At least you have got yourself back on the plan and have set yourself goals to aim towards and have a plan of action in place. I would definitely recommend using both scales and measuring tape to track your progress as the scales dont always show the hard work but seeing your measurements going down can be quite motivating. With the comfort eating i would try different distraction techniques until you find what works best for you
Most of us here are emotional eaters, and part of the process of making healthier decisions is swapping "comfort food" or "food treats" for healthier options. Just think of what would suit you instead of junk food, and allow yourself to have it if "necessary". In my case I allow myself to have pasta dishes instead of pizza or some toast with olive oil instead of cakes or chocolates. You'll lose weight slow but you'll learn to say no to what's going to ruin your effoerts. Good luck!
Claire666 I'm a stress/emotional eater too and yes its not good, in fact its quite frustrating!! I'm back on trying to break this habit yet again after blowing healthy eating/drink for past 3 days-its really not easy but must keep trying. Good luck!
