[quote=Anonymous]First, congratulations on your weightloss and desire to eat better! That's huge, and should not be underestimated.

I'm about 30 lbs overweight, and started working out bigtime in early February. Losing weight has always been a struggle, and exercising plus a diet change is often overwhelming, and doesn't last long. I read an article a few months ago, that encouraged people to "do one at a time" - either add exercise and eat the same, or don't add an exercise routeine and change your diet.

For me, the former is SO much easier. Being able to exercise and eat whatever, is much more enjoyable. So I've been hitting the gym 4-5 days a week, every week.

What I've noticed as the weeks and months go on by, is that naturally, I don't feel like eating as much and don't feel like binging - and I did used to binge. I don't require myself to stay without a certain calorie range, but not binging makes it easier for me to exercise and work out. I don't feel as sick by stuffing myself. And while I do indulge, it seems to naturally be less. I'm not making a concerted effort in cutting back.

If you can, I would try and include an exercise regimen and hold yourself to it. Do one thing at a time. Things will seem less insurmountable that way, and even better if you can get your pals on board.
