I'm a stress eater who used to binge on junk food and skip heathy meals. Months ago I consciously made a shift so that there is plenty of fruit around so that if I feel stressed I'm at least making better choices. Unfortunately when I'm under really high levels of stress, I stop eating altogether, usually because I physically can't.
This is something that started in high school when my mother decided to make all our meals in the microwave (!) as a protest. The end result was that for two years I existed mainly on cereal and toast if I ate at all. I ended up with a doctor prescribing mylanta and a continuation of a lifelong issue with food.
Last week was one of those high stress times that left me unable to eat much. This week I want to eat fruit and fresh vegetables. So, that's new.
