How to think like a skinny person
1. Food is sustenance. It's not comfort. It's not warmth. It's not family. It's just food. We must eat to live. We don't live to eat.
2.That said- when we eat, we'd rather practice healthy eating habits than fill our bodies with empty calories and junk food. Not because we're psychotic about our girly physique, but because we like to get the most out of our food. When we eat healthy, we feel alert, energetic, and alive. When we eat junk food, we feel sluggish, sick, and icky. No one likes feeling icky.
You should not let your emotions control your appetite. Sometimes our emotions dictate what we want to eat. It is wrong, because we can not even notice the amount of food we consume. If we keep on living as emotional eaters we will face problems with weight. The main thing you should remember is that you have to control your food preferences and limit the amount of food you eat, so that it does not depend upon your feelings.
Be careful with eating out. Eating out should not be regarded as cheat; if you dine out in the restaurant, be careful because it is easy to become confused and eat anything you like. So as it has been already mentioned discipline is very important. If you do not exercise good discipline, you will not be able to succeed in the weight loss process and get rid of those unwanted pounds.
You should always watch what you eat and what portion of food you eat. It is wrong if you perceive it as a reward. I mean if you have accomplished something and you think that you can lose control and eat everything you want and any portions you like, no matter how big they are. Doing this, and thinking that you deserve reward will lead you to problems with weight. We blame our systems for so many illnesses and disorders caused by wrong food and bad portion management. You should discipline and stick to it.
You should not follow your friends. Your friends can do wrong things. Very often you can do bad things together with your friends and have fun. The same relates to dieting issues. Sometimes friends cheat in their weight loss programs.

Why? Why do I have trouble with food?
I look at my body and people say I am blessed. I am 177 pounds. Looking at me you would probably think that I am 140 or 150 pounds.
But when I look in the mirror I feel disgusting. When I see pictures of myself I cry. I don't want to be seen, I don't want to participate, and I don't want to live.
At one point in my life I was 200pounds. My sophomore year of highschool I started to lose weight and by time I was a senior in high school I weighed 150 pounds and felt great even though I wanted to lose more weight.
When I went off to college the struggle with weight started coming back.
I'm slipping back into that mindset again. The feeling that food controls my life, that I am weak to food, that food is my best friend and I must eat it.
I'm going back to starving myself and then by mid-afternoon I get so hungry that I just start to eat. Then I go back for more food. Then I start to feel bad about what I ate and then I start eating again.
It's killing me because it took me three years, from sophomore to senior year, to stop this addiction from food and I'm slipping back. I don't know how to get that strength back. I forgot where to start. I'm starting to feel weaker and weaker everyday to food. I feel that I go back to 200 pounds again, I will literally kill myself. I won't be able to deal with myself if I was that big again.
I hope that fat secret will help me gain back that strength again.

Weapons of Mass Destruction
Who are those geniuses that came up with "fake food." You walk through the isles of Jewels, Meijers, Kogers, or wherever you call your local grocer, and you look at the labels-since that is what nutritionist and diet blogs tell you to do-and see pepperoni flavor, but you see on the pizza box a picture of a full pepperoni.
Why do these weapons of mass destruction even exist. Even worse they are addictive, even worse they cause muffin tops, even worse they are cheap and everywhere you go. Being at the precious age of twenty-one I'm suppose to be full of life, beautiful, young, instead i'm in a constant battle with the makings of those geniuses that came up with "fake food." My very first battle with WMD's came today. WMD's know how to satisfy my emotions in the most cruelest ways.
Being a college student I came home to my quaint apartment feeling defeated. Wondering if I had enough brain cells to write a paper at the standards of my ivy league educated professor. I opened up the fridge wanting those crispy frozen chicken nuggets that my fiance bought. Instead I looked at my stomach, Carrie Bradshaws amazing abs and reached for an orange. I ate my orange loving my victory over WMD's.
I learned a valuable lesson today. Eating healthy can make you full. Eating better does make you happy. Eating healthy makes you happy rather than its evil brother. WMD's makes you want to cry. Eating them I constantly think how its going to increase my waistline. Today I realized that WMD's do not have to be apart of my life.
