my question is: "when does it stop????"

i absolutely think that it starts early - i did look at this (my overeating) as part of a self-development course and came to the conclusion that it came about after my brother was born and i didn't get the same attention i was used to, so eating was a comfort/way of getting attention.

it's not often that i'm not shovelling something into my mouth..... be it a healthy snack or a cup of tea or whatever.....
