I think there is no combination that will always work, but I think protein plus fiber are huge. Omelet with a decent chunk of veggies, or just coffee and a protein drink (no sugar added). I’d try it for 2 weeks to let your body adjust – if you’re used to eating a lot in the morning, you will be hungry for awhile.

I tend to eat more in the morning, then slack off in the afternoon, but I’ve found that what helps me is a combination of protein and fiber. That seems to hit my routine pretty well.

You are describing me, and I am a compulsive overeater, which is very much like an alcoholic but with food. I’ve been where you are, and now have been losing weight since May, by counting calories (I keep up with it on a free website) and attending OA meetings in my area (which are free). I’m down 19 lbs, with many many more to go. I never ate breakfast either, but figured out if I had some protein and complex carb for breakfast, I was less hungry at lunch.

I am exactly the same way. I love to eat (too much!) The best thing that works for me is to plan my entire day’s eating. If I know exactly what I’m going to eat all day, and promise myself I will stick to that plan, I can make it. Allowing myself to question things and make decisions as the day goes on leads to very bad decisions
