Hi eveyone! My name is Julianne, and I have been an emotional eater all of my life. My earliest memories are of standing by the sweet table at weddings, and eating until I was about to bust!
My Dad used to tell me that he made my baby formula from Kayro syrup and Carnation condensed milk... so I got the sugar bug from birth! >:)
I am working hard to kill the instinct to eat-until-I-burst... binging at night, and sitting for hours.

    Hi Julianne - I understand the "eat until I burst" part. But good grief - baby formula from condensed milk and Karo syrup? Yikes. I cannot imagine that.

    I know that the idea of killing an instinct is attractive and I wish I could do that, too, but I've come to realize that the best I can do is live with myself, with plenty of compassion for my mistakes, and knowing that I can get back to my eating plan. I hope you can feel the same. Some days it's just five minutes at a time!

    Laura
