A better way: A better way would be to work on the reasons for your "mental temptations to overeat." there are many avenues for this, from in-person groups like overeaters anonymous & tops (take off pounds sensibly), to online support like the gabriel method and amihungry.Com -- to personal counseling with eft tapping on the issues particular to you. Cognitive behavioral therapy may help also.
