AIBU to ask how the hell you stop yourself overeating at the moment?

[Turmericpie]

I would say usually I'm controlled and disciplined. I'll have eaten 'clean' 85% of the time. I exercise regularly.

But OMG, I've lost it. I'm snacking, overeating, eating rubbish - everything. It's mostly because I've lost my usual routine, DC at home, 3 meals a day, endless cooking.

I hate myself. I need to get a grip.

ADVICE please

Kind of in the same boat. I have lost about 10kg over the last few months with a calorie deficit and exercise.
Over the last few weeks I find myself snacking more. What I do is I buy low calorie snack (eg you can get a six pack of mini biscuits that are around 150 calories). I feel like I am getting a treat. I find the fact the snack is portion out it is easier to control.

Keeping busy! I find it goes hand in hand with being more sedentary and phone usage.
Also mini ‘fasts’ between each meal. Set a fasting app after you’ve eaten each meal and wait a few hrs before your next one.

I'm in the midst of working through a significant weight loss. Snacking and binging on high calorie junk food is/was/always will be a trigger for me.

Yes I've lost 30 kilos through diet and increased exercise, but to control the urge to snack or binge I,

1. Distract - do something with your hands, washing up/vacuum/shower/bath etc
2. Remove - leave, go for a walk/drive/bike ride

If you have a slip, do not speak negatively to yourself. Instead journal how you felt, this gives you sometime to read the next time an urge hits.

My top tips:
Definitely drink more water - try and have a glass of water first whenever you are tempted to snack.
Prepare some healthier snacks - chopped fruit/veg etc so unhealthy snacks are not thenonlybeasy go to option.
Try only eating snacks sat at a table .
It does take 3 - 4 weeks to establish a new habit (or get rid of an old one) so persevere - keeping a food log/diary may help.
