Emotional eating is when people use food as a way to deal with feelings of satisfying hunger. Believe it or not, we've all been there. Have you ever finished a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downed cookie after cookie while preparing a big test? But when done a lot — especially realizing it — emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overall well-being.
Understanding what drives emotional eating can help people steps to change it. One of the biggest myths about emotional eating is that it's caused by feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they're stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine's Day or the celebration of a holiday feast. Sometimes emotional eating is tied major life events, like a death or a divorce. More often, though, it's the countless little daily stresses cause someone (seek) comfort in food.
We're all emotional eaters to a degree. But for some people emotional eating can be a real problem, (cause) serious weight gain or other problems. The trouble with emotional eating is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain. And you often may feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you like. That's it helps to know the difference between physical hunger and emotional hunger.
Next time you reach for a snack, wait and think about which type of hunger is driving it.
