EMOTIONAL EATING
Have you ever been biten by the EE bug? Yep that is what I am gonna start calling it...the EE bug. Nasty little thing don't you think. But of course, maybe it is a big fatty bug. Oh "weight" that is just what it leads to is F-A-T. How do people get rid of this bug? Can't hire Pest Pro..they don't help. Wish the Orkin man would help, but he has other pests. So just HOW do you get rid of this bug? Tough question, isn't it?
Well, here are the answers that I have found that work for me.....
- Determine why I feel the way I do. Am I angry, frustrated, sad, bored? For me that is the big one....AM I BORED.
- Wait a bit......see if I am still feeling that way. I have been challenging myself to wait a minimum of 20 minutes to eat if it is not meal time. Yep....usually I am just bored.
- Exercise. Now I am not talking about going out for a jog, or anything strenuous like that. I have done things as simple as play the WII, even if it is NOT Sunday.
I find that if I can eliminate the thought of boredom from my mind momentarily even, I don't have infestations of the EE bug.
The farther I venture into this weight loss journey, the more I find it interesting. I guess because I try to learn more about the different things I am questioning. Just like the EE BUG. When asking this question I did...what else....a Google search and found this site. I found it to be rather interesting. Take a look....see if it fits you at all?
