How to Stop Emotional Eating - Part 2


   Recognize the signs of emotional eating.

   Emotional eaters tend to be guided by their emotions
rather than their hunger. Some eat when they are sad,
lonely, or bored. Others eat when they are stressed out.

   Most are simply carrying on behaviors learned in
childhood, when food was associated with comfort and
reward. Emotional eating has little to do with actual
hunger, and everything to do with unfulfilled needs.


   If you think you or someone you love might be
struggling with compulsive emotional eating, follow these
steps to start the recovery process.


   Emotional eaters tend to eat until they are
uncomfortably full, and they usually eat alone because
they are self-conscious about the amount of food they are
consuming. After an emotional eating binge, they might
feel disgusted, guilty, or depressed about their lack of
self-control.
