Reflecting on my progress lately, I started to realize and notice a pattern of behaviour and emotional eating that is almost triggered with the same feeling....
🔅
Regardless of what that feeling is... each person has a different trigger... Whenever you feel like going for that bucket of icecream or eating chocolates non stop or whatever your comfort food is... STOP & THINK... what exactly are you feeling? Why are you feeling it now? What triggered this feeling? What can you do to feel better NOW other than food? Be it, calling a friend, going for a walk, listening to music, seeking help, anything....
🔅
Even if you can't let go of the urge to eat, noticing and reflecting how you feel each time will help you work on it instead of escaping it.....

This is what I'm trying to do these days :) my go to techniques are usually calling a friend, going for a walk or a fun gym class.
