Emotional eating is a hoax. It may been something emotional that got you started on over eating in the first place and it may be partially due to bad habits that you continue eating too much, but the single biggest reason why we are all so overweight is North America is because we are addicted to processed, high-glycemic carbohydrates.

STOP SPIKING YOUR BLOOD SUGAR!
You have been on a blood sugar roller coaster for far too long. You eat a high sugar meal (all the whites/wheats), which spikes your blood sugar and for a short time you become hyperglycemic (high blood sugar).
Then you come down off this high and your body drops into a low blood sugar range called hypoglycemia. When this happens, your brain freaks out and starts to panic because it needs glucose (sugar) to function and so it starts screaming at you to eat more sugar.
When this happens, you feel terrible and it has nothing to do with emotional eating. You get cranky, feel faint, get headaches and feel like you are going to starve. But take a deep breath, because this is just your brain having a temper tantrum.
Remember when your child threw himself or herself down on the floor and started kicking his or her feet and screaming and crying. It's exactly the same thing. Your brain is throwing a hissy fit. It's behaving like a spoiled child.
But, just like with parenting, each and every time your child behaves this way, you have a choice as to how you will respond to your child, or in this case, respond to your brain's demand for glucose. Will you give it everything it seems to want, even if it means your child will grow up to be a spoiled rotten brat or will you give that child what he or she needs, which can sometimes be tough love and discipline.
Now, you don't want to completely ignore your brain, like you might a naughty child, but you also don't have to come running and give in to every single demand.
We all know that some parents truly don't understand or accept this phenomenon and they give into the child's every whim, but there are enough parents out there who do understand this reality that they are able to raise their children to become relatively well-balanced adults.
The point is, if you see hyperphagia for what it is, which is not emotional eating at all, but rather a scientific problem, then you will be able to control your unruly toddler or your unruly brain and as a result you will be able to tackle the largest factor that is keeping you fat.

TOUGH LOVE AND DISCIPLINE
When your brain gets grumpy because it has dropped into the low glycemic range and begins to throws its daily, sometimes hourly, hissy fit or temper tantrum, you have the choice to give it more sugar or you can choose to give it protein and complex carbohydrates.
If you give it more sugar, you just create the conditions for another hissy fit in a couple of hours, when you drop into the low blood sugar range again, but if you give it protein and complex carbohydrates, then you will not spike your blood sugar, and you will not create the conditions for another temper tantrum in two or three hours.
You see, the brain does not care where the sugar comes from and all foods have some sugar. Your brain doesn't need a lot to be happy and it doesn't need the sugar to be simple or highly processed. If you give your body some protein or complex carbohydrates, your brain will be just as happy as if you gave it a double fudge, banana split sundae with caramel, nuts and colored sprinkles. Unlike children, your brain, in fact, likes broccoli and spinach.
IF YOU CAN SURVIVE WITHOUT HIGH-GLYCEMIC CARBOHRDRATES FOR 2-4 WEEKS, YOU WILL BREAK YOUR CARBS ADDICTION AND THEN EATING WILL NO LONGER FEEL LIKE SUCH AN EMERGENCY.
Once you have broken the addiction, you can begin to investigate, calmly, all the things you need to do to lose weight forever, but for as long as you are addicted to carbs, you will never stop yoyo dieting.
