Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Mental health?
Portion control, mostly. Also, what helps me, when I'm ready to dive into eating junk food, ask yourself if it's fuel [for your body]. Hopefully you should have enough common sense to realize that and answer that question. Also, don't make it so easy for you to just get up and walk into the kitchen to eat junk. Instead of having that, have fruit. :] It's what I do.

What I think you should do is think every time you want to eat, think about all of your choices. If you want to eat something high in fat or sugar, think about fruits or veggitalbes you have in your house. Also, you could think about how much healthier you can become by eating healthier. Hope i helped a little. make good choices.

-always measure stuff out in a measuring cup and put it in a container or baggie instead of eating it out of the box.
-only eat at the table or in the kitchen.
-and i can't stress this enough, follow the food pyramid.
and in this months issue of Seventeen, their are lots of tips on that kind of stuff.
hope i helped :)

An easy way foor controlling how much to eat is to choose a smaller plate. Everything is okay in moderation...

You need to set up a schedule for eating and snacking and STICK TO IT. Once your body gets used to eating at those times, the rest comes pretty easily. When going for a snack, remind yourself that you don't want to spoil your next meal, so have something small to tide you over. When it comes time for actual meals, focus on what level of hunger you have and not how good the food looks. If you time your meals correctly, you will never be "starving." Chew all your food slowly and sip water or juice between each bite. You'll get full faster and you'll actually be able to appreciate what you are eating.

Well you can eat little by little. If you were craving for something. Instead of eating a whole lot. Just tell yourself to have a little bit. Its all in your mind set. if you set your mind to do and tell yourself to eat little at a time. Then you will do it eventually. But it takes time and practices. You won't be able to do it over night.
hope I helped. good luck. =].
