Quiet the Voice of Emotional Eating

Be proactive and develop strategies for conquering emotional eating. Write a checklist of activities you can engage rather than eat over your emotions. Many times the strongest compulsion for food occurs when you are feeling emotionally vulnerable. Many of us turn to food for comfort when faced with a situation, uncomfortable feelings, or looking to carve out time just for ourselves. Nurture yourself in other ways than food. Food is a temporary quick fix while self-comforting acts are long lasting. If you have given in to emotional eating, learn from it and start again. Make a plan by incorporating a new strategy for the future. Play it again - review the situation and feelings that you emotionally ate over and substitute another way of coping. Focus on the positive, healthy changes you've made in your life.

Empower yourself to silence the voice of emotional eating. Make your goal to be stronger than the pull of to eat over your emotions. Remember the answer to handling situations and feelings lies inside of you and not in a bag of cookies.
