Over-eating – I can’t control it

Dear Unhappy girl

First of all, I want to say that it is amazing that you come forward with your problem. The fact that you recognize that you have a problem – which you call “food addiction” is actually a start, and I have precisely created this web site to help people – and I am happy to be available.

I have been in the same situation myself. When I was younger, I could not control my consumption – and like you describe it, you become angry, tired and aggressive, and you take it out on those closest to you – parents, friends, etc.

When I was 10, I was diagnosed as being allergic to several E numbers and dyes – precisely because of my eating habits. Because I have changed it between then and now, I am no longer allergic.

To be able to help you, I need to ask you 2 things. The first thing you should do is take a picture of yourself - hang it up beside your bed, because that should be your goal. Then, I wish to have a bit more personal contact with you, maybe by emailing. I need to know more about your allergy to certain foods, if not I cannot guide you through the big jungle of products.
