Although for the past month I have managed to keep myself very very busy inorder not to start over eating, or eat the bad stuff that i like, especially when i was bored or felt shitty... but im kinda of tired of staying busy and i need a new way of motivating myself, in order to help keep me away from indulging in bad food...

Welcome to the forum.

It's much easier said than done, but you have to start by exercising willpower. Just because you're bored or aren't busy doing something at a particular moment doesn't mean you have to run to the kitchen to grab a snack. But, hey...if you do feel like snacking, try eating healthy, low-calorie options. Get yourself some fruit, yogurt, cottage cheese, cheese sticks, low-calorie crackers, etc. And, when you feel like snacking, don't go to Starbucks and consume a 1,000 calorie drink - just eat something healthy you have at home.

And, congrats on the progress so far. A month isn't a very long time, but you're already seeing results - that's a good thing. Keep it up and the changes will keep happening.

So far I can see a very good beginning. When you are out sometimes it is difficult not to snack. A coffee isn't actually all that bad. Caffeine is well know fat releaser. The sugar free syrup may contain aspartame or another chemical that may actually put on weight depending on how your body reacts to it. It is more what else you have with it. A doughnut is not going to go along well with it.

I would very much like to help you out. My name is George and I am a fitness and nutrition freak. For my whole life I have been active. For 25 years I have learned about nutrition, food, herbs, dieting, and everything in between.

There is no perfect diet for everyone in the world. We all have different backgrounds and lifestyles. I myself allow myself to have a cheat meal every few days. I am right where I want to be so more than once a week is ok for me. Once every seven days as a reward a cheat meal is fine in my book.

Sugar is USUALLY the enemy of weight loss, but immediately after a workout a handful of gummie bears or jelly beans is actually beneficial. It has been proven that, as long as the first ingredient of the gummie bear or jelly bean is glucose, it is actually beneficial. The glucose restores the glycogen stores that got depleted after a hard workout, and forces nutrients back into the muscles also causing faster recovery.

Now back to the boredom eating. Peanut butter is my go to snack. Low sugar, low carb, ok amount of protein. I'll have a spoonful with nothing else. Water is another filler. Also at night I will mix casein protein and water and drink that. Slow digesting and filling. Feeds the muscles protein for a few hours while I sleep.

I could ramble on for a quite awhile more, so if you need more info send me a message. Any confusion about what I put in here I can also clear up... like the gummie bear thing. It seems backwards from what we are taught about nutrition, but I have been doing this for awhile now and it helps me to not want any more sugar throughout the day.
