having no kids of my own, i can't offer any emotionally supportive advice except to hang in there...from my own memories of starting school, it gets easier for them, hence it'll get easier for you...i've found those 100-calorie snack-packs to be really helpful when i want to binge (rather then half a pack of normal oreos, i'll eat like half a box of oreo crisps...still not good but much better then it could be)
