My problem is when I am hungry or bored, I turn to wine or light beer. After a few drinks, I eat anything and everything. Does anyone know if there is a thread or even a different forum for people trying to lose weight and control alcohol at the same time? Another problem for me is eating out and making the wrong choices, or eating too much of the right choice.

Nothing. However, part of me thinks back to my troubled narcissist family past and I am working on defeating the feeling of "oh you'll just end up being a screw-up sooner or later anyways, just as you do with everything else." Waiting for the eventual failure. I have my way of losing and its super easy to do compared to all the crap I used to do - hard for me to believe it sometimes, feels almost too good to be true. It has gotten worse with this cold-snap NY weather, but I am not severely depressed/hopeless - just feels like a long long period of feeling "slightly below average."

Mine is impatience/anxiety. I have a hard time seeing the little victories in each day, and taking my diet as a day-to-day thing. Instead, I look at the big picture and how long it is going to take me to get there, and how much work it is... I'm a defeatist. :S

All of it. I love to eat and I love unhealthy foods. I hate exercising and I'm very impatient. Eventually I just give up.
