A calorie is not just a calorie to me when…I have associated that particular food, person, mood, place, smell with “unconscious hypereating” (a term coined by Dr. Kessler in The End of Overeating). The circumstance itself has a history that triggers me. The Thanksgiving dinner’s worth of snacks while waiting for Thanksgiving dinner. Reading and munching, munching and reading. Superbowl parties and Cocktail hours. Standing in the kitchen late at night. Popcorn at the movies. Stress eating. Watching TV. Long car rides. Walking in the door from work.
