It's good to try to resist it but don't give it up completely.  The human mind craves stuff that they given up completely.\n\nIf you want to eat chocolate, eat only a very small amount once in a while.  Eat more pure chocolate, the type without the caramel, nuts, and other stuff.\n\nWhen you eat fast food, drink lots of water (bottled if you want), eat very small amounts, like a kid's meal (that's supposed to be the correct amount anyway.\n\nYou can eat fruits and vegetables to keep you filled up.\n\nThat's what I suggest.

Just dont eat it. Its only up to you. I know sometimes its hard to stop but you just have to find the will power. And tell yourself that you can do it!

Look! You have to be strong for your self forget the friends! Do you want this? First of all this is not a quick process loosing takes time and focus with dedication. Instead of eating junk think of things that will take away your appetite like pickles. eat watermelon it fills you up and it is a water source. eat on a saucer rather than a bowel or normal size plate. Watch your calories and carbs when you think your hungry drink water or fruit. If you need sweets buy low fat sweets and try to wing your self away from them. do crunches at night 2 hours before bed and when you wake up in the morning, the more you tighten your stomache muscles the less you will want to it. Our stomache's are not big we stretch them by over eating. Focus and keep in mind that you can do it You are on control Not the weight! good luck!

Try keeping fresh fruit, and good snacking foods, readily available. If you keep a bowl of grapes, or fruit cups, or I really like the mini cold carrots. Keep these so if you get a craving, you can grab these real quick. If you have to cut them or wash them when you are ready to eat them, you will grab something that is ready or quicker to get. If you grab potato chips, all you have to do is open them and start eating them. (that's too easy).  So try having a good snack, ready to grab and go.     ps............I like keeping a little baggie of carrots, or grapes, things like that, and when i've got a craving, its grab and go real quick..

What foods are you craving specifically?  If you need chocolate, you are better off eating high cocoa versions like 70% cooking chocolate.  If it is burgers, try eating chicken burgers instead of ordinary ones.\n\nI over ate last week because it was just so damned cold.  I also over eat if I am stressed out.  Think about how you are feeling at the moment and if you are stressing about something, do something to sort it out.  Exercise is really good for stress but if you are feeling stressed the last thing you want to do is exercise.  Catch 22!\n\nGood luck!

This is a big problem with me, when you're trying to cut out the sweets or any food in general. Just make sure you have a bag of those baby carrots in your fridge at all times, and munch on those when a craving hits. They're also convenient to carry with you too. Just stick some in a baggy when you go out and stay away from restaurants like McDonald's or KFC if possible. You'll be drooling just smelling the food from outside.LOL! Good Luck!

The only thing is to be able to bear it.  I have had to sacrifice chocolate to lose weight as well.  At the beginning, I was looking for anything to substitute it.  Then I realized that nothing was going to do it and I had to decide which I wanted more:  to lose weight or to have chocolate.  I decided for losing weight.  That was 35 pounds ago.  Now, I have chocolate but only once in a while and if I do get a craving, I can control it.

I feel for you.  It's going to be hard.  You have to make up your mind that you are going to do this.  Cut the bad stuff out of your diet.  No more cokes, mo more sweets, no more bread/potatoes.  You might look into the South Beach diet.  The key is going to be diet and exercise.  I know you don't want to exercise, but that's the ONLY way - unless you have some sort of gastric surgery.  Walk around your neighborhood.  Look into one of those gyms for women - Curves, or something similar.  It's not too bad.  And since you are doing it together, you can motivate each other.  You can do it if you want to badly enough.

cut your food consumption by 1/4 and exercise more. I suggest you start by walking 2 miles every day, stop eating ANY junk food, and drinking 4 glasses of skim milk  every day

There is nothing wrong with you. If it was so easy to make life style changes everyone would be hitting the gym, dieting and looking great. \nGoing to the gym is easier if you have a buddy going with you. This way you feel obligated to go.\nAs far as the Cheese, butter and chocolate you don't have to completely deny yourself. Allow yourself to indulge. However you will need to limit the intake. For example You have gone to the gym all week. allow yourself one piece of chocolate once a week as a treat. Do the same for cheese, do the  and butter. There are 7 days a week, you have three deadly's if you allow yourself to have one item every other day. Limit the amount to very minium. Your still having the items. So your body doesn't feel like it's being deprived. Making it easier to stick to the rest of the program.

stay away from fast food, sodas, cakes, cookies, etc.  eat lots of fruits and vegetables, soups and salads (with lite dressing or better yet, no dressing at all).  drink plenty of water and exercise.  good luck!

Instead of going to the candy aisle for a good snack, try to find some healthy foods that interest you. Try baby carrots in low fat ranch dip, or celery with peanut butter. If you feel a little weak, and need a pick-me-up, grab a couple of ritz crackers (starch), peanut butter (protien), and eat.\n\nYou can also, when eating, limit the size of your snack, which is guarenteed to reduce your waistline. Say, if the size of your "snack" is larger than your fist, there's a good chance that it could be a meal instead of "just a snack".\n\nSigning off,\n     Trish

Some chemists stock quit chocolate patches believe it or not.\nJust like the ones for quitting smoking.\nOther than that try eating sweet fruit instead of chocalate!\nI know the feeling though - nothing quite beats a good chocolate binge!! :-)

Try eating fruits.  If that doesn't work, then often the case may be that your body is really craving protein.  Eat a little more low fat protein with your meals, and this may help curb the cravings.  Another thing is to not totally cut out sweets.  Just eat them in moderation.  This will stop the binging from happening.

First off, don't tempt yourself by having yummy snack foods around.\n\nTry to do something to keep your hands busy and yourself out of the kitchen - take up knitting, read, get online, play a game or cards with someone, take a walk - whatever it takes to keep you away from the food until you can control yourself.\n\nIt's tough, I know!  Just remember how bad you feel after your binging and you'll think twice before you start. Good luck!!
