Default weight loss tip

I want to share to everyone this favorite weight loss tip of mine:

Eat the low-calorie items off of your plate first, and then move on to the more calorie dense items. Start with salads, vegetables, then go to soups, and then the main part of the meal. The idea here is that you’ll likely be full or getting full by the time you reach the high calorie stuff, so you’ll eat less of it.

Hope that helps and jumpstarts your diet.

Default Eat when full

Here is my problem...

I'm eating past the point of being full. I feel fullness and I push it. Nothing seems to truely "fill me up." I'm eating for emotionaly satisfaction and it is really bothering me.

I work with women with eating disorders so I know the course of treatment, but I can't seem to apply it to myself.

I never used to be like this. I dropped weight and was 120. I loved it, but I had to exercise a lot and watch everything I ate. I'm now back to my pre-diet weight of 130 and I'm unhappy.

I went through a period of food deprevation and ever since then, my binge urges are awful. I used to push myslef to eat 1200 calories daily and no more. I'm a BIG eater so that was really hard. I remember when I gave up breakfast, I was so sad, but I had to give it up to lose more weight. I was scared of feeling ravenous at night, so I did not want to limit my intake then.

I turned it around and started to eat normally again, but with normal eating came a new animal...the binge. I started to get awful binge urges. I never used to have these. In fact, I hated "junk" food. Now I crave it.

I feel so trapped.

Thanks for reading this.
