ok so.. i have a problem.. it seems like whenever i'm bored i eat little snacks.. but i'm wondering if there's like a small snack that i can eat whenever i'm just looking for something, that's not gum, and doesn't have alot of calories in it. even if i'm not hungry.. i still eat! it's crazy.. any suggestions at all would be helpful. thanks and good luck everyone!

I am sitting here drinking coke and eating chips(real healthy dont u think), but i dunno how to stop over eating. If u can believe it i used to weigh 110 in 5th grade and now in 7th i am almost 200 pounds over that. I eat compolsivly and cant stop, and my friends are starting 2 notice how much weight i am gaining. Literally i only weight 294 about 2 weeks ago. It is scaring me because i know i can die but i cant stop eating and eating. im sorry i just double checked my weight its 310 so i am 200 pounds more then i was in 5th grade. It is so embarrassing really. I believe in the begining of the year i only weighed 198. I need help my sn is irishblondie224, but please post tips to help me stop my compolsing eating!!!! Thanks!!!!

ughh I keep eatting my day's suply of calories before 4 oclock! That means I can't eat anything else for the rest of the day and I just get bored and in the mood for food! I should space it out a lot better but its tough...Today I had eggs for breakfast which was only around 200 calories but then I had lots of pasta with cheese and microwave popcorn and pretzels which had to be around 1000 calories right there! So already I'm at 1200.
I went bike riding for hald an hour at least. sighhh

I went on my mini cycle yesterday for an hour, which is good, but I can't stop eating. *sigh* It's one of those times I just wanna scream "WHY IS IT SO HARD!!" I woke up this morning feeling ill so I haven't been on the mini cycle today, I might go for a bike ride later though.
I'm tired, annoyed, and I'm not hungry, yet I eat. >:(
