Lord, please help me stop eating

[abracadabra77]

I just can't help myself!

I really know I shouldn't, I'm a size 16 and definitely overweight.

The weight isn't even the biggest issue for me, I want to be fit and healthy, and hopefully looking good in the type of clothes I want like to wear will come with that 😄

For me it's chocolate

Wether it be biscuits, ice cream, cake, I just cannot stop myself sometimes.

Eat otherwise healthyish but could do better to be honest.

Can anyone tell me their success stories please?

Which diet plan/calorie counting/methods they used.

I will also be upping my exercise by walking a couple of extra hours a day and am going to invest in a spin bike.

Aaaaaaaaand the famous old saying, but hopefully I follow through with it this time

Diet starts TOMORROW

start with no treats in the house NONE no exception.
sticky notes to yourself.
my smart scale and my phone app is my best tool
and cardio, sweat inducing cardio has been really helpful at shifting the weight.
if your at all a believer, well i pray for strength. strength to exercise and strength to make better food choices.

I was planning to fast today. Lasted till 11.30am then gave up and attacked the marmite and sourdough. " ... feed a cold" I told myself.

But I'm refusing to buy clothes in anything other than my pre-lockdown size, so eventually there will be a reckoning ...

It's true, you cannot keep anything in your cupboards or fridge that you would regret eating. At my strictest I didn't keep flour or butter or sugar in the house - so no baking for entertainment. Lockdown storage for winter prevents the empty cupboard approach - but I baked so much in the spring I can leave it for now.

I’m the same. Agree with others. Nothing in the house, I would always walk to the shop to get stuff but probably not now weather has turned.
Log everything.

Wether it be biscuits, ice cream, cake, I just cannot stop myself sometimes.

Does this ring a bell, OP? If so, I would suggest you need to address your disordered eating before you think about your weight.
