Avoiding Stress-Related Binge Eating

For some lucky people, stress is an appetite suppressant. For others, it triggers a date with doughnuts, ice cream, candy bars and Doritos.

If you fall into the latter category, there are steps you can take to avoid binge eating due to stress. After all, binge eating just makes us feel terrible - both physically and emotionally - in the end.

Here are the top tips from the American Diabetes Association:

•Learn the difference between hunger and appetite. Hunger is a physical sensation that tells you your body needs food. Appetite comes from the mind and is triggered by sensation and emotion.

•Identify the situations that cause you to overeat. Keep a diary of how much you eat and when, and what triggers you to eat more than you need.

•Establish regular eating patterns. Skipping meals or not eating enough leads to overeating later.

•Limit foods that tempt you. If it's chocolate, don't bring full-sized candy bars into the house; a "fun-sized" bar may satisfy the craving.

•Change the ways you cope with stress. Instead of eating, try talking with a supportive friend, walking or biking or taking a warm bath or shower to burn off some steam. Or do something you know lifts your mood: Listen to your favorite tunes, watch a movie or get a massage.
Stress can affect your blood glucose in several ways. Discuss your reactions to stress with your health care professional.

Zach Wahls' Iowa Speech for Gay Marriage Goes Viral [VIDEO]

AOL NEWS; Steven Hoffer; Feb 2, 2011

The Iowa House of Representatives approved a resolution on Tuesday that proposes a constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage in the state.

Hundreds of people packed the Iowa State House to debate the issue -- known as House Joint Resolution 6 -- which passed by a 62-37 vote.

One of the individuals who spoke was Zach Wahls, a University of Iowa engineering student and the child of a same-sex couple. His three-minute speech against the resolution is going viral across the Internet, much like Fort Worth, Texas, City Councilman Joel Burns' "It Gets Better" speech did during October.

During his statement, the 19-year-old equates his family to any other in Iowa and mentions that he owns a small business, is an Eagle Scout and scored in the 99th percentile on the ACT college aptitude test, and he even manages to not so subtly tell the House chairman that he'd be "very proud" to have a son like himself.

Check out footage of Wahls' inspired address:
