Well... let me just preface all of this by saying that I'm never really looking to "diet" or lose weight...just to be healthier. So I'm not exactly looking for the fastest way to drop these last 10 lbs or fit into a size 4 (which is laughable, really) - just trying to nourish my body better. (I'm more of a HAES proponent). So I don't mind discussing diet or hearing advice, but be aware that I'm not exactly looking for ways to restrict myself to 1,200 calories a day or go on a cabbage diet - I've enough issues with eating as it is. :P
I am oftentimes a stress-eater (and I gained a ton of weight leading up to and during my divorce). I combat that by eating mostly fruit/veggies when stressed...but if there's sweets or chips around, I've been known to attack those, too. I mostly don't keep them around. I also exercise to handle stress/anxiety.
