How To Treat Increased Appetite That Might Lead To Weight Gain?

Hello doctor Samuel , I wanted to ask you a question that nobody in my country probably wont know how to answer since theres nobody that takes care for fitness and diets. Well I lived in america for a year and i gained like 10 kg , and now that I m back home i lost those kg, but I still have a big apetite and I m so afraid I will be gaining weight.It is very bad because I m always thinking about food and that I should not eat ,and keep with my strict diet that I ve been keeping since 3 months .Please help , its becoming very bad habit in my brain to think so much about food ,and then sometimes eat like crazy ! thank you very much , hope you reply soon.

Hi thanks for using HCM
Firstly i would like to tell you that stop worrying about weight gain coz it will tend to gain weight. As you have told that you have already lost 3 kgs which is a very good sign , all you need to do is think positive. Reduce the high calorie food from your menu. Eat in the shape of a pyramid, have lot and lots of water which will keep your skin healthy. Eat slowly and in small portions. Short frequent meals is your key to good health. Try cutting down on carbohydrates and fats . You will see the results in 1 week.
