Comfort eating (& drinking)

[Clickta]

Horrendous day. A loved one has been killed in an RTA, I had a hellish shift at work and the dream house DH and I were buying has fallen through.

All I want to do is drink wine, a lot of it, and eat crap (pizza and crisps, chocolate and cake). Desperately craving all the worst things. But I know tomorrow I'll just feel worse and I need a clear head for dealing with all this. And I've worked so bloody hard to start losing the weight, I can't face undoing it all.

I had a healthy dinner and every mouthful was miserable and I want to cry. I definitely eat my feelings, I'm not a person that loses their appetite.

Just venting I suppose. It's horrible when the things I'd usually turn to for comfort are a no-go. :( any tips?

I'm so sorry for what you have been through xx I would have the food (or some of which)are craving (in moseration)..maybe not the alcohol though. Sending love to you and your family

That's such a kind post, thank you.

I've managed to distract myself with food, ironically enough, by baking and cooking; making loads of nice comfort food for the rest of the family as they may not have time/energy as we deal with everything.

Still a bit in shock at today I think. But feel okay for at least I'm being productive.

I would let yourself have a treat and stop there. So one bag of crisps and a glass of wine.
then stop.
it’s not that many calories. Sorry you’ve had such an awful time
