I used to do it all the time. The later part of my teenage years we went through a ton of stress and issues, so I did what my mother did before me, which was turn to food for comfort. That toxic mindset took me on a journey of self loathing and being just shy of 300lbs.

After a few years, I consulted with my then girlfriend at the time and we got on a plan to improve myself and my outlook on life. Couple that with a realization that food was not the answer, I am currently very healthy now, at about 188lbs, and I look/feel so much better. My entire outlook on life has changed since I've met my wife all those years ago, and I am a better man, and soon to be father because of it.

Comfort eating can lead to eating disorders and **** can get ugly really fast. Sometimes we watch shows like My 600lb Life and while I've never been that heavy, I can understand why food has become a source to block away things instead of facing them. I generally fast for 16-23 hours a day at a time to keep my weight in check.

I love cooking and often try new recipes. I even bought new disposal for food waste, I've checked reviews on bestsinkdisposal before purchasing. Today I made furikake with broccoli, served with cucumber salad and shrimp crackers. It is healthy and delicious!
