I have a history of bulimia and compulsive overeating. I have been trying very hard not to turn to food to numb myself or comfort myself, but last week I did and I feel horrible. I arrived for my therapy session really upset about stuff that was going on in my life, only to find out my therapist had an emergency and wasn't going to make it. I was so upset. So what did I do? I ate. I'm proud that I didn't overeat and stayed within my points (I'm on Weight Watchers), but I ate for the wrong reasons and it felt like I used to feel when I binged. I guess my real issues are 1) I ate for comfort and 2) I enjoyed the food. Does anyone else ever feel guilty for enjoying food?

Almost every day.... I am a gastric bypass patient that has lost 130 pounds... I know there are foods I "shouldn't" eat but sometimes you have to eat something good just to get by so I try now to do so within limits... it's hard for me to eat a piece of chocolate and not feel guilty but I'm learning it' s ok to be human and "enjoy" something once in awhile... I hate kicking myself all the time for being human but it seems I do it a lot.
