^ Sound advice.
The idea of losing weight comes with fear and no motivation for many. But the idea of being healthy and turning down a desire or two is one of the most rewarding of human experiences. You know when they say you've got to see it to believe it? Yeah, that, but more so, you've got to feel it. Along with exercising, vigorously if you need to, you've got to amend your eating habits and patterns. You don't necessarily need to stop things, swap them for healthier alternatives. You're still getting a satisfying full, but it's a lot more rewarding when you've reduced the guilt. So here's what I would do, well very few of things I would do, the list can go on:
Drinks: no fizzy/carbonated drinks, no juices. Only 100%, preferably home made and plenty of water.
Main meals: if you're really good, go for fruit and veg, proteins, and white meat - chicken and fish. Have eggs. If you want to stick to your foods, start swapping or reducing portion sizes.
Snacks: have nuts, dried and fresh fruit, carrots, fillers such as chia seed. Almond butter and honey is a delicious treat.
Swap: sugar for honey, agave or organics. Swap white bread for brown, or breads for rice crackers, swap potato chips for vege chips, full fat for low fat dairy. Swap vegetable oils for olive. Have cleansing and fibre-rich foods like psyllium husks. If you're super good, go carb free for a while. No potatoes, no rice, no unhealthy filler foods. And try exercising until you see results, then the appeal and drive will follow.
Eating healthy is a beautiful thing. Don't let those things burden you, make it a choice, and keep at it. There is nothing more fulfilling than knowing you can curb your eating desires. It's as human as human can get.
