Have you ever found yourself grabbing for something to eat?Sometimes it doesn’t even matter what it is, or you might not even be aware of it until you’re in the middle of a box of cookies or you realize you’re eating with your hands out of a Tupperware bowl in front of the fridge. What’s happening? Step back and think about it. Are you stressed? Stress has a funny way of messing with you. Subconsciously our brain tells us that food will ease the stress. But does it really? Does a ½ gallon ice-cream make the deadline less stressful? What about that unruly teenager or the looming bills in front of you? Let me tell if it worked I’d have had a stressless life. I venture to guess food hasn’t gotten rid of your stress either.

Did you think that when you raised the kids, had a successful career, and moved into retirement that life would be so much easier? That all the stress of managing a household and juggling a career would finally be over? Wrong. Moving into your 50 plus years brings on a whole new set of stressors. Retirement, financial, aging parents, illnesses, menopause to name a few. A whole new set of reason to see if food will work better this round. If you couldn’t eat stress away in your younger years what makes you think it will work now? In fact, it might even be worse as our hormones are changing, maybe a little more sedentary, metabolism or moving is just more difficult. That ½ gallon of stress-cream might stick around a little longer now. How does that affect your stress level? It certainly doesn’t reduce stress; in fact, it magnifies it. this week Haute’ mama talks about Stress eating. Click the linkbelow to listen to the podcast.
