Okay, I'm kind of trying to lose some weight, but a lot of times, I feel like I eat too much.It's not like when I eat a meal, I eat until I feel like I'm going to be sick or anything like that; I try to eat small portions.However, I tend to snack a lot during the day instead of eating real meals.Like, I'll eat a Poptart for breakfast, skip lunch, but then eat a few snacks in between breakfast & dinner.
There are some days where I feel like I eat wayy too much because of it.But, I feel like if I were to eat three meals, I'd still end up eating a lot of snacks in between anyways, and that would just make it worse.

I try to eat healthy.I'm a vegetarian and the only snack-type food we really have in my house are animal crackers && pretzels (and chocolate, but I try not to eat a lot of it).

Basically, my problem is I feel like I eat too much, but I want to lose weight.I feel like I have pretty much no self-control. :/

Sorry that this is kind of long.

@ Tamacracker: First, I said "It's not like when I eat a meal, I eat until I feel like I'm going to be sick or anything like that" So, yeah, I am trying to eat small portions. :]

I don't eat meat. ^^; But, I'll certainly keep everything else in mind.

Water is the only thing I ever drink.Haha.

Yeah, I'm trying to not skip meals anymore.

Also... I thought vegetarians didn't eat anything involved with animals? Such as milk.. or chocolate?

What is a Vegetarian?

A vegetarian is someone living on a diet of grains, pulses, nuts, seeds, vegetables and fruits with or without the use of dairy products and eggs (preferably free-range).

:] I chose "with".

Basically, I originally stopped eating meat because I thought I would be able to make a difference && the more I read online about it, the more I liked the idea.I realize that just not eating meat won't change much in general, but for me as a person, I feel a lot better.(I worded that badly. >_<)

Ok so your problem is simple... just stick to eating vegetables and fruits and stay away from sweets/sugars/oil. Eat 5-8 meals a day and drink 1 gallon of water a day. You'll be pleased knowing you're losing weight without using a treadmill.



By the way... you're actually skinny. There's no weight to lose o.O;

Thanks for your advice.

&& there is weight to lose. =/

@ TheWinterBones: I don't neccecarily think I'm fat, I just think I would look/feel better if I lost a little weight.

70 pounds? o_o :[
Wow, I weigh more than that, for sure. XD (Last time I checked, about 107 lbs.)

Close, I'm 15. :]
