I couldn't post as a response...I am not the best at this, but I will give you another suggestion - water. It does help because it starts to fill you up. But if that doesn't work because the stress is so high, I carry, a small dove square piece of dark chocolate (not a candy bar). It helps with the cravings. I make sure I stay away from a lot of anything. The other thing...you have to look at what is causing you stress. If it is the lack of support from people at home then you have to take a step back. I won't discuss it with my husband. He is a bean pole and can't understand why I struggle. The conversations never go well...had one as a matter of fact this morning. It made me livid. I did break down and ate something I totally shouldn't have...Now I'm pissed at myself. I have to remember...it is really only me I can blame...until I stop blaming others or stressing out over certain things it won't happen. You have to make yourself happy
