How Do I Stop Emotional Eating?
A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭

I eat when I am bored, I eat when I am tired, I eat when I am frustrated. I am constantly eating for reasons other than hunger. How do I stop? It's like it just slips under my radar and next thing I know, I have polished off a whole pie, or cookies or bag of potato chips.

Those Of You Who Weigh 300 Pounds Or More, How Often Do You Get Fat-shamed?
A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭

How Do You Handle A Spouse (family Member, Friend) Who Is Too Supportive And Understanding?
A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭

My husband always tells me that I look great and that he loves me no matter what. Tough problem, right? :-) But I don't feel great. I felt great when I was 40 lbs lighter. I accept what he says and let it sway me to act in a way that is not in my best interests - going out to eat, eating what I know I shouldn't, drinking, not exercising.

How Do You Get Rid Of The Munchies On A Small Fixed Income?
A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭

It seems like I can't get rid of the munchies. Usually I buy one 2 pound bag of baby carrots and go through them in a couple of days. I can only get groceries at the first of the month or I would buy them more often. I know my munchies stem from wanting the crunch but once the carrots are gone I feel like I'm doomed.
