Tamar shared that she’s been relying on food and social media to deal with being at home. She said in part; “I’m going to be a hundred percent transparent. I feel like I’ve been masking all of my feelings. I haven’t had water until yesterday. I’m masking my feelings with food, with television, with looking at other people’s pages.”

She added; “I be hopping back and forth off of people’s lives. Almost like I’m trying to find myself when I know who I am. You know who you are…I feel like sh*t! I hate who I have become in these past five and a half-six weeks! I’ve been closet-eating in quarantine! So why are we trying to find ourselves through other people and through other things such as food. I feel like sh*t. I hate who I’ve become in these past 5-6 weeks.”

Tamar was joined by her To Catch A Beautician co-host Johnny Wright, mom Evelyn Braxton and social media personality Tabitha Brown who shared their advice on how she can eat healthier.
