Here's a journaling idea some might find helpful it really makes you stop and think!:tongue: ...:heart:

Food: The Ultimate Weapon of Self-Destruction

Grab a notebook or create your own journal

Now look back for your first memory of your comfort food. Is it a certain food or any food?

What is your favorite food when you need comforting?

Now can you look back in your past to figure out why you love it so much?

Write down your first memory of using food to comfort yourself and what was happening to you and how you felt at the time.

Just write as fast and as hard as you can.
The writing will help you to get it out.
Don't allow your perfectionism to get you hung up on grammar, punctuation or spelling – just write! You are the only one who is going to read this. :flowerforyou:

    I know it's hard to stop snacking or diving right into that comfort food. I feel the same way since i had my baby. Good luck and just keep trying. I know it will get easier the further you go. try giving the baby to a friend or leaving the baby with your Fiance and going for a walk even if it's for five minutes. that was you take some of the bordum out and still get a nice walk in. :) Good luck. :):flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
