having been through this myself. my advice is to be kind to yourself. you're "pigging out" as you put it..because you're hungry(though not physically). the way that i recovered from "food abuse" was to quit judging myself, figure out what i was really hungry for (surprise, it wasn't pasta) and start taking care of myself in different ways. quit being so hard on yourself. maybe you just need to give yourself permission to pig out until you can see the doc. there are worse things...and remember...you're really just trying to take care of pain and food has few repercussions than some other methods of easing pain. hang in there love grace

No. I'm physically hungry. When I am stressed really bad I am not hungry. Now my body is acting more normal. I'm not using food for pain. It's totally normal hunger and healthy hunger but I just am kind of scared that I will gain a few pounds and flip out.

alliecat,

Eat Fat free foods, or at least reduced fat. I can eat as much as I want of those, and the weight stays off.

Best Wishes,
Colors
