I have been doing a lot of reading in emotional eating.
I've looked into how hormone imbalances can effect your hunger or eating.
When you are down, seritonin levels drop. When your seritonin levels drop, your brain tricks your body into thinking it is still hungry and craves sugars and unhealthy carbs.
Obviously we all want to be happy, but i never relaized how much emotions and hormones effect what i crave.
The list you posted, blzmax, is awesome and makes yo stop for a minute and think about why you are eating, or what you want to eat! I love it!
i find if you are still craving these items and whatnot, the supplement 5-htp helps raise your seritonin and take away those cravings!!
emotional eating sucks, I will be printing off the list you posted! thanks!
