My heart goes out to you and I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. My daddy is terminally ill, and only has a few months left, so in a sense, I can relate.
I can also relate on emotional eating, and let me tell you there were times I would eat until I felt beyond nauseous..and I thought that was what "full" meant.
The best way to really get in to normal portions would be to eat less, as awful as it sounds. One thing that helps me is to drink about 2 glasses of water before a meal, and then eat..but your mind and body have to get comfortable with you eating less, so for a while, you might be a little hungry after a meal. Its hard, but definitely doable. One thing I do also is put a tasteless fiber powder ina glass of water before I eat, and it makes my stomach seem more full..
I believe you can fight this battle and come out victorious, and if you ever need anything at all, motivation or a crying outlet, dont hesitate to ask!
