I know everyone loves food but for me it seems extreme. 75% of my thoughts on a daily basis tend to be about food. What I want to eat tonight. What I want to eat tomorrow. That amazing meal I had 3 days ago. That one restaurant in town I really want to try. That delicious microwaveable snack I have in the freezer (actually I think I’ll go make that right now.)
The thing is, once I stuff my face and feel bloated, I always feel some sort of regret. For example, about a week ago I really wanted Mexican food, so I went to a local pickup place, and REALLY couldn’t decide on two different things. I was so hungry and they both looked so good. Plus I had been thinking about it for at least an hour. I ended up getting them both. Both were giant portions, and you bet I ate every single bite. It was probably around 2000 calories total, possibly more. Afterwards I felt extremely full and bloated and felt ashamed for getting two entrees instead of one. I told myself next time I will only get one and that I’ve learned my lesson. Well, last night I went to the same place again. And guess what, I got two entrees. AGAIN. And I ate them both, AGAIN. And just like the first time, I felt very full and bloated and told myself I’ve learned my lesson for REAL this time.
Just looking for any general advice really. Both for portion sizes and being less obsessed with food. I’m scared of repeating this cycle forever.
I’m 28M 6’1” 220lbs which on paper doesn’t look horrible but I gain ALL my weight in my mid section, not to mention my weight has been trending up way too quickly for my liking. My goal is to get between 190-195 and maintain.
