Well to be honest I would probably still be eating for comfort if it still helped. But no amount of food or even chocolate can make this pain go away. I was a bit mad about that!
I too am counting calories and walking. I am still trying to figure it all out because some days I don't eat enough. I am happy with the food I eat, things I really like, but I am usually under my calorie limit. I don't have a lot of confidence in my choices yet and I am scared of the holidays.

Regarding my weight loss it took nearly 3 years but I just kept pushing and counting my calories and picking myself up when I failed at being on plan. In the end it wasn't easy, and I wasn't perfect everyday, but over time, I managed more on-plan days than off-plan days and made it to goal.
