I used to emotionally eat at well. Do you know what emotions are causing you to overeat? Sometimes it helps to think what's the cause and then find solutions. I used to be around 220-230 and then once I dealt with my emotions, I got down to 170. Right now, I'm stressed and overeating again [back up to 190], but I'm working on it. Want to be diet buddies?
