Again, Looking for Some Supportive Friends!

Options
Hi guys!

My name is Ayla, and I have a problem with eating when I'm not hungry and eating bad food consistently. I need some supportive friends to help me break my bad habits and make new ones. I'm looking to lose around 40 pounds and get more active. I want to stop thinking about food and just live my life. I don't want to live to eat, but eat to live. I hope to hear from some awesome people. Thanks!

Ayla Lee

    I'm right there with you! Your post really grabbed my attention because I have a similar problem. Even if I feel satisfied I still think about food. I've even had dreams about it. I need to lose about 20-25 pounds and I'm struggling with it. Consistency is a big issue for me. It's all about sticking with it and keeping in mind that results don't happen overnight. Also, I've learned that I have to stop watching the food network and looking for recipes on pinterest. That's just asking for a bad day. Feel free to add me!

    I'm new and would love more supportive friends on here. Love seeing that your name is Ayla! I too tend to eat even if I'm not hungry just bored. It's crazy. I try to stay as far away from my kitchen when I get that feeling but it's hard not to give in. I added you as a friend.

    Thank you for posting! I too am looking for support on the journey to better health! When I was in High School I was active and could eat anything; Ten years later I despise going to the gym and struggle to eat healthy. Finally, I have had enough and I NEED/want to get in shape (lose the belly/tone up) and eat healthier. I am afraid without motivation from others I may get stuck in the same cycle and never end this curse.

    Pretty much the same with me. I need to lose 35 - 40 lbs. My biggest issue is in the evenings. I am not hungry, but just feel like I should go to the kitchen and get something to eat. I don't know why.. I have been sticking with MPF for about 5 weeks now, except for the eating in the evenings for no reason, I feel like it all helps. I need some inspiration to not eat when i am not hungry!!!
    Feel free to add me if you are in the same boat!
