Easter Candy confession

I ate it. All of it. 3 kids worth of Easter candy, gone in 2 days and they may have gotten one or two pieces. I've snuck from 127 (my lowest), to 130-131 (my "usual") to 136 (post-Easter candy binge). My size 4s are snug, my size 6s fit like my 4s did. I dont care what size I am, but I've used that as a kind of guideline.... On the plus side, I FINALLY made an appointment with my PMD to get a referral to see a therapist to FINALLY deal with my food addictions once and for all. Wish I'd done it sooner, but better late than never, and better now than when I gain all my weight back, right??? I hope I am, but someone please tell me I'm not alone??? Rebecca

Hey Rebecca I too hit the Easter Candy hard. But I took it from my nephew who I babysit for. I use to dump on sugar but not lately. My lowest was 149 I am at 157. I feel like I am in control but then all of a sudden its there and I eat it. Hoping to get sick. So you are not alone. Tomorrow we are having a health fair. I hope to talk to the psychologist in one of the open sesions. I have alot going on with my dad. I really thought I wasn't a person who ate out of depression but I know I am. Good luck. Don't beat yourself up. Just think its not a huge amount of weight like before. We are not hopeless. We can fix this before it gets out of control. Jane

Girl, you are definitely not alone. Conquering a food addiction, like any other addiction, is going to be a life-long battle for us. Recognizing that and taking steps as soon as you realize you've "fallen off the wagon," so to speak, is so very important. So I applaud you for posting about your experience, and for seeking help to work on dealing with your food addiction. Good luck for continuing success on your journey! Kellie
