I am this way, too. I think you just need to start with very very small steps. For example, try just substituting better foods where you would usually eat bad ones. Like if you want something sweet maybe eat strawberries dipped in fat free whipped cream instead of cheesecake. Or if you want a cheeseburger, try making one on the grill (or george foreman) with extra lean beef and fat free or reduced fat cheese on a whole wheat bun. Any little steps you take to reduce your calorie intake will help. And as you start to feel your body start to feel better, it will get easier. You will probably feel this in about a week. Or, if you aren't ready to change your eating, make a commitment to work out for at least 30 minutes at least 4 days a week (or a similar goal...maybe even just start out with 15 minutes every day) and even just alternate running in place and walking in place while you watch your favorite tv show. If you try to make small changes one at a time, you probably won't feel so overwhelmed and give up all together. keep trying!
