emotional eating

I never had an eating disorder or anything of that nature but I think like many folks I have learned over the years that food can make you feel better if you're feeling sad.

I had a little encounter with my ex-husband earlier today which left me grumpy and when I got home my thoughts immediately turned to the fried shrimp special at the seafood joint down on Broadway. Well that was out of the question so I made myself some guacamole instead. I felt better after eating it. I think legitimate hunger had something to do with my mood as I hadn't eaten since very early in the morning. So all's well that ends well.
