What to do?
Impulsive meals have been the reason I’ve been overweight all my life. I’m gluttonous, and I can’t control myself sometimes. But you won’t solve nerves and stress with a burger. So, why do we keep doing it?
You may find different answers. But, essentially, food provides a temporary sense of comfort and distraction. Also, when stressed, our body releases cortisol, which increases appetite and cravings for high-fat and sugary food.

If you didn’t make it, don’t eat it.
It requires a lot of discipline, but it works!
