    Good luck Leah. Congrats on taking those first steps. How are you when it comes to exercising? Perhaps you can try going for a walk/ jog or doing some other exercise when you feel bored, lonely, or for any other reason you feel hungry for emotional reasons, without really being hungry. Just a suggestion that seems to work for me, although I still overindulge when it comes to food and I'm trying to be healthier!
