I'm a recent clean eating recruit and recovering stress-eater, so I have no tips so far. I just want to thank you for writing such a helpful, entertaining, insightful blog. I'm adding you to my Reader, and I'm really looking forward to reading more. Hi, I just found your blog today! I’m a recent clean eating recruit and recovering stress-eater, so I have no tips so far.

For me...it's ALL about emotions..really. or being tired. The one thing that I've noticed recently is I go through this process 1. I get a 'hunger' message 2. I ask myself 'are you really hungry?' 3. Yes--eat No--ask myself the follwing a. are you stressed? b. are you tired? c. are you lonely? d. are you thirsty? 4. Then I SIT with the emotion/feeling. 'Michelle, you are stressed right now. That's ok. It's crazy right now, but eating ice cream is only going to take it away for a bit. So..let's make a list, pause for a bit, have a glass of water' Sitting w/ my emotions helps me so much. ~Mish Great post. For me…it’s ALL about emotions..really. or being tired.

The one thing that I’ve noticed recently is I go through this process

1. I get a ‘hunger’ message
2. I ask myself ‘are you really hungry?’
3. Yes–eat No–ask myself the follwing
a. are you stressed?
b. are you tired?
c. are you lonely?
d. are you thirsty?
4. Then I SIT with the emotion/feeling. ‘Michelle, you are stressed right now. That’s ok. It’s crazy right now, but eating ice cream is only going to take it away for a bit. So..let’s make a list, pause for a bit, have a glass of water’

Sitting w/ my emotions helps me so much.

Thanks so much for reading! I know what you mean. Life has a way of turning you inside out and upside down sometimes. I'm going through a rough patch now which is why I wrote the article. But as the old saying goes.... "this too shall pass". I'm so glad you enjoyed the article! Take care, Tiffany Hi Gracie!

Life has been kind of stressful for me lately, and I am *definitely* a stress/emotional eater. And the thing is - I rarely binge on junk food. I just eat and eat and eat tons of HEALTHY food. Like you said, it's very possible to gain weight while eating clean/healthy foods (I can't say I'm an entirely *clean* eater...yet :)). I love the tips you gave - especially things to do to distract yourself. I need to start implementing those things because I usually just say "what the heck" and go with the stress eating. And then that just leads to MORE stress! So, like I said, thanks so much for this post :) Loved it! Wow, this post is exactly what I needed right now.

While I do eat clean, portion control is often my challenge. Especially when stressed. Thank for contributing to the article! Thanks Heather!

Just takes finding different ways of coping with stress. It may take some time, but it can be done. :) Great article, and you’re so right, even copious amounts of “clean eats” can be disastrous.
