Eating is the most comforting thing. Whenever I am alone or feeling lonely I end up eating. I wish I had some self control and ate only when my body required. I hope that I get out of this soon because being overweight can lead to ill health and depression. While I know but I am looking out ways to control my appetite.

Believe me, as hard as it may seem to control your weight now, it's 10 times easier than losing weight. I became disabled and gained 100 lbs. because of the lack of exercise and I ate all the time. I really regretted it when I became a type ll diebetic. My doctor was also concerned about the extra stress on my heart. I was so scared I was going to go blind or lose a limb from it. I started an 800 calorie diet. I lost 4 to 5 lbs. a week. After I lost 50 lbs., I started to exercise every day. I lost a total of 112 lbs. in 27 weeks. It was a nightmare being on this diet. If only I knew just how bad being over weight is for you. Talk to anybody who has been on a diet and lost weight, it's easier to start good eating habits now, than after you have gained the weight. There is more at stake than you probably realize. Good luck!
