this question is for every one which emotional eats.

how do you stop yourself from eating?

[JMR27]

keep your mouth shut

[Androcles]

There are several ways. First don't buy anything to eat, an empty cupboard helps. Second, get wire your mouth shut - your dentist should be able to help. Three, get a hobby more interesting than food. Four, get your partner to monitor your behaviour and step in if you look like eating.

Keep this up for a few months and the ultimate method of not eating will arise...........

Simple: I don't!
I'm only about a stone overweight and I walk a lot but I would like to drop that stone. Trouble is, I like food and I like to eat in the evenings!!
By the way, I put on the stone after my divorce.

Put a lock on the fridge door, and give the key to someone else.

eat less fattening foods like fruits.

If you always reach for a certain type of food when you are upset then try not to have huge amounts of it in t he house - if I am angry or sad I gorge on anything sweet - so I dont have a stockpile of biscuits or chocolate in the store cupboards. Yes I have a packet of biscuits and yes a bit of chocolate for cooking but as there isnt a lot of either I cant go over the top when I am raging. I also find a cup of low calorie choc drink helps. Hope you find something that helps you.

if i feel like a binge I will go on the computer or play on the wii and then the time goes fast and you dont think about food anymore

Always have celery in the fridge to munch on. It doesn't matter how much of it you eat as there are hardly any calories in it. Actually you burn off more calories digesting it than there is in it.
