Well I cheated all week, and not to my surprise I'm up another 3.5 pounds....I still have the odd person say how good I look, but I feel terrible, I don't have the self confidence that I had as I was lossing....I have done a lot of emotinal eatting this week, and the more I realize I'm doing it, the more I continue...This mornig I said once again, this is it, but then the headache hits, I become missriable and start eating once again... 2 years ago when I lost 117 pounds doing this, it seemed so easy...now I struggle every single day with it...maybe it just isn't ment to be right now....brighter day tomarrow I hope

We won't love you any less because you had a bad week. You've got it in you to succeed! Look at the emotional eating as something you needed this past week, and then say "I'm stronger this week." When the headache hits, think about the heartache which hits stronger.
What is your weakness food? What food do you run for when going through this? Donuts? Ice Cream? Pasta? Maybe we can help you find a healthier substitute.
By the way - do you exercise? I know it's tough to get started, but I find that I cheat less when I work out because my endorphins keep me emotionally higher. Even if it's just an evening walk... something to get you out of the house and away from the fridge.
