i belonged to OA for a few years and lost weight. once you stop going and the support is not replaced it comes back on. I am a stress eater as well as a money spender. money could be a problem but i return what i bought. you can not return calories. I suffur from chronic pain and decided to come off all the narcotics the dr had me on. not surprising I gained 20+ lbs. anyone addicted to food come be my new friend. susan

I'm addicted to food, and I'm also a spender. And I've definitely noticed a correlation between the two. When I spend what I shouldn't, I eat more. it's like when one aspect of my life gets out of the control the other most certainly will follow suit. Currently trying to fix BOTH my problems!

I'm an emotional eater--I eat when I am bored, in a bad mood, tired, and when relaxing. I've gained 35 pounds in the past 9 months and I've got to make a change! I need others to keep me accountable with my eating and for ME to be honest with my food logging. No excuses this time! I am tired of saying to myself "I'll start eating better tomorrow"...!

I eat to deal with the turmoil of my life, while it seems to spin out of control so does my weight and eating. I feel that i have this big emotional cupboard that's locked with the consumption of food. then I feel trapped in this body that doesn't match how i feel inside, how does my brain not process the weight gain. All my life I have yoyo'd to these extreme eating habits. I just want my outsides to match my inside and find a little peace.
