Re: angry eating

[Guest guest]

Thea, Katcha, Twoadays,

I am right there with you with the scale. Nothing ever good happens to me after

I weigh myself. If I have gained weight I want to go emotionally eat, if I like

the number, it makes me go eat when I am not hungry to " reward " myself. Don't

feel bad about hiding the scale. I am right there with you! My husband hid the

scale for me for three months. I only have six weeks left...this is very hard

for me, but I truly like that I am not allowing the scale to dictate my moods.

These days I am happy because I feel happy and not because the scale tells me I

can be.

It took me nine years of IE'ing to get rid of my scale, so take baby

steps....Once I get through these six weeks I am going to see if I can weigh

myself only once every two weeks and go from there. Will keep everyone posted.

IE'ing since 2000

> boy am I aggravated today. i went to bed thinking about how happy I was to be

free of easter candy, and of course weighed myself and of course i was heavier

than ever. then I was so mad, and I ate everything in sight, well past the

point when i was full. I haven't eaten like this in a while. I don't even know

why because I had the thought " I am eating because I am mad which is not going

to help in any way " but I did anyway.
