....but, why? i guess i was wondering why are you wanting to lose weight again?

Fashion! The XL shirts are a little too small, but the XXL shirts are usually too big.

Perhaps you should try to initiate mindful eating. Try to think about what you are eating and why you are eating each time you eat. I find that if I am about to put something like a potato chip in my mouth but then think about the potato chip (or whatever) and what it is made out of and how it is made and what physical effects are on my body, I'm less likely to eat something like a potato chip. I think it is OK to eat things like cheeseburgers, hoagies and fried chicken but then you need to consciously balance these types of foods with lower fat/lower sodium type of foods on other days. Also a lot of people find that keeping some sort of food journal helps them. Yoko is using http://foodfeed.us/

Good advice. Mindful eating is definitely what I need. Thanks!

True dat.

drinking alot of water and tea helps me
also, that picture is awesome

Good point. A big cup of decaf green tea in the evening does much to hold back my need to snack.

vegetables...

yeah, the whole hydration thing. I have had, and continue to have, a problem where I think I'm hungry all the time, but it turns out I'm mostly thirsty. I start craving all kinds of juicy foods (or even dry foods, but accompanied by a hot drink) in response to a physical sensation that I think is hunger. So now I've learned to test my thirst level first. Take a drink... oh, just thirsty, ok. - trix

I'm drinking a liter of water as I type this!

Methods I use:
1. consider hunger a scale 1-10. 1 is passing out from hunger (really, not that "I'm starving to death" b.s. 10 is about to reenact that scene from "Meaning of life") Don't eat until you hit 5 and stop @ 7.
2. Bulk up on fiber and water. But go easy on the fiber supplements. A little excess water is easy to get rid of, too much fiber (experiment slowly) and well, gas could become an issue.
3. Don't eat unless you've earned your food with exercise.
4. Try eating SMALLER more frequent meals. I have a buddy who lost much of his excess fat this way. And he was already in great shape. Now people think he's too skinny. But he has way boatloads of energy.
5. Eat slowly and savor each bite (and keep #1 in mind)

--And most important. Give yourself a break on beating yourself up over this. Eating is a basic drive. We live in a time & place where all sorts of food is plentiful & cheap. Our bodies are geared to store energy when it's plentiful and available.
