I have had a weight problem for years and it has spoiled my experience of life.

Since I am still struggling, I am just going to give you a few tips that worked for me, hoping it will provide assistance to you.

- Beating yourself on the head and comparing yourself to skinnier people will NOT help you. Decide that,from now on: your body issue is YOUR issue, not your sister's issue, not society's issue, YOUR issue. That means that YOU and only YOU can negatively or positively change the way your body looks or feel.
- Decide to deal with this issue in the PRESENT. Not in the past: thinking about the mean doctor ( He probably had a small penis therefore was threatened by anything/anyone that seemed to be bigger than usual!!!).Stop thinking about the way people treat you and think about the ways you could treat yourself better.
-Eat as much as you want and what you want WITHOUT feeling guilty about it. Choose organic food version of the food you usually eat ( if you eat junk food). I got rid of my bulimia by doing this: I ate organic versions of junk food (organic whole wheat pizza instead of Domino's pizza, organic potatoe chips instead of Doritos etc etc...). Give yourself abundance, not deprivation.Always have a snack in your purse, never be without food! It will give your subconscious mind the message that you have food on the ready, therefore you do not need to "panic" that you have nothing to eat.
-Take Omega 3, 3 times a day and Chromium to stop sugar craving,drink green tea ( a lot).This should help tremenduously, you should be less hungry and make better eating choices.
-I used self hypnosis cds and I lost 4 pounds within 2 weeks. (paul mckenna). You have to listen to the cd at least once a day.
-Convince yourself that you will lose the weight, no matter how long it takes.

Good luck to you. You are not alone in this struggle, but you have everything you need inside you to fight and succeed.
