I love food, I can't stop even after I am full, I know is wrong but I just don't know how to stop. I also have IBS so every time I ate I get sick of my stomach and I love eating foods that make me sick too ( dairy, gluten, fried food ) Can any one help me please.
Hi! Glad you found supportgroups.com. Welcome!
You can do this. I changed my lifestyle and feel so much better! As I lost weight, I donated my "fat" clothes so I wouldn't be able to gain a few pounds.
I only weigh myself once a week on the same day.
Journaling really helps a lot of us! If I have to write it down, I'll think twice about putting it in my mouth. : )
I figure, if I'm really hungry (and not bored or angry), I'll eat a small orange or a nandful of baby carrots, etc.
I've found
Don't get too tired, too hungry or lonely.
I try to plan ahead.
I try to plan ahead and don't keep my trigger food in at home any more!
Sometimes, I call or email a friend or go for a walk.
If I can do it, you can, too!
Just tell yourself you're worth it, ok? : ) You are!
All the best!
Hi zudeta!
Thank you for taking the risk to share. This is a safe place for support and guidance.
Being able to enjoy food is a good thing, but if it's out of control and related to emotional distress, it's likely going to lead to more problems. Have you seen a doctor to rule out any physical problems? Please also consider seeing a therapist to talk about what is leading you to use food in this way, and to also continue to eat the foods that make you ill.
Please see your doctor...and take care....Jan ♥
