I hate photos of myself.  I am addicted to food and it scares me.  I want to choose feeling good over food.  I'm afraid I'll end up like this!

I have been in the situation of food being #1 priority and anyone who hasn't truly doesn't understand the addiction. Talk to your doctor, there is a "cheap" prescription called phentermine, it will boost your energy, all you will want to do is drink water and will have to force yourself to eat, but keep portions small. And, to boost self confidence start doing some sort of physical activity, join a gym, if you can't afford that just walk starting small and working your way up. Oh, and leave the fast food alone, eat turkey and tuna instead of red meat. You have to want to make the change for you, remember YOU are in control of you, and not only to look good and feel good but to live longer as well. And remember, easy to put it on, hard to get it off, fad diets do not work-healthy eating and excercise does. I tried everything, this is the only thing that worked.

Whenever you have the craving to eat food...have a picture of maggot covered food you can look at. (or WHATEVER grosses you out) I've used this for years. All of the sudden..the brain signal gets TURNED OFF...and you arent hungry anymore. IT WORKS!!!

Nobody is asking for judgement here. They are asking for help usually. If you can't give it, shut your flap!!!

People who have never dealt with the issue of overeating or being over weight clearly do not understand, and you can tell that by some of the postings here. Everyone is not raised the same way, everyone is not fortunate enough to have parents that fed them healthy food as a child. This carries on to being an adult and making terrible choices. Also, there must be an underlying problem, no one just does this without there being some issue there. I feel your pain but you must know it is up to you to change what you are doing to yourself. I hope you can get it under control.

Good luck. I am very overweight and scared of what will happen. I am only 32 and everything is a chore for me. Doing dishes half way through I need a chair as my back will be killing me. Carrying my son up 4 steps winds me. Good luck to you. I know how you feel. Do whatever you need to do to fix it you don't want to end up like me.
