You probably wouldn't believe this,but i weigh 160pd.Yes i am ashamed of myself, but i try to lose the weight by working on my dumb-bell. if you don't know what that is, it's this machiene that you use to lstrengthen your muscels and to lose some weight. what you wanna do is cut back on how much you eat for breakfast, luch, and supper. Especially cut back on the junk food. i can understand that you have a craving for food because i do too. but when i'm trying to loose weight and when i want a snack, but i know i'm not hungry, i tell myself," ok Rebecca you know that you don't need this stuff so put it away now." or i just cut back on how much i eat for a snack. say like before i used to have 6-8 cookies for a snack, well every week i would cut back to 7 cookies, then 6, and then 5,and so on. until i got to the point where i trained my body to not be hungry all the...

Hey all. I posted a message on this site a few days ago and someone named Lindsay gave me a tip that eating ice helps stop cravings... Well I came home today from school and opened the fridge (automatic move)lol and I saw a plate of cupcakes sitting there. I only ate one but I went back for a second. It took me a long time to resist that second cupcake craiving lol but I grabbed some ice to eat insted. Thanks Lindsay. If anyone has some more tips just post them thanks! :)

A good way to stop them is to drink alot of ICE cold water and then tell yourself ou can eat it in exactly an hour or something... by then youll have gotten over it.. Another way is getting yourself as far away from teh problem as POSSIBLE. Like go for a walk or swimming or something.. hope this helped!

I am 14 years old and I know I am not over weight but I want to loose some pounds. I excercise at the local gym at least twice a week and I try to eat less but I just get a craving for junk and it just messes up everything. What can I do to get rid or a craving so I can loose some weight in about a month?

When you get a craving for junk, east something sweet and healthy instead, like fruit, or chew gum

Hi I am 5'8 and 250lbs. I really want to lose weight. I started REALLY trying to lose it by excersising and watching my calories. I did this for about 2 1/2 weeks then easter kicked in and i sort of got off track. I am getting back on the habit of excersising and counting my calories. Does anyone have any tips? I would really appriciate them. And also another thing that is making me wanting to lose the weight is that i have never had a boyfriend and i really want one but i know that i cant get one becasue i am fat. ~Heather
