Hi- I am new and a compulsive eater. I suppose I have always eaten a lot. When I was younger it wasn't a big deal because my metabolism was going ful throttle but when i started to see the effects of unhealthy eating on my body, i never could quite make the transition into controlling what I ate. It doesn't help that I am a control freak by nature, and so overeating not only stresses me out because of wieght gain but primarily because it make me feel out of control. When I am eating, I feel as if nothing and no one can stop me from it. And when I am done I feel worthless and hopeless. I need guidance. Any words of wisdom?
