Yes it CAN be done ....
I am VERY happy to report that I feel in SO MUCH better control of my emotional eating and my rebellious tendency to seek a serotonin " high " from too much food rather than using it simply to nourish myself and getting that high from exercise ...
In the four weeks plus since my nasal surgery I havent been able to walk ( on docs orders ) ..much less run or do anything else strenuous .... yet i havent gained an OUNCE , thanks to daily meetings of Overeaters Anonymous and doing the twelve steps.
BOY IS THAT A RELIEF !!!
I have never been able to hold down a desk job because my weight got out of control ....SO FAST ... and I really DID know even recently that my problem was " duct taping " my mouth if U will ..not more sports ...
but i felt powerless to stop nibbling ...
Well thank God , i feel in so much better control now ... and im doing things to make my LIFE not just my food more Ava friendly - too ...hard things , like de cluttering my house , long - overdue accounting , building projects . I even made a small sculpture which was an amazing breakthrough ! U GO AVA !!

You go girl! I think it's a process to figure out what works for us, both mental and physical. You've been putting in long hours towards that goal and it's really paying off for you. Many kudos to you for hanging in there when it was so difficult at times!
