Long simple thoughts

It has been a hard week, my father in law past away Friday morning. Thursday night the ugly head of emotional eatting took hold of me, I ate chips and dip, pizza, carbs, and LOL a protein bar. The entire house was filled with junk food, nothing good for you. I was not in the least bit hungry just ate to eat and to stay awake. It was hard to keep from eatting.... His passing was very peaceful and my sister in law and I were with him. Since then I have not had the urge to eat. I have to force myself to drink my water, and remind myself to eat something. I know I didn't get my protein in for the past two days, I upped my vitamins cause I know I am not eatting just to much going on. When I do eat it seems to get stuck and yesterday I ate and got the hiccups for about 4 hours- almost every 15 seconds. They finally went away when I went to bed. Any ideas why that would happen? Sorry this is so long, just had to write I guess. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. Their Mother died when they were little kids so there Dad raised them and they are all taking this very hard. Thanks!

I am sending a prayer up for your in laws and your family. Keep the faith. Kathleen G from Missouri

praying for your family that you will feel peace & love & rem him in your hearts ,God Bless Becky

Hi Jenni, First of all, you don't need to apologize for sharing your thoughts here, long or not . Yikes, lots of emotional carbs! But you did it and and shouldn't dwell on it. Maybe next time you find yourself eating/binging like that, find some other way to deal with the emotional stress rather than eating. As far as your hiccups, do you think you were maybe eating faster than you should? I know I did the other day and I got the hiccups. It's the first time I had them since my surgery and it was painful but they lasted 4 hours . And I tried drinking water while I had them but it came right back up. Like something was stuck in there. Not pleasant at all. This is a stressful time of the year anyway but to lose loved ones at this time is even harder on the families. My brother-in-law just passed away two days ago. Your family will be in my thoughts.
