There are usually some clear signs of emotional eating...
Being extra hungry usually means there is something deeper going on.
It could be sleep, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, or maybe just feeling depressed. The first step is to actually stop and ask yourself "Am I actually hungry?"
If the answer is yes, go ahead and eat a full meal and track it.
If the answer is no, set a timer on your phone for 15 minutes. In that 15 minutes, grab a journal, write down what emotions you are dealing with. Chances are there are some things you are not addressing or don't want to look at. Write them down and recognize them. Once you do this, you can meditate for 10 minutes. Just sit there.
If after that 15 minutes you still want to have what you are craving, that's fine but track it.
Forgiveness and compassion are 2 principles to practice when emotional eating happens, because even if you get good at the exercise above, it WILL happen again. Don't beat yourself up. Address it and get back on track.
