Greetings! You're indeed not alone! And I'm totally with you on loving food SO MUCH. It's really hard to watch all the people around me eating incredibly delicious food while I basically eat like a monk. It IS getting easier for me though. Anyway, I'm glad you found your way here. Many *hugs* your way!
