Emotional Eating - Better Solutions To Stress

Posted by LoveCause on Friday, 18 April, 2008 @ 5:00 am

Are you an emotional eater addicted to sweets?

When you feel stressed or anxious, do you get a sudden craving for chocolate?

Is your best friend a big bag of potato chips?

If you answered “yes” to these questions, you fit the profile of an emotional eater.

Millions of people fall into this category and emotional eating ranks as one of the main reasons people become overweight.

Emotional eating does not satisfy hunger, it temporarily satisfies an emotional or psychological disruption in our well-being.

Eating is a quick and easy fix–as simple as a opening the refrigerator, running down to the corner drug store, or stopping by the fast food drive-through window.
