There has been much talk on this subject, probably with Oprah making it "popular", but I do want to know some tips on how to NOT emotionally eat!
I can eat healthy a few days, especially if I have water throughout the day, and plan on just one snack: I then eat good portions of food, have a small snack, don't gorge on fast-food or sodas..and I feel great that day!
Then, there are other days when I drink sodas, which make me crave salty foods (and not the healthy nuts or pretzels), then I crave something sweet...and decide that if one donut tastes good, then 3 donuts will taste better...and I feel guilty and think about all the calories I'm adding to my diet. I feel fat and then "give up" and keep eating more and more.
How can I stay in the frame-of-mind to eat healthy, be healthy and happy for the day?
