I usually do so well, but then I get on a kick and eat like a pig....right now it's chips and salsa. I work soooo hard. How can I make myself have self control?

Cut back portions and be comfortable with hunger for at least a couple of weeks...Your hunger pangs will decrease because THis will shrink your stomach and control long term cravings...I've already lost 50 pounds in 6 months using this method...

I lost 105 pounds in 6 months. Here is how I did it.
1. Every morning get up and walk for 45 minutes. You can start with less time, but you want to get up to 45 minutes, and it must be fast walk. You want your heart rate to go up. It must be in the morning, it kick starts your metabolism.
2. I cut out Red Meat, and fatty foods. Boneless skinnless chicken breast, baked, or grilled, rice and vegetables (steamed).
3. Eat half. Just eat half of what you normally eat. Put 1/2 on your plate, and put the rest away. Cook less. When you go to fast food, get salads only. Or grilled chicken. No fries, diet soda. Or water.
It will work, once you get into a routine, you will get hooked on the results, and you will keep the routine. It has been over a year for me.

I tend to be a fast eater so I have to learn to stop eating before I get full. If you are exercising regularly and eating good most of the time than indulging yourself every now and again is ok. Your body needs to have its calorie intake vary from time to time just like a work out needs to change from time to time. This is to keep it from getting into a rut. I would not worry about what you are doing unless your weight is yoyoing a lot.

I eat like a bird. I get maybe one meal a day, if I'm lucky. I still don't know why I'm still here, why I haven't turned to dust and blown away in the wind.

I do the same thing. I think I eat out of boredom. You gotta do something else. Occupy your time some how.
