a lot of people eat when they are depressed, i do the opposite.. thank god. but i eat when im stressed.aside from the obvious eating right, and exercise, you have to know what that is to do it.whole grains (pasta, cereal, bread) i eat shredded wheat n bran with non fat milk, its the healthiest breakfast option i have found. whole grain pasta is good with newmans own marinara sauce, it tastes good and is healthy.fruits (plums, mango, kiwi, apples, grapes) make it fun and get new fruit that tastes good.veggies (avocado, tomato) pack these on a sandwich (no cheese it has refined carbs and a lot of saturated fat). i get cans of veggies so if i am feeling like eating something bad i open up the can of veggies and eat it real quick and i just ate something good instead of something bad and im not hungry anymore. lean meats and fish (chicken, turkey, salmon, tuna) not fried, no skin.dairy (nonfat milk, nonfat cottage cheese) dairy can be tricky because if you re not careful you can consume a lot of saturated fats. eggs for example contain a lot of saturated fats and cholesterol in the yolk. i will just cook the white part and make a sandwich out of it.you are supposed to get 32g of dietary fiber a day and along with protein is essential for weight loss. on like a box of shredded wheat n bran it will say there is 8g per serving, look above that where it says servings per container for example if it said 2, there would be 16g in the whole box (theres more im just making an example). also look for low sugars, unless it is fruit you probably don t want foods high in sugar. be careful of too much sodium as well. and most of off saturated fats. some fats are good and healthy, monosaturated fats, and polyunsaturated fats are good for you, however like anything else you dont want to overdo it.also exercise and drink 64oz of water a day, is the recommended intake of an active person. make exercise fun, go swimming, skateboarding, play basketball, go to the gym. resistance training (weight lifting is the best for losing weight) because for every pound of muscle you gain that pound of muscle eats 50 more calories a day just to stay alive, without doing anything.im majoring in nutrition so if you have any more questions please e mail me.

Don t try any fad diets as these can end up making you more depressed. Fat loss is what you are looking for and beware that many diets out there will help you shed muscles also. this will not help.You will need to stick to a routine, get more excecise and find foods that satisfy your appetite.Dr. Charlie Rouse is an expert on this subject and could help.See http://www.10dayslimdownchallenge.com for more details.
When you re upset try to do smething other than eat...try going for a walk....also, it woulde good i you try to stay happy and avoi gettig mad....that s easier than you think it is..don t let things get to you...that s all I can tell you....
I agree you should eat healthy drinking water get good rest and get 30min. of exercise 5 days a week
hunger hurts but starving works!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey. :DThe one thing that you really need is exercise. Eating right is also helpful, but you can still eat certain things AS LONG as you workoff alot of the calories.Don t trust those pill diets and things like that. EAT healthy and exercise atleast an hour a day. Jogging/running will definitely help. :DDAnd I m the same with food when I m depressed, but it s our choice. Next time you feel depressed, snap yourself out of it and start exercising. Exercising also relieves alot of stress and will make you feel much better.
Great excercise comes from activity. I would say join sports. That is the surest way I know of to beat depression and weight gain.
30 min. or more excersise is reccomended for everyone. so if you are trying to lose weight quickly, i say do active things like power walking, running, aerobics, dancing. excersise that makes you sweat means it s burning calories (;
