Ht. 5'5", Start: 164 lb, Today: 180 lb, Goal: 145 lb - Hi. My mom just got this new job and she has to travel a lot now--like once a month for 3-7 days at a time. I'm not used to her being gone becuase she's like my soul mate and I don't really want to stay home with my dad. But I know I have to be mature and cope with this, only I'm afraid my emotional eating will get worse instead of better. What can I do during her trips?

my dad is an auditor and hes gone usually once a month also, i don't live with my dad, but i still miss him when he is gone. Just tell yourself that you will eat well for your mom, so she can see you get thin =D
