Stress Eating!!

I am trying to control myself and not stress eat! Johnnycakes and I are having a string of bad luck. His car was stolen two weeks ago and we finally got it back two days ago (minus a car stereo but with minimal damage). Then, today we were getting ready to leave for three days at the beach and swing into a service station for a quick oil change and the mechanic breaks my car! It's not that simple but let's just say we're not going to the beach tonight and maybe not at all this weekend. I'm feeling like we've stepped into some bad cosmic energy.
I quit smoking a while back but I used to turn to cigarettes in stressful situations. Since that's not an option anymore I am thinking about junk food to comfort myself. Luckily, I haven't actually shoved anything in my face yet but it's tempting. I'm kind of thinking about McDonald's french fries and ice cream. I am going to try to control myself and not stuff food in my mouth. Do others stress eat? What do you eat? What do you do to quell cravings?
Sorry about no photos!

Good for you for quitting smoking. That sucks that the car was stolen, but at least you got it back.

I turn to watermelon... I find it to be a very good fill-in for junk food when I need to have good emotional binge!

I chew gum, sugarfree of course, it helps me last till dinner. But I do sneak in the occasional...ok ok, not so occasional, Dove chocolate bar. I cant resist them Dove bars, they put the darn things right next to the gum!!!
