Eat lots of low calorie food instead, or you could drastically cut down on your food intake for a few days then wait for you stomach to adjust. Once it's adjusted you'll basically feel fuller faster.

[taster]

[paigems]

Every time you feel like eating but you're not actually hungry, do a little exercise. Look up some 2 min workouts on youtube and keep then handy.

[Anonymous]
