It can be a source of great comfort and stress relief. Unfortunately it goes straight to our waistlines and cholesterol levels. We should need to practice discipline and a better healthier lifestyle to counter this , which is easer said than done.

Always watch what you eat (nevermind the 'when') and you'll be fine. Keeping yourself busy when you're hungry sounds like a great idea. Those are some very good points you have there.

Being over weight is an emotionally draining and physically draining situation to be in and many times your struggle is reduced to ridicule and insensitivity. The exhilaration you feel when you look back 5 months before you made a conscious effort and see positive results is truly gratifying and often creates wide smiles and happy tears.

According to your article, it sounds like I might actually be addicted to some of the stuff I keep stuffing myself with. Perhaps it's time for me to get back to just turning on the tap, drinking some water, and then getting back to work. :( I used to rely on the water method, but recently I’ve been really gorging myself too much on foods that I like.

I agree with you for the enjoyment factor - if you are going to eat cake, by all means enjoy it. My point was more along the lines that some spend significant time making the "right" decision for what tasty treat to have for dinner. For me, if I've spent more than 5 or 10 minutes wondering what to have I just eat a piece of bread and I'm done with it. Decision over! True Philosophizer, as human being, one size doesn’t fit all.

I found that if I thought carefully about what I wanted to eat, and, no matter whether it was good for me or what, made sure I got to have it, I was able to have only as much as I needed, rather than having all sorts of things that weren't it in an attempt to distract myself from the desire. Just a thought - generally if one doesn't work for ya, the other will :) Interestingly enough, I found the exact opposite method beneficial – paying close attention to the enjoyment of eating rather than just stuffing my face.

Scott Adams (of the Dilbert fame) mentioned this in http://dilbertblog.typepad.com/the_dilbert_blog/2006/10/optimist_cures_.html Though I have no idea whether that is true, at least stuffing yourself with water keeps your stomach feeling bloated, and helps to deter you from filling the human garbage can with energy-loaded stuff when you need it the least.
