Thanks for all the responses, it helps when you find other people fighting simular or the same battles..I think that just recognizing there is a problem
and taking actions to address the problem will be helpful...I am taking medication for depression and going to AA, OA and Weight watchers for the accountability factor. I am also taking Yoga for relaxation and stress reduction. That is the way I am dealing with this issue, and I am getting better at 58 years old..but I know my growth will be arrested if I don't keep trying to get healthier....I will continue to do what I need to get better...

today I am happy and working my program.
