I can't stop eating!

So yea... I have all this weight to lose.

But now that I'm not pregnant, I found that my appetite is through the roof. When I was preggo I didn't want to eat anything.

I sit here thinking... What do I want to eat now. Lol.

I went and tried clothes on the other day and was mortified... but now I feel I'm addicted to food. I wish I could make myself stop.

How do you guys keep from giving into temptation!?

I want to lose weight and get toned again so bad.

I had almost lost all of my pregnancy weight and then BAM... I started eating and can't stop. :S And gained 10 back. HOLY COW!!!

    I really pigged out this weekend (Canadian Thanksgiving). I ate lots of cheesecake, chips, turkey, ham ...crazy amounts of food. I've told myself I'm not going to watch what I eat until 6 weeks PP (which is this Friday for me). Well today because I felt completely guilty I am now sitting down with carrots, cucombers, celery and a peanut butter sandwich. I think what is going to help me keep eating healthy is preparing cut up veggies and fruit while LO sleeps and then snacking on those throughout the day. I also hope to plan our meals for a week (which is what I did before I gave birth) and that way we will always have healthy dinners. 

    I might also think about packing a lunch for DH and I at night ...just incase LO does not sleep during the day

    I'm using myfitnesspal app. It's free and fantastic!!! Plus we allow ourselves to eat what we want on Saturdays and Sundays.. I've been doing it for two weeks I've lost five pounds about two a week which is healthy.

    With DS wanting to be held all the time, I'm lucky to get breakfast. Holding him and eating makes me eat really slow so I feel fuller faster. Not exactly how I expected to lose weight but I'm down 30lbs so I'm not complaining

    This is me too. I've lost all my preg weight, but this week I've been SO hungry. Last weekend I ate more food than I ate my entire pregnancy (obviously exaggerating, but you get the idea). I don't get it. I'm STARVING, like I've never eaten food before and I just don't get it.
