We get stressed, or we feel down, or we're just restless and instead of doing things like taking a walk or listening to music, we reach for food to take care of it.

Ambivalence is one of the biggest enemies of change. If you aren't sure that you really want to take action on something such as your weight, ambivalence will usually win.

Food is the consolation prize. So many times, it's not even close to what you really want.

I hate resting. I feel restless. My preference is to be working.
