    I'm a user of food too. Recently I heard Bob Greene on Oprah (I'm an Oprah fan) make a comment something like this that really spoke to me--"you are never going to beat this problem. This is a problem that you have always had--and you will probably have it for the rest of your life. Your results are simply about how you manage that problem." This makes SO much sense to me--I'm always going to battle my emotions and desire to use food to placate what ever my need is at the time. This problem is never going to go away for me. So if I can learn some skills and tools to manage this problem, perhaps that's where I should focus my energy. Here's the link to the video in case you are interested--good luck! MFP seems to have a lot to offer--lots of great people.
