Check out the group called emotional eating. All the threads at top of group have helpful information.
I've been working on this recently and have had success using positive affirmations, recognizing my stress/ negative emotions and finding more positive ways to cope.
It has been a process for me to change but it has been getting better.

I'm sorry about your breakup.

Exercise is your friend.

In the long run eating to excess will create more unhappiness so try to address it asap.

Binge eating is really hard to handle on your own. I say try a meeting of over eaters anonymous if it get really out of hand. Awesome, supportive non threatening people going through the same as you. It's an addiction so sometimes what we know we should do, grab fruit and exercise, isn't what we will do in a moment of emotional pain. Pain is very hard to walk through alone. The fact is that it hurts and we don't want to hurt. It's so very uncomfortable so sugar and fat and munching numbs us, but only in the moment we are doing it. Then in the end, not only are we hurting, but have guilt, shame and anxiety about gaining weight on top of it. I know it seems crazy to go to a meeting, but man is it nice to talk to people doing exactly what you are doing, or should say did and who have come through the other side. It's hope and encouragement that this will pass, you can face life on its own terms and even grow stronger in the process. What do you have to lose? It's free and you can always go back to other methods if it doesn't help.
