Emotional Eating Article

My son sent me this article on Emotional Eating, written by Lee Kern, M.S.W., L.C.S.W, who is the clinical director for Structure House, a residential weight loss facility in Durham.  Kern leads the post-bariatric surgery program.  Since so many on this board profess to emotional eating issues, I thought you would find it interesting.

Betsy, thank you for sharing this article.  Very informative and I also thought the links below the article for additional reading were very useful too.  Am going to bring this link over to my surgery month board to share there.  Plus I got an 'aha' out of it too....from reading there I now know why I have what seems like an abnormally long pms symptoms.  Something called Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder.  Have never heard of it before but boy does it list my symptoms...wow!  Nice to feel a little less 'fruitcake'.  Definitly going to discuss this with my gyn at our next visit.   Molly
