Food addiction

desperatemom

Okay...so I had a major reality check today. I've been catching myself getting angry w/ my husband over FOOD. This is totally devestating to me. I realized that I find food as my only comfort, and therefor I am entitled to food and as much as I please. I feel like I am not nearly as strong as I used to be. I am having so much trouble trying to resist these urges to eat. We are in the process of a big move and money has been really, really tight...with all this going on, I just keep turning to food. I need something, a way to ween myself away from food. I have a major goal for myself , to go down a size by the end of the summer. I am not at a healthy weight and I know that I am not, at all, healthy right now. Can someone PLEASE HELP??


~~~Desperate and determined.

My only suggestion would be to turn to something new to manage the stress. Exercise is a great choice. Food doesn't seem to be working since it just causes more stress and more tension with your husband. You can only take it one minute at a time. Don't focus on the next couple weeks or months or years. Just focus on the next TIME you want to eat for stress relief.
