Free Guide: 10 Daily Tips to Stop Stress Eating.
Welcome to Episode 50 of the Emotional Eats Podcast!
In this solo episode, I share my personal story of nighttime snacking after a stressful day as a teacher. I share my habit of heading to the pantry after a hard day of working in search of that escape. I discuss eating in front of the TV, while scrolling and even in the bedroom.
I share the physical and emotional reasons behind late-night overeating, including stress, fatigue, blood sugar changes, emotions like boredom or loneliness, and habits/cravings.
Listen in to learn 10 powerful tips to help you curb the night time eating. It’s not just about willpower and discipline. There are real reasons you do it and I give practical steps to change your nighttime eating habit.
The urge to overeat at night often stems from unresolved emotions, habits, tiredness or a lack of nourishment earlier in the day. Stay tuned to get the steps you need to find out what you really need if it’s not food.
