Debbi, with the holiday madness I haven't responded, but in reading your last few posts now I can relate. I, too, have been fighting the tendency to overeat lately, and have also been feeling a certain malaise. I think some of it is just this time of year -- the increased availability of the "wrong" foods, the shorter days, the tendency to be introspective to varying degrees of depression. One of the things I'm noticing is different for me is an ability to almost look at myself from the outside and say, "We're not doing this anymore." In the past, I'd just shove by that feeling; now I let myself feel it and be reeled in. I hope you find whatever works for you. It's certainly not easy.
