Nah, I’d just eat it on the way home and save the hiding of it! I’ve never been a secret eater…just an eater!

Julie – I’m glad too, that my kids won’t have memories of me hoarding food, hiding food, and overeating all the time!

Growing up, my Mom was slim, and didn’t have issues with food. I got those all on my own!

Thanks for the great comment.

I like the drawer in the fridge just for you. I’ll have to keep that one in mind. Thanks for the comment, and I really do want to try a spring roll!

Thanks for the compliment. I had to laugh at the way you described the fact that now it’s the healthy food your family can’t touch!

Much better than the other way around!

The bank statement! LOL! I did the same thing, ate when no one was looking. I’m glad you too broke that habit. Loved your blog!

Hmmm, my mom did this. We (or at least, I) was not supposed to find the stash of chips, cookies, etc. I did, of course, and ate and ate. Everything I ever ate once I got chubby was commented on, criticized. I used to get up after everyone went to bed, eat french fries, fried chicken, all sorts of crap. It’s a wonder I’ve managed to have a somewhat healthy relationship with food at all, at this point. According to what I understand now, she did everything wrong. I’m glad you got your food issues worked out before your kids got old enough to understand.

I did the same thing “before” and I do it now with the food I rely on – my yogurt (Fage), cereal, some fruit, etc. I do have similar types of food on hand for my family, but there is a drawer in the fridge that is off limits to everyone but me.

Diane, great post, can totally relate like everyone else. Funny thing is now other foods are “off limits” to my family–don’t touch my Fage, Knudsen 2% cottage cheese, protein shakes, or my salads!! I’m happy to provide my family with lots of fresh healthy food, but I get very picky now if they eat my stuff–a long way away from hiding my cookies and chocolate so no one else would find it!

ah, I didn’t hide food, I hid the bank statement. I ate all of my food out of the house. I would eat dinner just like everyone else, then go down to whatever my food of the month choice was and eat some more. Everyone always wondered why I was so fat, and wondered why we never had any more money to do things with. Sad. It’s like a drug. I don’t do that anymore.

Mary – For me, as I was teaching my classes, I was always surprised that my secrets weren’t my own, but were shared by a good number of the women in my class.
