How to stop comfort eating when the reason I do it is always there?

[ssd]

don't want to go into it, but the reason I comfort eat is emotional and its not something I can change, its circumstances I have to live with and get on with.

has anyone any advise to stop me or at least help me with comfort eating?

I get so down and stressed with my life and problems and I reach for rubbish food. I honestly can't see a way round the problem, its to do with isolation feelings and having no family support and seeing everyone I know with family round them. I just feel so lonely and down a lot of the time and I eat.
I can't move, pay babysitters or make my old mum 10 years younger, I can't solve my problems, I need to learn to live with them and stop eating crap when I'm down.

ANY WORDS OF ADVISE WOULD BE APPRECIATED. thanks.

DO NOT BUY RUBBISH FOOD.

Sorry to shout but if its not in the house, how can you eat it?

Do the right thing for your health and bosy, not your weight, forget about that if you can.

Be good to your body. Research healthy alternatives you can nibble on when you need to reach for something...slices of ham, apple, plain pop corn, carrot sticks.

I find writing a food diary helps, it lets me see when I overeat (when I'm on the phone for example, or pissed off, or really happy!) Allow yourself one treat a day, factor it into your diary and write down what it was.
