[quote=Anonymous]I think one way past this is to promise yourself that you can have the cookie “tomorrow “ — IF you really still want the cookie. Then notice how you feel when you wake up the next day. For me, the issue is often desserts or chips. When I wake up in the morning, I usually don’t want whatever I was craving the evening before. When I don’t eat those things for a few days, the cravings go away. An issue for me is that I was forced to “clean my plate” as a kid, so, at some deep level, “finishing” food means that I’m “good” and won’t get punished. I still battle that kind of “noise” sometimes too. So I think it’s a combination of emotional “noise” and food noise — possibly connected with some starchy + fat/sugar/salt foods. As others have suggested, the food noise may quiet down if you eliminate certain types of foods, and therapy can help with the emotional stuff. [/quote]
