Why does food confort us when we are upset?

I am having a really shitty day! There is no other way to say it. I should have just stayed in bed but nevertheless I have to work so that was not an option! So I get here moaning and groaning and just thought you just have half a day we are helping the hungry by working the food bank. So you would be helping other's which would make me feel better. Will it I sure hope so. Now don't get me wrong I very grateful that I have the ability to do this and do not begrudge any help that I can give but this is not the day for it.

Everyone her at work decided to make some sort of dessert or goodies to celebrate our service project. Really as if I need any excuse to eat crap. There are brownies upstairs that are to die for. Now lets face it eating one of those moist gooey chocolate brownies is not going to make me feel better it will probably make me feel worse but I hear it calling me all the way across the building. Damn you brownie!

Why is it when things are not going our way or we just want to punch something food seems to be some sort of comfort. Because when you really look at if food is your enemy not your friend. It makes you feel better for those couple of minutes but the guilt that comes after just ends up making you eat more and the vicious cycle continues or at least it has for me. This cycle has been on replay for the last 20 years in my life. So I have decided to break that cycle for good! Don't get me wrong I hear those damn brownies but they won't end up on my butt I can promise you that.

Well that is all I have today my angry self bids you good day!

Till Tomorrow,
H
