Guest guest Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Gluttony is an emotional escape, a sign something is eating us. De Vries So before we put that peice of food in our mouths, even though we know we are not physically hungry, lets sit down and figure out why we are trying to turn to food. I gained a lot of my weight during my dealings with my mother's alcoholism. No my mom wasn't the cause of the weight gain. It was the fact that I was using junk food to compensate not having anyone to talk to about my mom's drinking. It started out with me buying candy when I would go buy her stuff for her at the liquer store. Then my mom would always want to go out to lunch and have drinks. I would drive and order the best thing on the menu. We all know how bad resteraunt food can be. I'm still fighting it today. When emotional things happen, I want to turn to food. I still have to talk myself out of it. Why? It's easy to get to, food is easy to buy, food is legal to buy and junk food doesnt cost a lot of money. So what do I do now? I turn to walking at one of the local parks or I'll sit on the grass and relax. It's a way of talking things over with myself and not turning to food.
