I guess it is time to make an appointment and get lots of things checked out: blood pressure, cholesterol, thyroid, knees, hips and feet, etc.
I'm an everything eater. I eat socially (dates, parties and gatherings), absently (like while watching TV), because I'm bored (like while on the computer), emotionally (like when I'm sad because ice cream makes everything better), and with stress (usually caffeine and chocolate). I've been trying to exercise more to work off the stress instead of eat my problems away. I wish the following statement were true.
I use myfitnesspal.com which is free (I have the smart phone app that is free) to track what I am eating and/or exercising. I started doing that because I am an eater too.
ReplyDeleteI don't "diet" and using it has prevented me from dieting. However, it has helped me learn portion sizes and choose better snacks. I now carry apples and bananas with me and some fiber one bars in my purse for whenever I get hungry.
The nice thing is everything adjusts for your height, weight, and your goal.
One time I would scrutinize everything I ate by asking myself "will I really feel better after I eat it?" and "do I really want it?" Sometimes I ate it anyway, but other times it would stop my eating it. As you can see, I do not do that now but maybe I should.
ReplyDeleteOn the health issue at hand: yes, by all means see a physician. Find out if some of these things are due to health. Keep us posted.
