And I'll tell ya this much, although, like yourself, I have developed an understanding of the how, when, and whys of emotional eating it is still a life long journey!!<br/>Cheers!

I am a total emotional eater - right now I am really struggling with losing about 25 pounds. I have been holding at about 162 for over a year. I need to drop these last 25 because I REALLY want to have another baby but I must start a new pregnancy at a healthy weight. One would think that having another child would be a great motivator but OMG - I cannot stop eating crap and making excuses. I eat whenever I can, basically, but usually it is due to stress (often caused by my toddler - almost 2 and driving me mad) or anger, but not hunger. I can totally relate to that grabby feeling we get when we are seeking to fill an emotional void and instead we inhale animal crackers or goldfish. You are a great inspiration, however - and I loved your pictures of the wheat tortilla pinwheels the other day. I keep thinking about making those - maybe I will get off my butt and do it one of these days. Thanks for your blog. Hi – long-time lurker, first time commenter.

So I went with the teasers. It's not cool when you see your recipes splattered all over the web without your permission. Glad to see I’m not the only one.

I love to cook and I love to celebrate with food. And then with the "all or nothing" approach I usually tend to have toward everything, it just overcomplicates things. As soon as I eat even one bad thing, boom I say what the hell, I'll just really be bad if I'm going to be bad. I'm working on changing this. and its definitely helping to read people who have been successful like you!<br/><br/>PS - could you PLEASE change your blog so that it cann be viewed through Google Reader in its entirety? I only see a teaser section then have to click. Please. I am definitely the first one. I love to cook and I love to celebrate with food.

I was the first, but I have found through my journey that I usually ate when I was bored. When I am stressed, I usually do not eat. Since starting WW this time, I have really learned to listen to my body and only eat when I am hungry. So, I guess right now I am the second.<br/><br/>And don't apologize for not posting! Heck, we all know you have a lot going on...and if you skip a couple of days, it's ok. We know you'll be back :) I have/am both.

I no longer want to overeat when I'm hungry or sad - am working on the "boredom" and "tired" triggers. At least now I'm aware of how I'm feeling when I eat and can choose another path - getting out of the house, calling a friend, exercising, going to bed. I'm seeing progress - there are times I'm so wrapped up in an activity that I actually forget to eat until my smomach makes a loud grumble! Then I realize, "Oh, I guess I should eat something right now!"

Even at work when I open my carrots I don't just eat a few and save them for later. I'm always surprised when I reach in the container or bag and it's EMPTY!! How did that happen?
