How do I gain self control when it comes to eating healthy or dieting?

Q: I am about 30 lbs. over weight and I tried weight watchers to lose weight, it worked but I didn’t stick with it so I am back were I started. I don’t exercise, I don’t eat right, and ALMOST don’t even care. Deep down I do though and wish I could have self control over food. I know that I have self control considering I have overcome other and worse addictions just fine, one being to stop smoking cigarettes. How can I practice good eating habits for longer then a few weeks wthout giving up?

A: You have to make a decision. Do you want to be healthy or not? Start with small steps and do it to be healthy, not so much to lose weight. I know it kind of sounds like it doesn’t make sense. But if you make your goal to be healthy and not to lose weight the results will last longer! There are too many diets and pills and regiments that will help you just lose weight, but so many people gain it back because they didn’t learn to live to be healthy. Start exercising 3x a week. For me I had to join a class because on my own I was not disciplined enough. Don’t eat out more than once a week. This was the hardest for me. It is so tempting to just call and order pizza, or make a run to the fast food place down the street, instead of planning a meal. Once you start to lose weight, and go down in clothing sizes it is enough motivation to get you through the tough times!
