I still don't consider myself an emotionally healthy person, but I tolerate emotions, no longer eat to numb them. Right, NOT EASY! I still occasionally eat from boredom, or deliberately overeat, but it's not common and not usually anything heavy enough to cause a gain. .-= julie´s last blog ..<a href="http://justjuliebean.wordpress.com/2009/12/02/the-unpopular-solution/" rel="nofollow">the unpopular solution</a> =-.

The results so far have been interesting and enlightening. I now know that not only am I slimming and getting healthier, but I am also evolving in an emotional, mental and spiritual way.

It's hard to be honest with yourself as to why you're eating. It's hard to get down and dirty with the emotions..but you have to. sidenote: you need to write a book. .-= Michelle@Eatingjourney´s last blog ..<a href="http://eatingjourney.com/2009/12/03/coconut-girls/" rel="nofollow">Coconut Girls</a> =-.

I think that it is so wonderful though, that you had one bad week, and then stopped before things got really out of control for you. That is a definite sign that you are making a change in your life, not just for the immediate weight loss, but forever. I was so sorry to hear about your break-up.

Just kidding! I know that my overeating was about 96% emotional. It was something I would have denied for years though. Take care, Diane I have a finished book – do you know any publishers?

I think I may have to write about them! :) You are doing great, and I am so happy for you. You have done a wonderful job in really figuring out what is working and not working for you, and then just doing it. You bring up some really good points Hilary.
