7days and 8 pounds!!!
Started opti fast 7 days ago and have lost 8 pds!! Super pumped about that but a little ashamed to say I cheated today and ate a deviled egg!! Im trying to not let it haunt me but I just feel so damn guilty!! The past few days I have learned so much about myself and my addiction to food. Before I think I may have honestly convinced myself I was choosing to be big. Or that because of genetics I was "meant" to be big. Today and the last few days I have discovered thats just not the case. I AM A STRESS EATER and I have an emotional attachment to food!! hmmmmmm who'd of thunk it right? :) Im on my way i suppose! A little nervous, a lot excited, and totally ready to do this!! Surgery date 9/10!!
I feel ya! I am a stress and an emotional eater. I knew it before but now, at a year out, I am realizing it even more and its harder!

If you know you are a stress eater, you may want to pursue therapy to help you find other appropriate ways of stress relief that won't hit your waistline.
Good for you on the loss!
