Emotional Eating in Crisis

 During stressful times I will emotional eat.  I eat to relieve the pressure, to relax, and to liven things up.  There isn't much that food can't fix.  Emotionally.  Outside of the emotions and keeping me alive it doesn't fix much else.  Texture tends to be important.  Crunchy during need for relaxing, sweets and soft during need to destress and savory during boredom.  

1. Pause: Think am I actually hungry?  

2. Say the Lord's Prayer

3. Try a distraction.  Try a small portion.  NEVER keep anything good in the house that isn't in a small portion.
