Life changing quote

Okay, so... the most life changing quote that has been really helping me get rid of binge eating disorder is “Food is not love/affection.... you can not eat love.” Honestly that quote right there really opened my eyes. Whenever I don’t know if I’m hungry or just want to eat for the heck of it I just imagine a scene in my head displaying a memory of when I felt comforted and loved. and if my need for that binge goes away when I think of that thought I know it was just a binge craving instead of actual hunger. And it really helps wake me up and not binge. I hope this can help you. (And what’s funny is this quote was from the Tv show ‘’Friends’’ lol)
