VEGETARIAN - needing to loose some weight, but i just cant stop binge eating right after dinner!?

I am not even thaat hungry but once i have dinner i cant stop eating.. i dont eat really healthy during the day but not once i get home. what can i do to stop bingeing??? and what veg. foods will fill me and stop craving the breads/desserts all the time!?

I agree with the first answer to a degree.
It may just be your body craving certain nutrients which you haven't taken in. Try supplementing a multivitamin, aimed at vegetarians and see if this problem still exists. Also, you may just not being taking in your required caloric intake of the day. Another thing to think of is a major component of weightloss is exercise, diet alone won't do much of anything.

    Craving carbs means you aren't getting enough protein in your diet. It can also mean that you aren't getting enough b12. Make sure you are all getting all three servings of protein each day. Beans, lentils, tofu, soy protein, and nuts should all help you meet your protein needs. There are also veggie protein shakes! Feel better!

    More protein! Peanut butter is you friend. High protein high carb high fat. One tablespoon gets you full.

    I understand you. Try eating a toasted bagel with peanut butter for breakfast. If you eat eggs, then make a fruit smoothie with a couple of raw eggs thrown in. Eat more almonds as a snack when you are not at home. They fit nicely in a pocket.

    sounds to me you just need some self control.

    there is a 70% chance you are actually dehydrated.

    you need iron in your diet to get energy. iron can be well absorbed with vitamin C…

    just watch that you don't eat too much fiber otherwise in the long run you will get ingestion, bloating and bad gas
