  • I loved zoodles and chef boyardi ravioli as a kid. Would still pig out on them if they didn't give me heartburn. I'm a real bad sugar junkie so would like friends who understand and aren't judgmental. In the last 3 days I've pigged out on chocolate covered jujubes, hot fudge sauce and ferrero rocher. So good.

  • Be sure to get your thyroid gland tested. If it is underactive you will never lose weight. Also some medications cause weight gain or difficulties in losing, so check that our too.

  • Best to eat them, really focus on them as you do, eat them mindfully, totally enjoy them and tell yourself that its ok to reward yourself. Otherwise you'll just keep craving them and maybe overeat other worse things. Be kind to yourself.

  • Being tired, lonely, angry, sad, frustrated, overwhelmed, generally anxious, feeling sorry for myself, agitated, depressed.....you name it. I eat less when I'm happy, busy or with a great bunch of people. Food doesn't seem so important then. I'm 49, 5"6, 177 lbs. In 2008 I got down to 144 and felt good about myself for the…
    in What makes you to OVEREAT? Comment by Desdemonad July 2017
  • yes, a new med might just have to be tried, something that doesn't cause weight gain, maybe Topamax, which I hear can actually make some people lose weigh, or Lamotragine, which is weigh neutral. Seroquel is a bugger.:frown:

  • Hi, i have been on Paxil since 1996 and take clonazepam and Seroquel too. Recently my shrink tried to add in Abilify to boost my antidepressant and it resulted in terrible weight gain (25lbs).
