Marskey, Are you happy in your marriage..... The first 3 years are usually the roller-coaster years....But they get better trust me....... I have been married nine and it took over 3 years to grow comfortable in it......and just this year my husband has turned completely around and now makes me feel like a queen....in those three years I ate alot....I am a stress eater......(notice i said I AM)...I don't think it is binging but I usually raid the fridge 4 or 5 times for snacks through the course of the afternoon if I lose control....It is even worse when i am lonly or sad...then i just eat and eat.......When the kids send me over the edge it is back to the fridge for me.... The way I have learned to control it is....I don't watch TV....that is usually when I eat the most.....i have tried to set meal times as well as snack times throughouot the day for myself....This way when I feel the need to eat I look at the clock and say to myself....It is only such and such time until snack time...you can do it.....And usually I have the will power to wait the extra 30 min. or so.....It wasn't easy but it has helped me a lot........Plus I set my self a limit....or else I eat until I am too full and then I feel sick....Like I tell myelf only one bowl of Chips and cheese and maybe an apple or grapes....I try to eat until I am satisfied not full....Plus I am always hungry right before bed...That is usually when my husband (bless his heart) talks me into MCdonalds (Which isnt hard to do).....Then the chips come out and you gotta have chocolate after the salt...and on and on.....So i try to stay away from Eating before bed because by the end of the day I no longer have the will power to say no.......And that's what does it......Saying NO...Letting your mind control your actions instead of your stomach......But I admit....saying it is a lot easier then doing it.....It 's still a day to day struggle with me....Some days I win and others I lose..... i hope this helps you a little... I will be praying for you. God Bless!!! ↑ |

No matter what......Remember You are never alone...... If it helps.....Their is always someone who has a problem worse then yours......If you focus on theirs...Yours seems better by comparison.. Plus you see your own problem in a different light... That has helped me through a lot.. God Bless!!!! ↑ |
