So now I am back to eating baby food from little jars  

Nope, never tried that.. can't imagine that I'd want to either. Sorry that you've been so stressed out. Wish I knew how to help that, but I still struggle with it sometimes myself. Best advice I can give is 1. if you must eat all day, choose healthier things to eat, and 2. try exercise first, it might relieve some of the stress and make you not so interested in eating. And if you're craving sweets try those lower calorie sweets that I've mentioned before, like sugar free pudding or something similar.

OK baby food, fine. But if you start eating cat food, I'm going to be seriously worried about you!

ick. no i haven't eaten baby food today, or in fact at all for at least thirty years, i am not sure that it is suitable for adults anyway. why don't you try fruit for your sweet tooth? - will fill you up for longer.

I had a substitute teacher in high school that ate baby food for lunch to stay thin. And boy was she thin! She said the only problem was that the baby food was usually more expensive to buy at the grocery store than the regular food she would normally buy for herself. Is that true for you?

CYNTHI!!! U ARE being a bad girl, lol. I have never eaten baby food in my life. Could hardly stand to give it to the boys when thet were babies except for the fruit of course. I know u were worried about the terrible situation there & Jo being out in the middle of it. I hope things get better soon.

cynthiann I hear you but never went to baby food but I am a sweet lover
and sadly I am also a diabetic, and when I get stressed or upset as I was today over some odd incidents on my access bus trip to the lab and back, I also eat. So as I missed breakfast as I had to fast for the darned cholesterol test in with all the other tests, when my tablemate wanted to know if I wanted her enchilada oh my I jumped at the offer. She cannot eat meat as she has gout. So I had two enchiladas plus the other food on my plate;.came up to my room, tried to mylot and was so sleepy, so decided to go down to the residents meeting . that woke me up some, specially as the lady next to me had her dog with her, a small pretty dog. usually dogs and I get along famously. so when I tried to pet his cute little head he snapped at me and growled. hello, dont you let that dog bite me, lady.so they served snacks,cakes , cookies all the stuff I am not supposed to eat but I did. smarting over being snapped and snarled at. Ihave never in my life before had a dog of any kind ever do that to me.So I ate just one piece patting myself on the back for the will power, then someone passed the plate, I took two pieces, and ended up eating five pieces of chocolate and white cake too.no baby food but lots of delicious sweet cake, and zoom went the blood sugar.

The fruit baby foods actually taste pretty good. I have not tasted it since my daughter was a baby though. I did not eat any baby food today, but I could see how the fruit desert ones that are pretty sweet could curb a sugar craving.

You have a great sense of humour cynthiann! I’m an emotional eater too but I am not drawn to baby food I must say. I am actually talking to a therapist about my need to overeat when I feel sad or stressed, amongst other problems, (LOL)! I drink tea or coffee, chew gum and deal with whatever I am feeling whenever I have the need to medicate myself with food. It’s really hard though isn’t it? You know when you’re doing that it’s not the answer but you go right ahead and do it anyway and eat another lunch or chocolate...

Hi Cynthiann, lol, the last time I ate baby food was about five years when weaning my son, some taste yummy though I agree! It is not something I would put into my basket these days though. I can relate to eating when stressed though. I tend to comfort eat too, not great for the waistline but feels good at the time eh! Hugles. Ellie :D

No, I have not eat baby food in some time now. It's actually been years. I did use to like some of them. The fruits and desserts. Like you I found them to be really good.
If you must eat why not try eating raw veggies like carrots, broccoli, etc.
This is what I do when I find myself in a slump and just must have to eat something but I can not handle the calories.
Hummm, speaking of food....I'm hungry now. I think I will make some biscuits and bacon for breakfast. lol
