Why am i eating so much?

Gir Asked by chipshoy1242 over 2 years ago, 5 answers.

I've been overeating for quite some time now. It's like I cant live without eating more than I lose in a day. It might be because I used to be anorexic. But PLEASE don't go on about me not needing to be anorexic, I already know, and I really regret it....

But I want to know if there's anything to help me stop overeating, or why I am.

Whole-grain crackers or whole-wheat tortilla with hummus or nut butter
A handful of unsalted or lightly salted dry-roasted nuts
Individual unsweetened applesauce with a few dry-roasted walnuts
Small apple with 2 teaspoons peanut butter or 1 ounce low-fat cheese
Ants on a log -- celery with nut butter, topped with raisins or other dried fruit
Half of a single-serving string cheese with a small piece of fruit or a few whole-grain crackers
4-ounces to 6-ounces of low-fat yogurt or yogurt treat
High-fiber dry cereal with a few nuts or seeds and dried fruit (put this in a baggie for a make-your-own snack pack)
Individual packs of carrots, celery sticks, or apple slices, with a protein source like a tablespoon of nuts, nut butter, or low-fat cheese
Pretzels and low-fat cheese
Whole-wheat cracker sandwiches made with natural nut butters
1 ounce of lean meat and a few whole-grain crackers
3 ounces low-fat or fat-free cottage cheese and a few whole-grain crackers
1 whole graham cracker and 1 teaspoon nut butter
Raw vegetables with 1/4 cup low-fat ranch dressing
100-calorie pack of low-fat popcorn rich in whole grains and fiber

First of all, I'd like to say good job for coming over your eating disorder. My mum had one for 13-16 but she finally got over it, though it was a battle

It may be that you've been depressed and over-eating is because it gives you something you can indulge in. But I'm not completely sure.

Try doing something else when you get the urge to eat, like go for a power walk, or go biking, some kind of exercise, read a book. Try to get your mind off the food. Or take a handful of nuts and seeds and a big glass of water, they will fill you till your next meal is due. Maybe you could talk to somebody you trust and find out the reasons you may be unhappy, or stressed, this is the main cause of overeating.

I eat so much, cause I'm always bored. Get a bike, or some kind of outside activity that involves excercising at the same time that you are having fun. This reduces your hunger in no time. It worked for me! Try it!
