I have always had an issue with food. Always! Over the years it was a best friend of mine. It does not help either that I really love to eat.For a long while I went to Overeaters Anonoymous which is a 12 step program like AA or al-anon. It was nice to find people just like me and be able to share. It really is a great group. They run it like AA and have literature you can buy, phamplets, sponsors etc.
You just have to get your mind off eating when you get bored or stressed. Find a hobby, go for a run, or walk, join an exercise class, whatever....! There is some good books out there as well that can give you some ideas. You can also do an internet search of sites that deal just with this!!!
I can relate...Oh, I buy popcorn.....the 100 calorie bags. I pop it in the microwave and I'm good to go. There really is a lot of popcorn for 100 calories!!!
