self revalation

I have read a bunch of posts here about emotional eating and binges brought
on from emotional upset. I knew I was not a binger but couldn't really
think of a time I had eaten emotionally from an upset that was not a binge.
This week I think I found a home for my foster kitten. We have had him
since may and he is such a wonderful creature I was beginning to look into
finding an organization that could use him for a service animal. A man
called me that is perfect and I am more attached to this little guy than I
thought. I will of course do what is best for the cat. Where this relates
to this group is that I realized that instead of emotionally eating I do
just the opposite. I completely lose any inclination to eat at all. This I
further realized is a fit with my patter of eating to little for long
periods of time. Lee, wondering what if anything, others have realized
about their eating patterns that is surprising to them.

I find that when some horrible thing is happening I get almost nauseated
from the stress, and then a few days later, I want to eat the world. So I
watch out for the aftermath now.

I had a cat for six months, and then my landlord made me get rid of her.
I thought I could get away w/ it since other ppl in the building are.
I was so sad when I came home and she's not here anymore. I missed her a
lot that first week. Now I'm getting a little more used to it, but I
still miss her. One of my friends took her though so I can visit, but I
think that'll be hard. Good Job with finding alternatives to emotional
eating!!! I found that when I follow the program I'm eating healthier
and my cravings and urges to emotionally eat are gone. Even though I've
only been on the program a couple weeks my cravings for sugary stuff are
gone! I find that if I eliminate most of the sweets from my diet it
takes care of those urges, most of the time anyways.

Hi, Lee, I found that I binge when I went to a certain WW meeting! I can't
think why this should be. The woman who leads is a wonderful, sweet person
but when I leave that meeting, I spend the next two days eating and eating.
I finally had to find a different meeting and now, I seem to be more in
control and on program. It came as a surprise when I went over my journals
and realized this.

Gosh, I do envy you, Lee ;-D I know that can be worse than overeating, but I
still can't help being green with envy ;-D

I never thought of that but it sure is something to consider.

I think not knowing what will happen to him is the hardest part. I think
you not having cravings is a huge NSV, Lee

That is odd but I am glad you figured it out. I think things like this are
one of the reasons that it is fine to lose slow. The more we learn about
ourselves the better chance we have of staying at goal, Lee

It seems that it is a better thing. Now that I know my metabolism is
screwed up from not eating enough on too many crash diets and now with this
revelation I can try and make sure I eat even when upset. I decided that I
would just watch the clock and every two hours even if it is just a slice of
cheese or glass of milk, Lee, grateful she does not binge
