Confession: I officially weigh more than I ever have before, excluding pregnancy. As you can imagine, this is doing a number on my self esteem.
Why do I eat so much?
- I eat when I'm bored
- I eat when I feel sad and depressed
- I eat when I feel like celebrating
- I binge eat but don't know why
- When I have a bad meal at the start of the day, I say "screw it" and eat more and more
- I eat when I'm craving something
- I eat when other people are eating around me
I have come to the realization that I'm probably addicted to food, and could really use some suggestions of resources, if anyone has any.
In the meantime...I'll just keep floundering...and trying to improve...
I am in your same boat except I weighed 176 when nine months pregnant and hover around 167-170 now so not so good. lol I think there are probably counselors that deal with eating disorders that you might be able to go to. I'm thinking about going to a therapist once I have the time. You can do a google search for some in your area. Make sure they have binge eating disorder or just eating disorders listed in their profile. Hope you are able to find a solution to help you. And if you do, please share cause I am all ears! :)
