Comments(2) I didn’t think a blog would help with my eating problems but I’m finding it’s a great outlet. I may be complaining and griping on this site more often. 
Haven’t eaten yet today. Worried about a binge incident. I’m going to try and be smart about it. keep to my portions and distract, distract, distract.
Comments(1) I tend to eat emotionally. I’m dealing with the death of my second mom last week. Interred on Friday. I’ve been shoveling carbs since. Dad’s Alzheimer’s is getting worse and mom’s terminal illness is progressing rapidly. She was complaining about not being able to breath the last two nights. I know I moved back home to help them and to take care of mom until the end but it’s definitely taking a toll on me.
I stopped using sugar and drinking sodas. I drink sugar free drinks sparingly and take in mostly water. I’m terrified of diabetes. I’ve seen my mom struggle with it all her life and I don’t want to go down that path.
This is not a poor me post. I chose to come back and I chose to take care of my folks. I just need to NOT eat when my emotions are in turmoil. I know it’s not a quick fix. Years of eating emotionally can’t be wiped out in a day or two.
