There are many people today who use food to comfort or sooth themselves. They are called emotional eaters. If you eat when you are anxious, depressed, over stressed or bored that is a sign that you are using food for comfort and not nutrition. Although food can provide comfort for a brief time, it usually leads to overeating and weight gain.
Instead of stuffing your feelings with food, you can look for healthier ways to release your emotions. Write down what you eat, when you eat, and how you feel when you are binging on sweets may help you curb your emotional eating. You could also take your pet for a walk, ride your bike, listen to music or work on your hobby. If you are unhappy with yourself, then you are in control of making the changes that you desire. "Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself." -Leo Tolstoy
Best wishes,
