When my inside looked at your outside, I overate. Envy of what others seemed to be and of the possessions they had was a prime trigger for overeating, turning to food to compensate for an apparent lack. No amount of food can satisfy envy.
Food for Thought
Last night I was talking to my friend and she said, "Have you been going through depression again?" If I envy anyone, it is those with good health.
Food is a filler or should I say a filler upper. Many people see themselves as clean and sober, only to become addicted to food. They use food to substitute for their drug of choice.
I don't have those less than feelings that I had prior to recovery. For me it is a habit that I developed over the years when I was emotionally upset.
Be it envy or any other emotion, a Higher Power is there waiting for me to turn things over to Him.

We always want what we don't have.
What we see in others is a reflection of what is within us.
