Emotional eating, that is one of my problems.
As much as I try sometimes to eat healthy, it is on those days, when I am really stressed out that I eat what I should not be eating and in amounts that are not even good for me. It is hard to admit it, sometimes I just do not even know how I was able to finish that bag of chips in such a short period of time, but I do. And I am not proud, I am really ashamed and I feel so bad about myself, than then again I feel depressed and I eat something else. And that is how the circle goes. I have tried yoga, meditation, you name it. And guess what? I am still an emotional eater. Lately life has been complicated. There have been too many things going on at once. Lots of work, pressure at work, money issues, and I can keep going, and going and I am sure I can justify my bad eating habits. I have to try to control myself. Writing this is not easy. I am being vulnerable, and I do not like it, but you know what, I need it. I need your comments, not only support ladies (or gentleman), I need the stop it, you know it is bad, do not do it again. I am so frustrated with myself right now. And the circle or emotional eating is not helping. I need to make big changes; I just do not know how to start. Any advice? I really some....

Hugs! I think many of us can relate to this. I think you writing about this is a breakthrough on moving to a place where this won't control you. Owning your emotions can be the best thing.

I can totally relate - I'm working on becoming a reformed emotional eater myself. I think for me, the best thing to do is to make the food difficult to get. For example, if I have a package of cookies sitting around, I will eat the cookies. If I have to actually bake the cookies, then I won't do it. This not only helps me stop and think before I eat, it also keeps down the amount of processed foods lying around. That's about the only hint I can give you! Just remember, every journey starts with a single step!

I'm right there with you. I try to not keep too many snacks in the house and if I do they are good snacks (veggies!). Make a list of okay snacks and always keep them in your house.

My best advice is to not buy anything you would typically binge eat on. That is the only thing I can do to keep myself from going face down in some cookies or some other junk. Hugs!
