It's so refreshing to read this thread. I'm a food addict. I've even tried speaking friends about it but they just say ' No you're not you just like your food!!' It's as if I'm trying to make an excuse for my eating habits.
They don't see me ordering family sized meal deals from Dominoes and eating the lot on my own in secret until I feel sick though. All's because I was feeling lonely and bored.
There's the other group of people too. The type who just say 'just go for a run' when you are saying you're having a fat day. If it was as easy as that I'd be a skinny minnie already. They wouldn't tell an anorexic just to get a burger down them!!!
People's relationships with food is so complex. I'm determined to get a grip on it and move away from the 'feast or famine' mindset I seem to have which follows on from binge then guilt.

The fact that you can see how complex your relationship with food is is the first step to controlling your eating and being able to use the SW plan or any other weight loss plan successfully.
All our lives food is used as a reward, food becomes FOOD with capital letters and takes on a special significance so it is no wonder some of us have a problem with it.
Special occasions are celebrated with FOOD. FOOD becomes the trophy and at the same time the enemy.
You are addressing your problem by recognising it. For me it is no different than an addiction to drink or drugs and once we have learnt to eat within the boundaries of what is correct for ourselves on a personal level we can never go back. It is a lifetimes thing. It is no different to an alcoholic taking that first drink after having abstained for years..........we can not do it.
The hard part is not losing the weight. Te hard part is maintaining the loss and these pages are the ideal pace to be for that.
I wish you luck,

Being on this diet is like being on a wagon that goes at speed then slows down, but it may even stop or go in reverse for a short time, so dont get off the wagon! If you get off, get thrown off, or lose your place, run after it! If that doesn't work, get the next immediate wagon. Fight to stay on the wagon it will take you to your destination
