Hi Jaime - yes, I can say that what you describe is possible - after all, I know when I would binge on the carby junky stuff, the effect was like a child sucking her thumb - self-comfort...but then we took that form of comfort away, and the feelings that the junk food influx buried/numbed/hid is there - in all its uncomfortable glory. Now it's gotta be faced and dealt with...in a healthy manner. How that happens , I'm still working on
