Question? Growing up I had some issues with my mother as far as communicating and not knowing much about the divorce. With my father, I was a daddy's girl, but I never really felt like I was good enough. Could those issues be effecting my eating habits now that I am older?

I would say yes. For those of us that eat for comfort, at the time, we may not know how we feel, or even the reason I we are eating (I hope I'm not projecting). I have found after a binge... Always after, "Oh that was the issue." I have unresolvable feelings dating 17 years ago.......Some of us eat as an escape.........0

Absolutely, I'm dealing with similar issues. I've allowed food to comfort me and now I'm having to break bad eating habits I've developed over the years. I agree with the post above, it's an escape.0
