hi peeps.
first post not sure what to say or how much i should say. I am struggling with bad eating habbits and have suffered eating problems since I was about 11. I have had various eating disorders,ranging from restricting my intake, to overeating,to binge eating disorder.
I know that I am an emotional eater and a binge eater right now. I use food to cope to get through each day, and the thought of giving that up is terrifing. I do want and need to loose weight and at the mo I am constantly gaining weight. Denying myself food however i know causes mega binges, BUT on the other hand im not going to loose weight unless i "diet". I am just struggling between either tring to let mself eat what I fancy, or focusing on actually loosing weight which i need to do, it feels like a no win situation, as by" dieting" is how i have goten overweight in the first place!
one thing tho i really want to tackle is to stop eating for emotional reasons, but allowing myself the taste of food if I want it. Its a right battle. Anyway I am sure I can have some good discusions on here about it all and that I can relate to others, thanks for reading,
