I want to loose weight :D

Hey everyone!! I just joined this site after coming here many times for advice on weight loss :) I want to loose weight so bad because it's killing my confidence. I don't feel like myself anymore. I'm even embarrassed to go outside =/

I would love to meet new people and get loads of advice. My biggest problem is binging on food when I have a stressful day. I can do this though! We all can!

    Take the first step and that is recognize the want !! Once you have the want, then go for it. Don't let anything stop you!!! Keep at it. Dedication and a strong will ... I have my bad days, but pick yourself up and keep on trudging. It's so worth it in the end. :)

    I feel the same way sometimes. It is hard to lose weight but it can (and will) happen. You are going to have your good days and your bad days. The difference is how you handle the bad days. They will unfortunatley happen. You just have to remember that tomorrow is another day. good luck!! we can do this:drinker:

    I have the same problem of eating a lot when I'm stressed. I'm sure you can lose the weight, just don't give up!!
  • I dunno why it's so hard for me to say no when I crave junk food. For example today, I'm a nursing school student, I had clinical and I was very tired at the end of the day. I then went for Chinese food.....How did you guys handle not giving into your cravings? I want to be able to say no and go for the healthier food that I actually have in my fridge instead of ordering something.

    You have to find the right place and the right items. I had breaded sweet and sour chicken rice box at the wok box. 621 calories i think it was and filled me up very much. I plan every morning of how I am going to eat. So my whole day is full of food, and I don't have to worry about going over.

    Plan for all day eating, make sure you eat everything on time even if you are not hungry, this way cravings don't sneak up just as you start needing food.

    Drink lots of water all day too.
