Quit procrastinating!!

I am feeling very sorry for myself this week (yeah what's new!)

I am so sick of being overweight, I love exercise but I just cannot stop eating! I have a huge appetite and a sweet tooth and I am finding it really difficult to cut down. I have done it before so I know I can but it's just a million times harder this time round.
I am really stressed about different things that I can't really change but that doesn't stop me stressing about them. When I feel down and stressed I feel tired and I eat. I feel hungry nearly all day and I love food.

So I have been thinking for the past week or so about if I can change what I am doing exercise wise and try to plan a decent diet too. I am now sat surrounded by fitness books and mags. I am going to turn off the TV and try to come up with some kind of plan!
Eek here goes!!

I can relate! I did the same and now am a month in and 13 lbs down. You can do it too! Good luck!

dont let your body get use to the same exercise, change it around, try interval training if u can, it works a treat for me, well with a good diet too

I think the key is to find a buddy or partner. Someone you can be accountable to. I think having that person motivates us to do our best so we don't let them down. having a partner helps give you strength in places you are weak. Just make sure your accountability buddy is not an enabler of the habits you want to break

I had a really bad sweet tooth too!

the trick for me was, when I was craving chocolate have a really low cal hot chocolate (options mint madness for me!)

and for any other sweet tooth I replaced my cravings with really sweet fruits . . . so even if you are eating a lot and you do go over your cals at least it's with good food and not bad stuff!

also I find dates work a treat for me! so sweet!!

hope this helps
