Answer
Hello Vickie,
When it comes to weight gain there are so many issues to consider. First of all, there is the physical aspects of weight gain, the mental aspects of weight gain and emotional aspects. It is important for you to be aware of what is going on in your mind when you go for food. Food is comfort. You are needing comfort for some reason. Being a teen is especially challenging and you have hormones circulating and other issues as well. Start a diary and write what y ou eat, and how you feel. Write every bite you take, and the time. This will take some groundwork, but you must start on this now. Please consider reading my books www.nogainnopainbook.com. My approach is mindful. It all starts in the mind. Do you come from a home of obesity? What are you eating when you eat? What is your activity? Do you understand portion sizes? What are you drinking? There are lots of calories in many drinks. The best is to stick to water. It is ok to eat three times an hour, if it is vegetables, with some protein. Protein will help you feel fuller because it takes longer to metabolize. What are you eating when you eat 3 times an hour? Are you drinking enough water? There is so much to discover. It is a journey. Let's begin. Thanks for reaching out to me. Please share again.
