Last week my bf and I escaped a fire. Woke up in the night, front of the apartment engulfed in flames, running out barefoot with our cats. It was scary, but thank goodness most of our stuff wasnt too badly damaged and we managed to score a new place. The problem is since the fire i find im having trouble controlling my bingeing. My weight has been all over the place throughout my life and before the fire i had gotten back into a steady diet and exercise routine that was comfortable for me and i was on the right track to a healthy life physically and mentally. But in the last few days im gravitating towards the old fatty and sugary comfort foods i used to binge on. Currently we are transitioning from staying at my parents to our new place and i can tell ive put on a few pounds and im feeling more tired lately, but the draw to bad food is automatic. Maybe once we get settled i will be able to get back into the routine, but I'm feeling guilty for having a bad reaction because we are so lucky to be alive and have our belongings and people who care about us. Im looking for some support on how to keep myself from blindly comfort eating, or maybe just some words of motivation from those who gave faced similar challenges.
