Try eating more slowly. It takes at least 15 minutes to trick your brain into thinking that you are full. Yes, your depression could be a factor in this. Food is a comfort to many people. Maybe you eat because you're bored-- I do. Try to fall into a routine, where you do something with your hands after a meal. I used to eat while I watched TV, not because I was hungry, but just to do something with my hands. Drink 8-10 glasses of water a day. When you are thirsty, your brain sometimes gets confused and tells you that you need to eat. Another tip is to brush your teeth with minty toothpaste after every meal. This discourages you from eating for a little because the minty taste + whatever you try to eat afterward will leave a bad taste in your mouth. ]
It is true that when someone is depressed they tend to "eat" their problems away. Try talking to a councelor or someone about your problems. The less you are depressed the less you will feel you have to eat all the time. Good Luck! :)

I think you might not be eating the right kind of nourishment for your body. For example if you dont eat any carb or meat lets say, you are getting completly full of all the vitamains so your body goes into a sort of starvation phase. i think you should make sure youre
1. Drinking lots of liquids ESPECIALLY water
2. Try and eat all different color food! Like fruits and Veggies so then you know you are getting different vitamins.
3. Balance all your meals out to make sure your getting a bit of each food group
4. EXCERCISE! It will help you look better, but more importantly feel better about yourself! Good luck! write me back if you need more help! ]
First off... 135 is not bad! Omg thats like a great size! and yeah depression eather makes you loose appitie or for some all they want to do is eat. Dont worry sweetie your not fat... Just maybe since you do have depression maybe you should get on meds and that'll help you. But dont worry your not fat! Just keep smiling sweetie and remember things will get better :)

Get help talk to your mom or dad or some close family member or a family friend or someone and maybe you can get pills to help you with your depression. You could also do the South beach diet my aunt and mom did that and lost alot in weeks!! good luck CJ!! -trix ]
your depression may have some things to do with this.. if you don't like how you look, you're the only one who controlls that. if you are still hungary try to controll yourself and not eat anything after that unless you have a really big craving.. im not saying that you shouldn't have a snack or something after dinner but wait a little while and don't have it directly after dinner. also, you could try excersing. i wouldn't go on any diets though, you might end up starving yourself or something. also, if you want to stop this eating thing ( if it is apart of your depression ) then maybe you should find the cause of that and get through that first and then maybe you will conquer your eating habits.
good luck and i hope i helped.. don't forget to rate me! :) ]
Yes, depression can have something to do with it. And 135 isn't too much. Try eating a lot of healthy foods, and then do some exercises. Several of my friends tell me that physical activity is supposed to help make you happier. I'm not really sure I believe that, but it's worth a shot. Take care, I'm sure you'll be fine. ]
Something that helped me lose weight was the Atkins diet. I know its a little Cliche, but it works! I used to be around 215 and I dropped down to 180 within about 3 months.
The depression may have something to do with your eating patterns. Maybe you should talk to your doctor about getting an anti-depressant or something of that nature.
Hope this helps! ]
it might be that ur depression makes u want to eat but it could really just be that u arent getting the right nutrition. even eating a whole full meal could not give u the right nutrients. for example if u r eating protien and what ur body really needs is iron even if u fill urself up w/ that protien, such as meat, ur body might will tell u r hungry because what u really need is iron. so if possible go to a doctor and have them tell u what u might be low on and balance urself out. i hope this helps! ]
