Hello all,

I've been struggling with my weight and binge eating for just over a year now. I can go to the gym and have a kick *kitten* workout, but I always ruin my hard work by overeating. Additionally, I always start the day eating healthy, and binge after lunchtime until late at night. I really don't know what to do anymore. I don't have support among family or friends, as I've tried sharing this issue and no one is willing to help. I'm also not able to talk to a professional or attend support meetings, etc. so I'm trying to look for some support on here. Has anyone else struggled with this problem? I really want to lose weight, but more importantly I want to gain control over my eating. I know I can put in the time at the gym, but I really don't know how to control what I eat at home. Please help!

    Oh, yes, I've been there too. There was something in my head, maybe in my deepest subconscious that wanted to stay fat and unhappy. I had read about that idea before, and I thought "How ridiculous, why on earth would I want to stay fat?" Why indeed. So recently I've done some soul searching and some deep thinking...a lot of journaling and I've determined, I think, where the road block is. To tell you what road block is wouldn't help you however, because you have to find your own. The most important thing to remember is that this is your journey. Love yourself, start telling yourself a different story, wright some positive affirmations and repeat them daily. You might not believe them at first, but eventually they will be your new story and your life will begin to reflect that. You can do this. All you have to do is believe in yourself.
