Emotional Eating
Emotional eating is something that many of us do—we’re stressed, we’re feeling badly, or, maybe we don’t know why just then that we’re doing it—but we find something, usually quickly, to munch on or to swallow. We eat, impulsively at first, and then more and more in response to something other than simple hunger. Dr. Spiegel shows you how you can slam the refrigerator door on this destructive behavior.
