I just was popping in too. Missing my "cities" friends.
Just had to say...

I u!

I wish I was closer to my true home. It is hard making this place my home.

Sandie:

It was great to see a post from you! I am not surprised that it was an important message to all of us here to pay attention to what drove us to obesity. You continue to inspire.

Thanks,

RP

Way back in 1980 or 1981, when the movie Stripes came out, there was a scene in the barracks when everyone was introducing themselves by giving their name and a explaining a little bit about themselves. John Candy's character said, "I'm Dewey Oxenburger and my therapist says that I swallow a lot of aggression...along with a lot of pizzas." To most people, this was a funny line in a movie. To me, it was my reality. I totally believe in the connection between anger/aggression/loneliness and overeating and/or poor food choices. They got me where I was.

Thanks for bringing this up and sharing it, Sandie! I am a newbie, but your message struck me, so I just had to comment!

Bliss to you!
