Emotions and weight

Well, I haven't had much luck with the whole eating right and exercising thing lately. I am in the middle of a move across two provinces, and the first deal on our house fell through, so I had to deal with the stress of selling the house again. Also, my fiance left already to start his new job, so I am left alone in our almost empty house until the new owners take possession.

We did sell the house again, but I had already given notice to my job, and so I am currently unemployed. i am also unable to start work for the next two weeks at least, because I am stuck in a province I am about to leave, so it is hard to look for work when I am not in the right town.

I haven't dealt with the stress very well.Pretty much the only thing I have done since my fiance left is eat. My dog is still here, so I do make sure I go out with her, but truthfully yesterday was the first day I took her out for a walk that lasted longer than 15 minutes.

I am trying to figure out how to deal with my issues before I turn to food, but I have been turning to food for so long, it is hard to recognize my behaviour until AFTER it has happened. It is very frustrating. I am trying VERY hard to not let my little mini depression and food binge eating get out of control but it is hard to stop many years of behaviour in such a short amount of time.
