Wow, I am so glad you posted this. I have struggled so much this week with emotional eating, but in reality I’ve actually been struggling for about a year now with this problem. I’ve been trying for over a year to lose weight and have lost with no success because of my emotional eating issues. I truly believe that is the only thing holding me back.

I found it interesting that you said, “you will not lose weight until you value yourself more.” I identify so much with that. I keep thinking it doesn’t matter how much I work out, I will never lose weight if I don’t stop using food for comfort or treating my body like a garbage can.

I’m so glad I found this post. Thank you. I will definitely go check out those articles.

I’m so sorry about your dad, Roni. Even though you’re not close to him, I understand it still affects you!

This post is awesome. I’ve been going through a lot of core hurt eating lately because I’m not focusing on my value… I’m focusing on what I lack. Thanks for making it all make sense.

My dad died when I was 4 and I grew up with a mother who never stopped grieving. I never put this together. I was her eating buddy, someone to accompany her on eating binges. I finally lost weight after the birth of my first son (core value) and then my husband and I hit a rough patch right after I got pregnant last summer and I (i’m doing) the binge eating thing and haven’t stopped. I didn’t come to your site today for some deep therapy but WOW. Haha, who knew?!
Thanks for the insight, it was a powerful article and I really loved your post. You can get through this, you’re stronger than you know.

It’s a little disturbing how much I can relate to the “you will not lose weight until you value yourself more.” I’ve struggled with my self-worth a lot over the past year or so, and control over my weight definitely suffered. Getting back on track (emotionally) is hard.. but I’m so close I can taste it.

It seems as though life is “piling it on” for you. But it’s obvious you’re going to come out of it stronger. You have all the tools in place, and all the knowledge. All the best with your current situation, and thank you for sharing.
