Remember, as with any other addiction. Comfort eating needs to be replaced with another comfort activity. To get ideas, think about the things you loved to do as a child and try doing them. You just may be surprised how much you enjoy them again.
Need an idea? Here's a few:
Listen to music
Dance
Go out and explore (go for a walk)
Pick up a hair brush and do some lip syncing
Take a bubble bath
Take a nap
Go people watching at the park
Read a good book
Draw a Picture
Call a friend
Play a Video Game
In other words, do something for yourself, simply for your personal enjoyment. Isn't that what food has been doing for you? Take time for yourself doing something healthier than eating that piece of chocolate cake.
