I have to daily work on making good food choices.  When I am stressed food has always been what I have turned to for comfort.  I never realized how much  until my band.  I have had two adjustments and currently have about 4ml in my band.   I feel the restriction when I am making good healthy food choices, but as you know, when emotionally eating, it is not the healthy food we crave.

There are so many thoughts and books about emotional eating.  But usually about a third of the way through the book, I am even more emotional or stressed.  I think the philosophy I am going to work with is alternative releases of emotions.  Obviously crying is not the best one, which I find myself doing more of.   I am going to focus on quilting which I love and may even try to throw in a little exercise.  You know they say that these activities can release some of the good hormones that make you feel good.  I am going to give it a try.
