Emotional Eating - please suggest other ways we can comfort ourselves!
For me, there is nothing more soothing, calming, and cozy than having a lot of tasty food. I usually go to the local Japanese restaurant and get a drink, ice cream, a side or 2, and 2 main dishes when I am feeling lonely. I don't have friends or family, and I don't know how else to feel good other than eating anything I…

How can I tell the bully in my brain to scram?
Every night I lay in bed and drift off to thoughts of bouncing out of bed, high-impact exercise, a cool down with my best dog buddy, shower & off to kick the day in the butt. But, in reality, I get out of bed late, brush my teeth, feed my best dog buddy and I am deflated. I get on the scale, no loss. I have a cup of coffee…

Does anyone else feel like they keep getting in their own way?
Lately I’ve been feeling like I’m getting in my own way of my weight gain goals. When I’m stressed out I tend to either eat a lot less or eat all the junk food and nothing healthy. Either option leaves me feeling physically ill, which in turn stresses me out more and it ends up being a vicious cycle to the point where it…

Exercise means I can eat more right?
I sabotage my own hard work. I now go to the gym every morning even when I am away on business which believe me is s=tough some days especially if I have early meetings. When I finish in the gym and stop the inevitable sweating post shower I feel really good. So good in fact that I convince myself that I don't have to pay…

Back on the horse…
Lifelong struggle with my weight. No support from hubby (who can eat anything and not gain weight) who thinks if I just eat salads for every meal, how can I not lose weight? I’ve done vegetarian, prescription medication, veganIsm, keto and low fat diets. I am open for new friends and to be a friend to others that struggle.

I am DONE!!
This is me about 12 years ago. I can see so much more self-confidence and self-reliance in my eyes. I miss that. Physical and mental health problems, nursing my Mother through dementia and grieving her death, along with comfort eating, have been the contributors to me gaining well over 70lbs since this photo was taken. I…
