    Hey! I can totally understand feeling like you need to get your eating under control! Stress is the main reason I gained my weight last year. That and not really realizing I was eating so much.... haha oops. Add me if you feel like it!

    Congratulations on recognizing your issues and wanting to do something. It's the beginning of a healthy journey! I am not a psychologist but I am a nursing student and like you we are learning about mental health and how sometimes it's nice to be an ear to our patients. Feel free to add me for motivation and support! :)

    For me, it's a constant struggle. Stress, comfort....there always seems to be a trigger. Please feel free to add me as a friend. Supportive friends are always a welcome addition to my MFP family :)

    Hi. I hope this helps, but I struggled with food for a long time. I was used to eating just because due to how my family chooses to celebrate anything. I would love to be your friend and encourage you and have you a source of encouragement for me! Coincidentially, I am studying to become a psychologists. I had to become motivated by my little ones wanting to excercise, but I became self motivated today! I felt empowered to continue to workout. I don't know what fitness plan you have but if you have problems doing the excercises, I recommend the program I am doing called Faithful Workouts: It's motivating and gives variations to every excercise that they do from low, moderate, to high impact versions. It allows you to complete the entire workout doing it all as she has specified or with the variations and you feel great afterwards because its not about doing what others do, she constantly encourages you to reach your personal best! I hope this helps and keep going. She even explained about foods today. Once I go back through it I will give you the information she has provided. But there is a website: Faithfulworkouts.com
    :happy: -Michelle

    Ugh, I know how you feel. I just started a new job after staying home for a year. It's so hard to balance it all AND eat clean/healthy. Feel free to add me!

    Yes, this is tough. You need to make time to log your food and exercise. Before you eat, ask yourself if you're truly hungry or just eating for the sake of it.

    the hormones will get you every time... being female comes with it's own special set of weight control problems. Anyhow, I am sending you a friend request. I love having friends to help motivate!

    I had a major issue with chocolate for a while and I gave up all chocolate and sweets over all (I would eat a little jelly and stuff like that on occation but not cookies, cake, icecream candy, etc.) for a full week. After that I feel like I can choose to eat something because I really want it and not HAVE to eat it because it's in the house. Good luck to you!
