Check if your problem is about "eating behaviour" or if it is just a symptom of another issue in your life. In most cases, the reason you are overeating is rooted in something else. Not fixing that would not really give you a proper solution - and you need to have a critical eye to analyse where it is coming from. Some potential examples are; * You are stressed - the way you deal with it is by eating. (You could explore ways of reducing stress and/or different coping strategies such as daily nature walks etc.) * For whatever reason, you don't sleep early. Research shows that when you don't sleep, you are more likely to eat and eat bad (e.g. McDonald's, KFC etc.). In my case this was because I was doing what's called "reverse bedtime procrastination" (I hope I remember it correctly). Essentially "I don't want tomorrow to come, I haven't spent time for myself/my project etc. I will stay up a bit more." * You have been conditioned to "clean up your plate" to the point that you eat even when you are full. (Usually from childhood) Apart from these; * Remember to drink water (if hungry, just drink a glass of water and then if you are still hungry, eat.) * Prefer "unprocessed over processed" and "protein over carbs". You don't need to avoid everything - just make sure to pick one over the other when you can. (e.g. instead of bread with Nutella as your lunch, eat bread with an egg.) * Do NOT starve yourself. If you feel hungry, eat! Otherwise you will end up bingeing. Just keep your portion size "intentional". * In order to keep your portion size intentional - prepare your food on kitchen, put it on your plate in terms of whatever is a "good size" and then leave the kitchen, eat in another room. Having food on the table where you eat as much as you want usually leads to overeating - mainly because at some point you switch to "eating for pleasure" and it takes a while to notice that. * While this won't make you lose weight by much - please walk for 20 minutes a day. Make sure to leave your house for this. Don't use your phone, don't listen to a podcast or anything just go out, and walk for 20 minutes. It will be good for your mind and your weight (it is quite a short period of time but it is your _disconnecting_ time.). * Finally - sleep, sleep, sleep! I am saying it twice but it is extremely important that you get your proper amount of sleep. There is always a next day, and you need rest. A well rested mind & body makes for better decision making & will-power as well. I hope it helps. Remember - weight loss is not a goal, a balanced life is. You need to find a sustainable lifestyle that is healthy for you, and then your weight will fall into place.
