Realised I’m an emotional eater

Last night I was upset about something and went to the fridge to have a ladoo (Indian sweet) I had made earlier. But I had reached my calories for the day. I stopped myself holding the ladoo and asked myself why I wanted it. Was I hungry? Well in that case I should have some more chicken and veggie soup, I realised I wasn’t hungry. I was feeling really bad about something that happened earlier and I wanted something to dull the emotional pain in my stomach. Of course usually this is all subconscious and in the past I would have just stuffed the food in my face without thinking. I realised what emotional eating means and that I am this weight because of it. I put the ladoo back and went to bed. I feel so proud of myself this morning. I want to get into the habit of being mindful and questioning everything before it goes into my mouth.
