Lifestyle tips

Have any of you experienced emotional eating while being part of the community and if so, please share your thoughts.

If Im somewhat anxious I'll start to stress eat, like my fullness receptors just turn off and I'll pig out. But if I get too stressed my appetite just disappears and I'll struggle to force my to eat enough

Although I do enjoy snacking every now and then, eating meals I like. I find myself eating more to cope with loneliness and boredom.

I find when I'm sad/depressed, the first place i go is to a coffee shop for a mocha/Frappuccino (season dependant) and a few baked goods. Admittably being apart of this community has given me the confidence to order large (xl when avaliable) and 4-6 baked goods at a time as opposed to 2, but hasn't changed much in terms of how often i emotionally eat...

I'm also a huge boredom eater as well, I just eat to do something lol. I keep snacks by the couch so whenever I'm watching TV I'm usually eating...

I'll watch comfort movies while I'm eating just so I would feel better. I personally don't want to eat large quantities of food in public. I wish I had the confidence to do that, but I don't. I usually eat alone, watching TV. Idk what it is about food and snacks that takes away the pain and depression but it's working? I'll feel full and satisfied. I do get sad sometimes seeing my plate or bowl being cleaned and bags becoming empty, that I'll admit.
