Q: First off I would like to say sorry for posting this more than once, but I need advice again. I think I am a compulsive eater. I can't stop. All I think about while I am eating something, is what else I could be eating. I also do not exersize. I am too lazy and I have no motivation whatsoever. What should I do? Does anyone have any websites? Or tips?

I weigh 225. In the past month I have gained like 20. And that is not healthy. What should I do? I need serious help here. My doctor doesn't want to put me on a serious diet.
I wonder if you are eating to mask something else that is going on? How's work/school? Family? Love life? Often times people overeat for the same reasons they drink too much, or shop until they are broke or even do drugs... its a way of making them feel numb to whatever else is going on. If that is the case, admitting whatever it is to yourself is the first step. There is I think overeaters anonymous, if you google or check your yellow pages to find out. If its that you are just soooo hungry... try drinking more water, sometimes people are more thirsty than they are hungry and don't know it. Also, is there a chance you could be pregnant?
Good luck and keep me posted.

:) Hey great advice and no sorry there is no chance that I'm pregnant. I've never even had a real boyfriend.
