How to stop emotional eating? Please help?

[Anonymous]

Please help :( I'm on a desperate weight loss regime, water fasting for 16 days to lose 8 kgs temporarily for my best friend's wedding. I basically was meant to start 5 days ago but I have in to eating. I wasn't even hungry just emotionally bored/stressed/upset.
I'm really disappointed in myself :( after 16 days I will resume healthy dieting but I just need to fit in the dress. Help me please? I tend to eat when I'm sad or stressed only

u have to find something else to do besides eat. go for a run, or walk. workout, do soemthing that gets u out of the house and keeps u busy. if ur not near food, u won't eat it. or if u do decide to eat make a healthier choice. like celery or carots or fruits

Thank you for your opinion :) I've been trying to do that but it's easier said than done :(((( but I always always regret it after eating the first mouthful

Have you been getting enough sleep? QUALITY sleep.

Do you workout? It helps with any stress you may have after a quick 45 min workout. Make yourself break a sweat!
