They (Oprah, Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, all health care professionals, etc.) are adamant that stress/ emotional eating is a big no no.
Untrue.
In my not-so-esteemed opinion, it's about limiting those stress/emotional eating instances to when it is utterly and completely necessary. Because whether we like to admit it or not, it happens.
On Monday I, for the first time, ate a pint of ice cream in one sitting. This may come as a surprise, as I believe it is customary for those of the female persuasion to resort to the cliche ice cream binge when having love woes and work troubles. Nope, not me. Until this week I had never, ever, ever fallen down that well.
Guess there's a first time for everything.
I can't even say with a straight face that the pint incident was a spontaneous, manic episode. Nope. The inhaling of the Ben & Jerry's was after multiple failed attempts to secure a Rolo McFlurry from McD's. Consider the pint a last resort.
And lemme tell ya. I do not regret it for a second and can justify it with every (increasing) ounce of my being.
On that day, I totally, utterly, wholely, and completely needed ice cream and lots of it.
