"Chances are you're using overeating as a way to escape yourself. It's an attempt not to feel or thin..." — Karen Salmansohn

I'm lucky I live near Whole Foods... so if I'm hungry, I can walk in there and grab something yummy... already made... or make it myself. I love to cook. I make a killer marinara sauce.

I feared vulnerability more than my actual emotional pain itself!

All my life, my immediate response to emotional pain has been to make jokes. Lots of jokes.

The more you stay with and/or complain about a toxic person, the more you're merely delaying doing the important inner work you need to do - to heal your wounds, expand your limiting beliefs, and show yourself far more love and respect.
