Can't seem to stop eating

[Brunneria]

I know exactly how you feel. My story is very similar however I have a lot of weight to lose and it's just going up at the moment. I dint seem to have control of my eating at all. I feel like a drug addict and it's really making me feel ill and depressed. I've even started secret eating as I'm so embarrassed about the amount I eat.

You are not alone. So many of us have had similar experiences (although mine has not involved injected insulin).

It is incredibly difficult to distinguish between the carb-craving eating, the emotional eating, and the genuine hunger eating. In my case I believed I had an eating disorder, with accompanying depression, for years before I finally managed to lower my carb intake to a level that didn't trigger the cravings. But not before I had binged and starved my way through several very destructive yoyo diets. Thankfully, that pattern of eating is a thing of past for me, but I remember it very well, and there are several other people who post here who have had similar experiences.

Please do not be embarrassed, and please keep posting.
