Minor overeating problem

Hi I just joined because I've been noticing I can't seem to control my eating. I'm not overweight, but I'm afraid if I don't learn to eat properly, I will gain weight. I want to lose a few pounds but I'm embarrassed to talk to anyone about seriously doing it, because no one in my family thinks it's really an issue. But they don't see me eating when they're not home...and just so you know, I'm not a binge eater, I just eat too much unhealthy things in between meals and it makes me feel awful. I'm not sure where the overeating stems from because I don't have many problems in my life and am not emotionally messed up. I don't think anyone would guess I struggle with myself about food. I just know the more I keep eating, the worse I feel, but I can't seem to break the cycle. Does anyone have any suggestions?

HI GNRgirl,

I'm Dee. I can relate to your minor overeating problem. I think its because I don't eat the three meals a day as recommended. Then when I get bored, I start eating, munching, not even realizing it.

Anyway, welcome to a great community with lots of kind people. Looking forward to seeing ya around!

Yeah, me too. Thanks for responding
