Hi, I help people with this often in my hypnotherapy work. It comes from you learning to have the attachments of 'wanting and liking' for such foods. You need to break that.
There are some very simple psychological interventions that you can use in order to break the cycle. Seek a professional for precise health, you won't regret it! Obviously, as a hypnotherapist, I would suggest hypnotherapy...
Yet...
Give this a go! It is an adapted version of something known as 'Havening'. When you experience your problem, before you have eaten, to break the cycle give yourself a neurological distraction (a simple one, yet a clever one at that) and notice what happens. Repeat it 3-5times and your emotion should be resolved without needing to eat. It should take you to comfort and relaxation...
- Tap your collarbone with the opposite hand about ten times with rhythm.
- Hum out loud the first couple of lines of happy birthday.
- Count 1-10 out loud.
- Give yourself a hug in a way that you would find comforting and reassuring.
- Take a deep breath, hold it for just a moment, and let it go and let your body relax with the breath...
Let me know how it goes!
