Just found this article
End emotional eating: No diet will ever work until we change our guilt-ridden relationship with food, says this top psychologist | Mail Online
And so much of it is true! Found it really interesting, as through doing LL i've learnt that comfort eating doesn't actually solve anything. A chocolate biscuit and a cup of tea, as lovely as they are won't solve my problems!
Found this paragraph sums it up really
'From the time our mother rewards us with a biscuit for being good, to the first time we invite someone for that proverbial 'cup of coffee' after a date or comfort eat after a break-up, food really is a metaphor for all that we feel and, many times, all that we can't quite say.'
But while i'm finding it easy to resist temptation whilst on LL as for me it's all or nothing, I know once I start eating again it'll be trickier to know when to stop.
So found this article interesting as it explores why we comfort eat and how we can beat it! Hope it helps somebody else too
