Eating in moderation

Today's Tip: 

 HELP TO STOP BINGE EATING

Binge eating is when a person eats a large amount of food in a short
period of time, two or more times per week and feels out of control.
If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. According to a recent
study, binge eating is more common than previously thought. But there
is hope. Breathing and relaxation exercises, and acknowledging binge
trigger feelings can be helpful in reducing the length of an episode.
Breaking the cycle of binge eating takes time and patience; and for
some people, getting help from a registered dietitian and/or licensed
psychologist with experience in disordered eating is recommended.
