[quote=Anonymous]I won't judge you, I've struggled with the same on and off for much of my adult life.

Obviously you aren't physically hungry, you aren't fueling your body because candy doesn't do that - you are feeding a hungry heart.

I would suggest looking into OA, or CBT with a therapist who understands disordered eating. There are also many books on the topic of disordered eating, Geneen Roth's Feeding the Hungry Heart is one of the best.

You definitely should purge sugar from your house. Your kids don't need junk food either, nor your husband or wife if you have one.

Read Dr. Robert Lustig's books or watch his YouTube video about sugar to understand just how horrible the substance is for your body and mind. Some of us cannot eat refined sugar in anything like moderation - it isn't just your guilt over eating it that makes you eat more, it is a real physiological response to the presence of sugar in your body.

Quit sugar, full stop (don't forget added sugars, they are ubiquitous now so this means ditching most UPFs). Expect a week of misery, gradually improving as more time passes. Stock your fridge and counter with fruits. Be amazed by how incredibly sweet an apple or orange tastes once your palate has adjusted because you no longer consume sugar.[/quote]
