Im busy studying 4 exams at the moment, which leaves me at home pretty much the entire day! my mom has all these nice sweet n chocolates in the cupboard which no1 ever eats. So l am like permanatly wanting 2 eat EVERYTHING. not bcos im hungry or l like the taste, just cos l want it in my stomach. strange l no. im not puting on weight cos l exercise everyday, but l need 2 lose weight and me eating so much all the time is just not helping. SO PLEASE, any tips or advice on how 2 resist the ''cookie jar''

OMG l AM EXACTLY THE SAME - l would love to know

The guy below me is addicted to porn - congrats

Watch porn instead :') Usually Help :)
The worst part is that im serious.*

If no one ever eats it and you are the only one it would be hard to resist. When you run out of chocolate goodies and your mother goes to buy more ask her not to and instead bar nutrition bars, they will give you energy while you are working out and also lower the sugar intake at the same time.

Distract yourself.

If you' moving towards the jar:

- Paint ur nails (do not want crumbs on ur nails,do you?)

- Go for a walk.

- Brush ur teeth (taste will be horrid)

These distractions r fine, as long as it is junk crap you're resisting. if u start applying them all day, every day. that is where the issue starts.

You mention u do not care about taste, that u just want the food in ur stomach & I'd like to touch upon that if u do not mind, as it is not just about keeping yourself from gorging, but thinking about *why* u want to l u would not enjoy it.

l have anorexia, & during my darker times l went though periods of eating for the sake of eating, primarily to bury & push down feelings l did not want to deal with. l advise u to write down how u feel when u want to go eat lots.think about the feeling inside, good or bad, take a deep breath, count to 100 & think, 'do l really need or want this?'

If u do, eat it.If you're not sure, think about what u really want to get.. & the cause of it. Stress, perhaps?

Thinking about *why* u want to eat for the sake of eating will give u a better insight into how to eat only what u want, when u want it. Not in an out of control manner.

Good luck!
