COMFORT EATING

Here are posts from kids, who say they eat because they are sad, bored, stressed, lonely, depressed, angry, nervous, frustrated, or even when they feel happy. Some say they feel they are 'addicted' to foods. Here are three articles on comfort eating - 1, 2, 3 - and four videos:

O man I am so angry at my self. I am 5ft 8 inches and 160 lbs. I spend so much money on food it is ridiculous. I tell myself I will by just a sandwich at lunch but then I tell myself just for one day I will buy some chips and a soda and so on. It makes me angry and frustrated.I wear baggy t shirts since I am told by my brothers I have man boobs and it gets me mad. I have always struggled with my wieght since I was in the 4 th grade. i was 150 lbs in the sixth grade and my wieght gos up and down. I think I eat so much since I am stressed over many issues from getting my permit, school, job, and some very personal issues i don't wish to post openly. I know it feels odd for a guy to worry about his weight but all my brothers, friends, and stuff are thin to the point where I get really frustrated.

i am 5'4 and weigh 190 lbs. I am an emotional over-eater and need help. Any suggestions? I have been successful at losing weight before, but last year i suffered from depression and was put on medicine that helped me gain weight. I went overboad with the food. I used to be active, but no longer am. I need help....please give specific suggestions. I am not looking for quick fixes, but any advice that anyone could offer would be great.

Hey I have a question......I am addicted to Diet Pepsi. But I want to loose weight and it is iportant. Well I drink at least 2 pops a day if not more and I can have a lot more. It is a phycological thing in my mind to where it calms me down. It is kinda odd I know and I know it is also all in my head, but is the pop good for loosing weight since it is Diet or is it still bad for me?Please help?*~*Amanda*~*

So I binged today. I had a WHOLE bag of LARGE chips and a KitKat bar after a HUGE dinner. I know this is what made me gain weight. BEfore Halloween I was only 105lbs. I used to be very over weight, but I worked hard to lose it. But now I've gained 15lbs, so I'm 120lbs. I know I'm not overweight still, but I know if I keep going on like this, I will be. I know it's 120lbs now, but if I keep going it'll be 130lbs, then 140lbs...EASILY. I ate like this because...well...of a guy who hurt me. I remember over the summer I lost weight by changing my lifestyle, and I've decided that it's time to get back on track. Weight loss is about changing eating habits permanently. If you diet and then overeat the next day, you won't accomplish anything. You'll probably gain, too. Just my word of advice. I'm 5'2, by the way. I know if I lost weight before, I can do it again.
