I also eat when i'm bored, i think its just something i got used to doing, especially after gaining weight and feeling too paniky to go out.
What i am doing whilst on th CD is i am keeping a
food/mood diary and i am writing down whenever i feel like eating and the time. I then look at it and try to find a way to prevent the cause of that feeling. I also see a pshycholgist since i had a breakdown and she helps me to identify triggers and try ways to react to them more positively.
For example the last time i wanted to eat was when i finished my revision and i wanted to go home and treat myself to someing like takeaway, as a reward for doing my revision. I wasnt hungry at all though. So now what i do is a treat myself to something like a nice bubble bath or a movie.
I will ask my psyc for any tips on boredom eating and post them here if you like.
Sorry for babling on there
. I hope you you can try to break the habit of boredom eating. But it is good that you just ate the tuna and didnt go overboard with junk food, i would have probably done that.
Ihope you have a good day xx
