What are ways for people to overcome eating addictions.?

Question

How do people over come eating addictions. Why doesn't the ogoverment fund more programs or provide more medical assistance to people trying to overcome eating addictions?


Do you ever notice how expensive and how risky some of the treatments there are out there for that.

I understand some people suffer trauma and eat as a result to comfort. But, what if people just really enjoy it?

Thoughts?


BTW I am not obese but I do like to eat and sometimes I like to eat a little too much and just wondered what ideas there are to overcome my eating habits.

For Giggly Giraffe I didn't say I had addiction that I was just wondering!

Answer 1

Your Doctor can hook u up with a good diet ,there's Dietitians
that give good advice through Hospital.You can figure out what's best for you and not someone else.Maybe you require
more green veggies,then your neighbor, Mother,or sister.
The hard part is stay power on any new menu for your food intake.Good Luck.Think small portions this helps,like I can always go back for a small amount more.Use small dishes,
and silverware.Instead of a full portion do a half.A half sandwich,soup,and salad.Cut out breads completely for
awhile,no sweets,eat fruits instead of sweets.Apples, carrots, and raisins are very good for you.

Answer 2

Sometimes people eat because they are bored. Find something to do when you get that urge to eat. Pick up a hobby. When you are eating and know that you want to go over board, you just gotta know when to say....STOP!

Answer 3

Eatting addictions are psychological above all.

Do you want the government to wipe your butox after you poo too? I don't put my hope in the government. However, I agree that government regulation of contents of food is acceptable. Why are we a society that cry's "Government save us"??? It's a false hope when we do so.

Enjoyment is psychological. In the past you had good times eating and this brings you pleasure. So, addicted to 'feeling' good is the same as being addicted to feeling good while drinking.
