[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like stress and anxiety are also big factors. Let's face it, when our worlds are turned upside down, what is the greatest comfort? Food. My heart goes out to you and your girls. I would say something to the therapist, and maybe she/he will have some ideas to help with this.[/quote] The suggestion was to talk a lot about healthy eating. Ex has the kids so focused on meeting his needs that I hate that they have to parent themselves around this as well. We've been getting fruit at the farmer's market for snacks and doing a fair amount of biking and it seems to be having an effect - they seem a bit happier being more active and their clothes are fitting better. Both kids tend to have growth spurts around now so they are leaning out a bit. One has a cavity so eating sweets hurts her tooth.[/quote]
