When I started boxing again, I trained my ass off and got from 205lbs. to 175lbs. I get down to 170 right before a fight but I gain back 5 to 10lbs after the fight which leaves me at 175 to 180lbs. I want to get down to 155 to 160lbs. I bust my ass when I train but my eating habits are terrible. If I can't sleep at night I eat and when I reward myself with a little bit of fast food I go overboard. I spend money on fat burners but they don't do enough. Please, can somebody on BS tell me what I can do? Is there a way to maybe trick the mind or body into eating less or eating right all the time?

Every time you start eating crap, ask yourself
"How bad do you want to box?"
Once you answer that question, you'll drop the junk and head for the nearest fruit stand.

just like the above guy said, give yourself a mantra.
not a day goes by where i dont crave a plate of chicken fingers, a pack of cigarettes, and a 40. but i just ask myself, "two minutes of pleasure, or a lifetime of payoff?" and usually put it out of my mind.
also, drinking ridiculous amounts of water will curb your appetite. i drink like 8-10 glasses with every meal.

Even the George Foreman grill won't save you alone. Just re-stock your food supplies with lots of healthy stuff and stick to a great diet. Dedication is important so you should view your diet as just as important as your training regime.
Good luck.

Mostly it has to do with motivation. Eating is a natural impulse. Eat things that maintain a steady blood sugar, like multiple grains and a balance of fat, carbs, and proteins. The worst thing about boxing is making a weight. Also, one should know his body fat percentage. Anything below 5% is lean. O% will lose you the fight, as you will have no energy reserves. Ask Joe Manley....

lol, its nice being the resident massive weight loss expert.
it can be hard to keep on a diet, especially a strict one, once the results arent showing. i mean, when you step on the scale losing a half pound a day, its fun, and you start to like being on a diet. but sometimes you hit plateaus, and youll be bustin your ass and seeing nothing.
personally, i dont think youll run into that problem. it sounds like you have a really good workout regime, and that coupled with a good diet will have you shedding pounds like they were pubes.

Take cellmass after every workout and use thermogain daily. This is a cheaters approach but the cellmass is great for muscle recovery and the thermogain will definately cause your fat to go down a lot and not affect your muscles. I mean by that, break them down or anything.
This should work quite good for you. It is pricy.
