Need to lose 150 pounds

As they say, you have already taken the first step, realizing there is a problem. It is hard to stop eating junk food and fast food. I think it is programmed into us as a kid. Parents give us icecream and our favorite dinner as an award etc. Then when we feel bad we eat to get that good time feeling or when we do good we reward ourself with food. Best thing is to keep eating the foods you like, just start cutting back on the amount you eat. Slowly, work in healthier versions of the food you like. At the same time really try to get your fruit and vegetable intake in. We don't learn our bad eating habbits overnight, just a matter of reprogramming our brains to do the right thing.

Well you are not the only one that faced this problem. Some of us have a uncontrollable appetite. So it is best rather than avoiding and degrading yourself look for solutions. You can find products that are based on white kidney beans or chitosan to help you to block starch, fats and carbohydrates. You can eat a hamburger as meal , but before you just take the tablets and drinks lots of water. So far there are no recoredeed side effects. I am also using one to block starch. Furthurmore, rather than stressing yourself at a gym you can just go for a long walk. Or you can try to find a hypoclinic and ask the hypnosis doctor to hypnotize you to stop consuming junk food.

I am an emotional eater too. I eat to fix every thing and I have the extra pounds to show it. I am trying to learn new skills to cope with my emotions, like exercising for stress, or taking care of my self in hopes that I wount get to down. It has been a constant struggle for me since as long as I can remember.

Hey there falcon. Well, I understand your situation. I really had a hard time getting off junk foods. Well, I may be wrong, but you seem to be addicted to hamburgers. Do you like to eat one even at the slightest sign that you're hungry? How many times do you eat it? I have felt the same when when I was addicted to big mac. I just can't wait to get one and sometimes I eat 2 in a day. I used up most of my money just because of it. Emotionally, you feel very fulfilled. It's like you won something and/or you can already relax. But then your body acts differently. It feels extremely full and you just want to vomit sometimes. It is a sign of addition. No offense my friend. However, it's not late and you can definitely get off from it. I really want to help as I've been through the same ordeal. For starters, have yourself checked by a doctor and have tests for your blood. Get the good and bad cholesterols and the blood sugar. Once you see the results, it could possibly be over the normal limits, you'll see what effects it has on you. Next, you have to accept that it is your present condition. You then should start thinking differently. What will the effect be if you continue? and who will get affected, would be just you or those who love you and are around you? By then, after the acceptance and the start of your motivation, you're 100% ready. Exercise and plan your diet well. Seek a nutritionist or another doctor as they know what to advise depending on your condition. I know you can do it. Believe in yourself. Take care my friend.
