I used to be a huge emotional eater. I'd keep eating and eating even though I was already full just because I'd had a bad day, was stressed, bored.. etc. This was hugely sabotaging my diet since every week or two I'd end up cheating without being able to really stop myself. Then around february I got the Dr. Phil diet book. Now, I know a lot of people dont like him, but I was desperate to understand what the hell I was doing.

I read the book and let it sink in for about a month.. then one day I had a revelation and it hasnt been tough to stick to the diet since then at all. Not to stay I've been perfect, but at least I'm not eating to satisfy my emotions anymore. Now if only the scale would move!

Anyway, this is what helped me get over my emotional eating, maybe the Dr. Phil book or something like it will help you too.

Good luck
