Motivation REAL Emotional Eating: Do you do this? Is there a cure? Jul 17 2009

I know what you mean. I called that behavior my bratty self.  YellSometimes I just eat because I want to and sometimes it is emotional. I talk to myself in the mirror and tell myself to stop it and get it together. I had to do this today before my day started because I felt that I did not want to exercise and yesterday I ate a lot of junk. So that is what I am going to continue to do when I feel like I just want to eat. I am not saying it will work all the time but it is worth a try.

I have a similar story My mom always told me to finish everything on my plate because there were starving children in Africa. I always wondered was that going to help the children in Africa if I ate all my food? Anyway I have struggled with food all my life but this time something clicked for me. I now realized at the age of 47 that I am eating healthy because I want to feel good and this is for the rest of my life. I am no longer on a diet but a new way of eating. I find that I am now attracted to good nutritious food and not the junk that I thought that I had to have everyday. I feel more alive and in tuned to my body.  I don't hurt as much as I use to when getting out of bed. I don't feel sluggish anymore. I have been doing this for almost two weeks so I know that I am just beginning.Laughing
