Quiet the Voice of Emotional Eating

LISTEN means that you've identified what you're feeling or the bothersome situation. Once you've identified the trigger to the drive to eat over your emotions, you can Listen and emotionally process the feeling or situation.

There are distinct differences between emotional eating and physical hunger are:

* If you are craving a specific food choice, and only that food will suffice (such as chips, cookies, pizza, or another unhealthy food choice), that is emotional eating. If you eat because you are experiencing physical hunger, you are open to food choices to satisfy that hunger.

* To eat because of uncomfortable emotions hunger strikes suddenly while physical hunger occurs gradually. Emotional hunger happens instantaneously and wants to be satisfied NOW. Physical hunger does not demand to be satisfied immediately and can be delayed.
