Hi Hope.
It sounds as if you have done brilliantly well with coping with your partner being away. I am sure it will be great to have him back, however.
It seems that you are starting to get to grips with the huge issue of food and attachment and communicating with the part of you that needs to over eat. That seems to make a lot of sense. It's sort of the same but opposite for me. I am trying to accept that I can actually enjoy food. I am doing better but the guilt and shame still niggles away. I am somewhat overweight as well, but for now, I think I will put that aside. I really think that, as these issues are about so much more than actual weight, they need to be looked at first. Does make sense to you?
All the best, and hugs to you, Hope.
