Emotional Eating

Hey Everyone

Today I felt like I should talk about emotional eating. It's definitely something that we all do whether or not we realize it or not. For me, I find that I eat when I feel crappy about something. Sometimes it has to do with gossip, friends lying and family stuff. I could go on forever those are just a few things. I was once so bad that I would sit at school and plan what I was going to binge on. When I ran out of things like bakers chocolate and desserts I would binge on gallons of tomato juice, 5 or six pieces of plain white bread with butter. One of my go-to's was to make 3 packets of those dry chicken noodle soup noodles and eat it all. I would eat 1 or sometimes 2 of those frozen pizzas. Afterwards I would sit on my bed and cry my eyes out thinking "why me?" I became increasingly jealous of my other friends who didn't have this problem. I compared my body to theirs, and sometimes I would pick little flaws of theirs just to make me feel better about myself. I tried to stop but nothing seemed to work. I was stressing over it but that didn't seem to work. I found working out and being healthy great in helping control my binges. I'm not saying I haven't done it in years, because the truth is it does happen sometimes. I hope that by sharing with you all you will be able to start figuring out your emotional eating
