I feel stuffed and yucky. I'm in tears while writing this.

My husband may be loosing his job (b/c his employer is not doing well do to the economy), and things are so, so stressful for me now. He was blaming me for all his problems at work - but last night he finally said it was not all my fault an unfair what he was saying.

I feel so lost and afraid that if I can't find a way back soon I will undo all the good I have done for myself - but things are so hard at home now, I just don't know if I can get back on track soon. I know I should be stronger than this - but he is just wearing me down. He says he will try to stop, but he is in so much pain I don't know if he can.

I forgot to add this link -- it's the forum for emotional eating support....it might help!! http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...eating-atkins/

I just read your post and feel for you -- it's so hard to be under such stress and doesn't help with your husband is blaming you. Just remember he is afraid so he's taking all his frustration out on your -- it's not right but it happens. Don't let this sabbotage all your hard work - you have come too far to give up now. This is one part of your life that you have full control over and right now you need that control. Take care of yourself, don't let the words in your house break you down. Good luck -- check in with me -- I'm always here to listen
