I have been to the same t for over 7yrs (love her to pieces!) for depression, anxiety, low self esteem/self-worth, for which I have suffered most of my adult life. I am now 47 and I have seen her twice now for binge eating....which I have had most of my adult life as well. She told me until I get control of my disorder, I will never maintain any weight loss. She gave me a 2-page worksheet to do. Lots of questions. I have filled it out once...took me 25 minutes and did prevent a binge. I think my issues with food are pretty much emotional. But, I also know I will eat for no reason at all...it's a mindless behavior.
I know how to lose weight, exercise, etc.....it's my *mind* that I need to figure out.
