Shiny,

"..He KNOWS these are my LL’s, but so far he’s shown little inclination to fill up these tanks. And so I fill my face with food.."

I am such an emotional eater also. I know exactly what I need to do to lose weight, I even exercise regularly but I am addicted to food. That quick fix of chocolate. The fact that I am doing something I know I shouldn't be.

I even taped on my fridge.."Is what I am about to do going to bring me closer to my goal or farther away." This definatley applies to food also.

Watch Dr. Phil, monday and tuesday this week. I am taping the shows. I also just got his new book from the library. I think he is right on target re: Healing Feelings. If we conquer our emotional eating problem our weight won't be an issue.

The heavier you feel, the less sexy you feel and your H probably picks up that vibe from you.

I think talking or writing to him re: this HUGE need not being met, etc.... Is very important. Don't let this issue fester.
