THE PROBLEM
• Throughout our lives many of us have turned to food to ease our pain or fear.
• We felt comfort in eating and found ourselves turning to food whenever we were hurt, angry or frustrated.
• Food became our comforter, our friend.
• Some of us may have one certain food that we can not stop eating, or are unable to eat only in healthy amounts.
• Some of us may have been emotionally, physically or sexually abused and use food to cope with the emotions of those events
• Some of us may have had healthy eating habits as children or young adults, but at some point in our lives we chose to overeat and lost the ability to discern when we were physically hungry or when we were physically full.
• Some of us may have turned to food after obtaining sobriety in other areas.
• We thought food was "safe," not realizing it could become our "drug of choice".
