Overeating
I am 37 with 2 step children(living with us ) and 1 child. The situation with my step daughters mother is very bad and it stresses me out a lot. My husband works 2nd shift and weekends so after work I am always with the chikldren and have to deal with their mother. I guess the point is that I feel isolated( since I cant go anywhere) and I get a little depressed so I EAT. I am fine while I'm at work but once I get home I eat. Please help. Oh, I am not from around here so I do not have any friends or family close by to help out,
Thanks for your advice!

That sounds like my dilema exactly!!! We (my wife and I) were recently awarded custody of my great nephews (seems their parents were more interested in drugs rather than in good parenting, there are also some armed bank robberies in the picture, but that is another story), anyway....we still have to contend with the children's natural mother. She is constantly nagging us to see the kids, turning us into the state for child abuse, etc,.etc. This stress has caused me to put on about 40 pounds over the last 2 years. I have the same pattern. I a great at work, but when I get home and have to deal with all these new family issues, I eat, and I eat. Maybe we can help each other???
