    I'm browsing this forum as an alternative to giving into my emotions and over eating.

    What helps me is physical exercise, walking, dancing, sports, gym, shopping, wndow shopping, games on internet, arts and crafts, pamper myself (mostly by myself like doing new nailpolish, massage, body lotion, cup of tea...but also sometimes manicure, bought massage etc.-instead of eating away my money in foods), counting, mindfulness exercieses, yoga, breathing, relaxing youtube videos, read a silly magazine (instead f eating something silly)
