Discouraged

I'm on day 31 of step one and enrolled in the step two class. So far, the only positive change I can see is that I don't get hungry between breakfast and lunch. But I'm gaining weight - which I find scary. I've been trying to journal and find that my attitude is usually positive which I attribute simply to being older as I have been coming to terms with my body for over 70 years. But more and more I'm putting down "scared" for how I feel emotionally. This has been puzzling over the last 4-5 days. Even as I'm writing this post I'm beginning to see where it's coming from. Help!!
