  • Hi gang. 51 and been on and off this site for 4 years or so. I do best when I stay on track and log... looking to connect with others and help keep me accountable. Wish I didn't love food so much. Been battling weight for pretty well all of my adult life.

  • Yes, I can relate to stress and wanting to eat to help feel better - I think this is a pattern for many of us. Sometimes, the best thing is to "fess up like you just did and move on!! Try not to let a bad day turn into a bad week. You can do it!! Take care and start again tomorrow!!
