It is something that I have tried control, but what ever drives me to overeat, eludes me at present 
I know what to eat, and what to avoid, I seem to have no willpower.
It amazes me that I was able to go to university as a mature age student, (with 5 kids, all at school) and study for my degree, and even do postgraduate studies and yet still not be able to control my weight issues. Humans are so amazing

Everyone has their vices, especially to cope with stress. Some people just have to keep thier mouth active. I'm one of them. I started drinking more water (which made me feel more full) and chewing gum a lot and that seemed to help a bit.
I also found that sitting in my house made me want to eat more. I started getting out of the house and therefore I couldn't eat as much. You also can control what you buy at the grocery store. If you don't buy garbage you can't eat it now can ya?
