Want to stuff my face

[delfinajones 1]

I'm in the middle of a stressful family situation and I want to stuff my face with food. It's so obvious I am a food addict.

I am trying to hold on--I've had 3 fills now but I can still do it. I can still stuff my face.:w00t:

Delfina,

Hang in there! If you're reaching for sweets, choose something sugar free...at least then the damage isn't as great. If you must eat, choose low carb options...again, the damage will not be as great.

I know the tendency is to reach for those 'comfort carbs' but remember, it will be a bit like getting ticked at the city because your property taxes are high and burning down your house in retaliation.

The other thing I find helpful is meditation. Nothing more than finding a quiet spot (or stick on some noise cancelling headphones with some soothing music), put on some soothing music and concentrate on relaxing. There are some spots on the web that talk about meditation for destressing. I find it helps a lot.

Thank you- I think I am going to try and distract myself by doing research at the library. No food there. I already ate some cookies.Just not feeling good. But thanks.
