Comments on: Why I Became Obese – Compulsive Overeating http://amerrylife.com/2010/02/25/why-i-became-obese-compulsive-oveeating/ Sat, 11 Feb 2012 20:28:22 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Beth http://amerrylife.com/2010/02/25/why-i-became-obese-compulsive-oveeating/#comment-32816 Beth Sat, 31 Jul 2010 00:19:34 +0000 http://amerrylife.com/?p=2854#comment-32816 Did you read my old diary or something? Seriously, this is exactly the way I was in high school as well. When food would go missing, my 3 siblings always knew who to blame. When I was 9 years old, I would climb the shelves of our pantry to get to the candy my mom put on the top shelf. I'm glad I've changed in the last few years. I've come a long way in changing my eating habits - but I never actually sat down and wrote about how I got this way, and I think that might be the next step...thanks for posting this and inspiring me to do the same thing.

And I think harder to deal with than any other addiction because you are faced with food all the time and can't just say no. Avoidance isn't an option like other addiction treatments. It's hard but the more we all admit and think about it and how to deal with it the better it gets. It is unique.
