stress/anxiety and overeating
Does anyone else tend to overeat when they're stressing about meeting a deadline or other situations that result in feelings of anxiety??
Whenever I have a huge exam coming up (its midterms week right now ) or have a big deadline for a project, I get anxious, and use food for comfort. Its upsetting because I feel like I have no control over myself. Like I have this big exam tomorrow and after a good day (foodwise) I came home and just ate and ate and ate.....I'm soooo full, I know I'm eating waaaaaaay too many calories amd I feel like a cow .
What kind of things can I do to prevent this from happening? This is my 5th semester in college and its something I've struggled with from the beginning, although now its atkins food I'm eating too much of.
any suggestions??
