I cant help with overeating. But if you become an avid road cyclist you will never have a weight problem again.
And eventually you will need to over eat just to keep your body fat from getting too low.
Even on flat land, i can burn 1,000 calories per hour on a bike, and on a real bike outside the gym, 1hr feels like 20min.
Its a bit of a proccess, but its unbeatable for effortless weightloss, and fitness, you can go anywhere on a bike.
Its best to spend between 1,000-1,600 US dollars and get a professional bike fit. Then your done, thats it, you have a bike for life. Get aluminum frame, carbon snaps in a crash. Do research, choose carefully, take your time.
Its better to slowly become a bit of an athlete, then a bit of a fitness model, it gives you more options, its easier, more fun, and it has way more year round lean potential. Olympic athletes eat up to 10,000 calories a day just to support themselves in peak training season, a 280lb IFBB pro body builder will typically be eating 1,600-2,500 calories per day in a cutting season. Then they arnet athletic enough to keep weight off when their appetite kicks in. I know your an engineer, but think about what life you'd rather have if you werent an engineer.
As for diet, my best advice is not to settle on anything you havent researched extensively.
I purged only once in my life, because i drank poision, but im also a fully fledged binge eater. I realized there had to be a much better way for people who binge eat to control their weight, i didnt know that thought would eventually turn me into an athlete with a full time job.
