This week\\u2019s spring break focus is Emotional Eating. And we\\u2019re exploring all things emotional eating.\\xa0


Now emotional eating isn\\u2019t bad. It\\u2019s very normal. It\\u2019s okay to get pleasure and comfort and other positive emotion from the food that we eat. We shouldn\\u2019t deny ourselves that pleasure if we\\u2019re happy with our weight and physically and emotionally healthy.
But if our emotional eating is out of balance, if it\\u2019s contributing to us being unhappy with our weight and unhealthy, then we\\u2019re going to want to do understand why we\\u2019re emotional eating and find new ways of helping ourselves to feel better without turning to food.
