Q. Okay, I have a big sweet tooth.
I want to lose weight, but I can't unless I get away from them.
I binge eat them when I diet for awhile, so how long should it take until I don't crave them anymore?

A. I don't know that the cravings will ever go away, but there are other sweet things (like fruit) that can help curb those cravings. I don't really have any sweets cravings, and I've been doing this for five months, but I'd say it took a month or two? (I also don't have any cravings for soda either - bonus!)
Is it okay to eat a small portion of sweets even though you are trying to lose weight?
Q. People say that you are not suppose to eat sweets when you are dieting but doesn't it depend how unhealthy and fattening they are and if you eat a little bit it wont hurt, right? If you still exercise?
A. Once in awhile is fine. It's not good to ban the foods that you like completely because if they are forbidden, you are more likely to binge. If you know you can have a chocolate once in awhile, it's easier to deal with.
How to stop binging eating for good?
Q. I seriously can't take it anymore... I have a goal, and that goal is to get a nice, ripped core with abs. I can't control what my mom buys at the store though. She comes home with cookies, doughnuts, ice cream, a bunch of processed junk that my body starts to crave and all the weight that I lose over the course of two weeks and the nice results that I start to see, I end up gaining every single pound of it back because of binge eating. I'm seriously so mad right now... How do I stop this?
A. I had this problem to some extent; and what helped me was to just remember how guilty and gross i felt after binging. However, you can't completely restrict yourself from the junk food, especially with it being so close to you. If you don't let yourself eat it, you'll eventually just give in and when you do you'll eat everything. If you allow yourself a tiny bit of sweets every week or so, you won't feel the urge to binge on it. Hope i helped!
