I can't seem to stop myself from eating and eating...everying from popcorn to chocolate to chips...and on.
I am switching meds right now and feel hazy but I feel so bad about the weight I've gained and it's not even that much...about 7-10 pounds but I am obsessed. I don't feel attractive to my husband although he is constantly telling me that I look great, and I feel insecure out in public. I am 35 and I feel like I look old and fat as soon as I am outside, or if I am intimate with my husband. There have been times that I have been so frustrated that I have grabbed my stomach and squeezed it so hard in hatred that I have broken the skin with my finger nails. I feel horrible about myself.
Despite all of those feelings, and knowing full well that I should eat properly I can't seem to do it. I am taking a nutrition course and know better but it doesn't help...grrr. I feel like I have no control and that I am a failure.
I know that I am not purging so at least that's one thing that's good but I don't know how to stop this...it feels like I am insatiable when it comes to food of any kind.
Can anyone relate and does anyone have any suggestions? I would love to hear any ideas...
