A couple days ago, I could not stop eating. I didn't stop to analyze how I felt, I just thought I was hungry! I was a little worried because the last couple weeks had went well. I lost weight, and I wasn't hungry. So why all of a sudden did I have to have something in my mouth every 15 minutes?

It wasn't until evening that I realized I was stressed. My husband quit working for one of his accounts, which will reduce our income by around 40%. I was pushing it out of my mind (I thought). It was interesting to realize that what I was feeling was not hunger at all, and maybe, just maybe, if I had paid more attention to how I really felt, I could have done something like exercise (now there's an idea), to relieve some of the nerves.

Learn from my mistakes (I've done this more than once), when you can not get the food into your mouth quick enough, ask yourself if you are really hungry. Do you feel it in your stomach or in your head? Baby steps!
