Dear Debbie
If this change in eating habits is recent then I would suggest that you have a medical checkup because it could be caused by a hormone imbalance or depression. Once we have a diagnosis then we can look at dietary changes. In the meanwhile stick to eating healthy food like fruit and whole grains and fat-free milk and dairy to limit the damage as much as possible.
Take care
