What Can I Do About a Food Addiction?

Published December 12, 2013

Question by Lisa k: What can I do about a food addiction?
I feel an addicted feeling to eating alot of junky foods or even healthy food in very large portions. I eat even way after I am full. If I stop eating I feel sad, empty, or depressed. When I stop eating what I am addicted to I feel the same withdrawl symptoms as if I was doing drugs.
I have tried to find numerous things to take the place of food. But there is nothing that takes the place of the wonderful tastes of food! Is there even such a thing as a food addiction? What can I do about this? I’m gaining too much weight no matter how much I excersize
