    Aside from the tips on eating more satiating foods like protein, healthy fats and fibre, the book Intuitive Eating has a section on strategies you can use to recognise, and stop the habit of using food as an emotional coping mechanism. I heard the 4th edition took out a bunch of stuff that extremely sensitive people found fatphobic, so I’d recommend going to the 3rd edition (you can find a free copy on anna’s archive)

    I don’t really hear about ‘god’s plan’ outside of the context of failure or loss, in which is it invoked in a consolatory and comforting manner. I think it has to do with the notion of discerning your vocation without forcing yourself into a role not suited for you, so it’s concerned with the use of an individual’s specific talents or ‘gifts’ to help the world, but not necessarily a ridged predestined plan. I’m sure more Calvinist communities might use it more in the predestination manner though…
