Behaviour Chain related eating is very similar to eating according to moods.
Behaviour Chains are frequent activities you pursue that always end in overeating.

If you have Behavioural Chains which lead you down the path of dietary destruction, break these Chains anywhere before they progress to the point of “no return”.
