What Are the First Steps in Controlling My Food Addiction?

Question by NINTENDO: What are the first steps in controlling my food addiction?
I have food addiction. It started when I was a child . My mother would feed me fatty food as a reward for finishing my studies.
As I grew up , anytime I did something related to working hard or studying, I would eat like crazy . Yesterday I had a shrimp basket with fried sweet plantains and chicken with rice from the street vendor .
That’s just yesterday. I been eating junk food for the past 3-4 weeks . Let me put it this way. Whenever I finish a hard project, I have to have Junk Food.

I am on a mission now and all this food addiction is messing up my mission and the health of my body. What’s the first step in putting a stop to this atrocity?

When you go to get food put it on a plate and only eat that much or before you eat drink water because sometimes when it seems like your hungry your really thirsty.

There is only one way and is to STOP!
Fatty foods are very adictive beacause your body gets filled with endorphines to balance the digestion of the food, thus you feel good by eating fatty foods beacause edorphine is the feel good hormone.
Most foods are only adictive for 2 weeks, if you succeed to stop eating these foods for 2 weeks you won’t crave them as mutch or even at all.
By working and eating healthy out you speed up the process of losing your adiction because workouts also give you high amounts of edorphines but leaves you starving. Get healthy foods to fill your belly and any time soon you will feel and look great.

I myself had an adiction for food, and now I love healthy food and I am completely adicted to working out, witch feels great. Give it a try.
Oh and one more thing, alcohol and cigarettes are also health crushers so don’t smoke, and avoid drinking to often
