[quote=Anonymous]I have always been overweight, and in fact am 280 at 5'3 and which is very disgustingly obese I know. I eat horribly - sweets, diet sodas, any breads, very little water, fruits and veggies pretty much never, etc. There is no set time that I eat, but anytime I'm hungry and feel like it. I also eat out 3-4 times a week because I shamefully don't know how to cook and haven't bothered to try to learn. Fortunately right now I don't have diabetes, but I know that many factors are probably due to my unhealthy lifestyle (suspected thyroid problem, sleeping problems, low energy). I used to always go on diets but quit a couple years ago because I never stuck with them for any length of time, except about 5 years ago when I was doing Slim Fast and lost about 20lbs....then went back to not caring anymore. I also find myself hungry and eating again after I already ate and I feel like this is part of the thyroid issue or because I don't eat foods that make me full longer.

I am very bitter about myself because I never want to socialize because of the way I look and I don't want to end up dying over an issue I could have prevented. For someone like me who always eats crappy, bad food, doesn't exercise, and eats out a lot, where do I even start to find a diet or type of food guideline for myself? I don't have insurance or otherwise I would go to a dietician to help me find a guideline that would personally fit me.

For any healthy eaters, health nuts, or anyone else, I would appreciate any advice or constructive criticism.[/quote]
