Can't control myself from eating

bean247

Hi there, I've come to realize I can't control myself when there's food nearby... I'll scold myself and say there's too much calories then I eat it. I feel bad yet good cause I like food. Makes me happy. I need help because I don't know what to do to prevent that from happening

Try hypnosis, it's really helped me. There's video for free on youtube. My favorite is the weight loss sleep hypnosis by Thomas Hall. You put it on as you're going to sleep and it helps you fall asleep and you absorb it into your subconscious. Also doing his 20 minute hypnosis during the day and listening to weight loss binaural beats

You may want to contact a therapist or counselor to help you get to the root of your issues. It seems like you have a poor relationship with food and while food makes me happy too, I don't rely on it solely for my happiness and can control my eating. A good therapist can really make a big difference!

I've incorporated small changes over a long period of time and I am now down 51 pounds. I too have trouble with moderation. First change was having oatmeal for breakfast every day, nothing more and nothing less. I put milk and sweetener on it. After a month of controlling breakfast I added in a new habit of not eating after 7 pm. No matter what's going on, when 7 hits the kitchen is closed. Anyway baby steps seemed to work for me. I have 50 more pounds to lose so more small changes are on the horizon.
I wish you all the best with your journey
