I can’t stop stress eating after my miscarriage

Has anyone else struggled with emotional eating after a miscarriage?

I have mild PCOD + thyroid issues and earlier when I was trying to conceive, I was super strict with diet for almost a year. Ironically, the month I actually got pregnant I had already started eating more junk and sweets again.

I miscarried earlier this year and since then my eating habits are honestly a mess. I crave sugar and junk constantly and I think a lot of it is emotional eating + stress. I’ve gained weight too and now every month while trying again I feel guilty like I’m ruining my chances. I do take my medicines regularly every single day, but my eating habits have become very inconsistent. Some days I eat healthy with salads and vegetables and other days I end up binge eating junk and sweets and feel really guilty afterward.

Would really like to know if anyone else experienced this after miscarriage and while TTC and how you dealt with it mentally.
