Eating my emotions

[@KaiPrice-u2u]

I'm glad I don't have all of the problems you have, but yeah, I have this one too. I definitely overeat, and sometimes it's a response to emotion, but for me that one is the least of my concern. I overeat from anxiety, it's terrible. If I overeat from emotion, I pretty much allow it as a reward for feeling something. You know? Oh, here's something that sure didn't help when I was growing up: I hated wasting food, and my brilliant chef of a mother felt an empty plate meant she didn't make enough food. Binging, yes, sometimes I binge. Sometimes I'm distracted and don't eat at all. But I weigh 395 lbs, so guess which of those two usually wins. However, I'm lucky I'm sure I would never purge.
