helpless, hurt and can not express how I feel - mostly about my family.

    I feel like I am a looser at times,I do so good and then I let the emotional eating come into play! I have done this for 31 years now and I don't know how to stop it!! I am glad we have a place to come too for this!!

    I can so relate to you. I've been an emotional eater I believe my whole life. Even as a child I remember sneaking food to eat when no one was around.

    I hear that! (although in my case, it's my elderly grandmother.) well, that and a 35 year old man who doesn't want to do **** for himself either. HE caused me to succumb to my lack of will and I ate this morning something I haven't touched in over a YEAR. so disgusted with myself for ALLOWING someone to control my emotions and habits like that.

    I can't even imagine what you going through taking care of elderly parents. I am a Hospice volunteer and I see families exhausted from the care because it is a 24/7 job. I wish you the best.

    I have many health issues that prevent me from being active. On top of that my marriage is on and off. Both of these things make me feel like a failure. So like all of you I eat my emotions. Help
