Try eating starch plant foods they fill you up give you a lot of energy and are low calories people use them to lose weight. They are also good for you.
Keep in mind that doing power meditations including RTRs can make you hungry afterwards or if you've been doing it for awhile, it can even be a sign that you're doing it right...HailVictory88 said:Does anyone know of a reliable, safe way to suppress appetite? A spiritual method, mental method, herb, etc. I am overweight and I want to lose weight. I really dislike exercising (although I am open to doing some of it) and my diet is bad, I'm in the process of changing that though.
I'm good about controlling my eating throughout the day but I tend to get really hungry in the evening and night. I often have trouble falling asleep so I'll eat instead. I overeat in the evenings a lot and it makes me tired. I have low energy levels and I'm hoping that improving diet and losing weight will help that, but I don't want to lose even more of it due to hunger. I also don't want hunger to interfere with doing RTRs. Anyone have any advice?
Lydia said:Eat more during the day, and less at night. The metabolism is higher during the day, you will note that people who eat a hearty breakfast are thinner than people who don't eat anything for breakfast. You mentioned you control your appetite during the day and binge at night, this alone could be your problem. I eat often and never gain weight, simply because I am conditioned to eat at proper times and proper amounts. I am always full after eating breakfast, lunch, and supper. My mother on the other hand, skips breakfast in the false belief she will loose weight that way, tries to suppress her appetite for the rest of the day, and she has always been a bit overweight.
Everybody else I have observed who is the same as either her or I, has the exact same results.
