    I find that anytime I am under stress I reach for food. I think it is because it seems to be such a comfort and soothes the stress. I know it is easier to avoid this if I get out of the house and away from food awhile...a walk, reading a book, just anything to get away from temptation. Hang strong:smile:

    Hi, I too am an emotional eater, I have recently been prescribed with prozac for depression and anxiety, before this I was raiding the fridge,cupboards even the baking ingredients for something sweet! I have before I joined here been put on the waiting list for a gastric band fitting, I have type 2 diabetes and heart disease, so the band is really offered to me to practically save my life as I am only 59 years old and lost my mum to heart disease and a stroke at the early age of 63. I need help now to get some more of this horrid fat off, and maybe then I won't have to have the operation to have the band fitted. I have found this site quite by accident so let's see how I go!
