    I picture the piece of pizza on my butt or the bag of chips as a big bag on the front of my stomach. Gross thoughts but it works for me. I feel like when I eat junk food it literally shows on my body right away. Who wants to look at that? NOT ME!

    Why did you bring up pizza? The OP is talking about junk food!
    I just ate half a Domino's chicken and mushroom pan pizza..after logging it I realized it IS junk food! Ooopps. :wink:


    We were talking about pizza, not that crap Domino's sells! :laugh:

    Tasted like delicious pizza to me! :love:

    I too have this problem. See I am on a medically managed diet and I am tired of slipping.I REALLY need some kind of help. I'm supposed to be meeting with my behaviorist but I'm kinda nervious of meeting her since I did such bad stuff this week. This kind of diet you cannot mess up on. I'm trying to get weight loss surgery right but they are testing me if I have enough will power. It's weird because I used to have so much will power it wasn't even funny now it's hard. I think I know why I am binge eating so to speak. When someone says I cannot have something that makes me want it even more. It's weird I've been getting weird cravings. The only thing this diet has made me feel is super hungry all the time and pee all the time. It gets so annoying, I go to school so I cannot get up and go to the bathroom every 5 mins it's embarressing. I guess I do know why I eat too much or just plain eat too little but at the same time I do not understand some things as of why I'm doing this all of a sudden. I've cheated on my diet about 6-8 times and I'm REALLY REALLY tired of it. I guess I'm like an alcoholic or gambler I cannot help myself it's hard to get rid of an addiction. For a bit I used to have a eating disorder of throwing up and not eating much at all but this diet is not making me think straight because I'm too hungry to think I guess...

    Yes you can. Plenty of good advice already given. Stop buying it, don't have it in the house, log it before you eat it, etc. etc.

    Nothing tastes as good as feeling thin.

    Yes, I used to have an eating disorder too but then I got better but started eating too much junk food.

    Sounds to me like you need to eat more often and include protein and fat along with your veggies. Veggies may make you feel full and give you lots of vitamins and minerals but they don't actually five you that satisfied feeling. Invest in a tasty protein powder (vega-one chocolate flavored is awesome!) I am drinking one now with 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1/4 cup water and 1/2 scoop protein powder with 1/4 cup frozen berries. It is so satisfying for me. If you prefer only whole foods, eat a few ounces of protein like raw almonds or even fish or chicken. Good luck!

    As for saying that skinny taste so much better than junk food. I'm going to be honest when I was skinny I didn't taste anything but I felt A LOT better about myself. Maybe that should be my motivation. :)

    Try reading The Diet Cure by Julia Ross. It explains a lot and gives you a way to be proactive in regards to your specific challenges. If it's depression, eating disorder, just feeling crazt etc.

    Eating tasty foods and being thin are not mutually exclusive. You can actually do both as long as you learn moderation. You can eat junk food, just not mountains of it. As long as something like 80-90% of your calories come from "good" foods, you can allocate the rest to "junk" foods.

    I didn't eat any junk food today, and hopefully won't eat that much anymore. Thank you for the tips :)
