Eating nonstop.
Okay, so I've always had a problem as far as snacking too much, ever since I was little. But in the last month or so, I've gone into overdrive & I eat everything in site, and my servings are about 2 times more than they should be. I eat about 3 BIG meals a day, and in between, i have cheddar chex mix (small bag), cookie dough, brownies, muffins, cookies, and blueberry bagels with cream cheese ...basically, whatever I can lay my hands on. (Just writing this makes me crave food...) I just can't stop myself, because I just don't' have the will power. Also, for dinner, I have a greasy slice of pizza almost every night, since I work at a grocery store..
also, i don't have the will power to exercise... which is really bad.
My thighs have blown up, along with my stomach & i must've gained at least 5 pounds in the last 4-5 weeks or so :(
I guess my questions are basically this:
-How can I stop myself? I always tell myself "It's okay! Just one more bite!" Or "You only live once! "
-Does anybody know any good diets to go on?
-& Is cheddar chex mix okay to eat as a snack (obv. in moderation)

Don't keep too much extra food at home, and make sure that the food you do have at home is something that's good for you. You can't snack if you haven't got any snacks.
Also, keep yourself busy so that you don't think about snacking all the time.
That said, it doesn't mean you have to go without the food that you like altogether. A little bit once in a while is always fine.
For your dinner, can you bring something to work? Something that isn't greasy like pizza. Get a Thermos flask to keep your food warm, and that way you can have hot food.
As for quick exercises, try doing crunches. Here are some instructions on how to do it properly. [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
Of course, getting exercise into your everyday life would be the best. Say, if you would normally go anywhere by bus, try getting off a stop earlier and walking the rest of the way. If you can afford it, getting a bike and riding to places would work too, and the freedom is quite a bonus.

Pretty much anything in moderation is okay. Yeah, what's moderation though? That would be a small amount every now and then, like maybe once every other 6 months. I guess it depends on who you ask and what it is you are using. Okay, enough of that. LOL Anyway, I guess it's all a matter of, do you like being fat? Does it bother you enough that the you are willing try anything to not being fat? Does it upset you when you look in the mirror? My point is does it bother you enough to say I want to change? Next time look in a mirror before you grab that pizza slice or that cookie, tell yourself, "If I eat this I will be fatter than what I see now." Take a little mirror with you if you have to, check it often when you feel that craving to eat unhealthy. If you gotta eat, put something good in your mouth. Something loaded with vitamins and minerals. Eating is a have to thing and eating unhealthy can be an addiction that has to be treated as such. Anyway, best of luck.
