Addicted to Comfort Food? Seeking Advice on Avoiding Comfort Foods and Fighting the Urge to seek Comfort Foods.

I've been going through a lot of change recently, emotionally and mentally.

However, physically I've been struggling. I take a 30 minute bike ride a day and take about 6,700-12,000 steps a day with my current job because I'm either standing or walking around for hours.

The problem I'm having is I've always had a long list of comfort foods and when I don't have access to comfort foods I'll tend to eat larger portions of normal foods to compensate.

I'm looking for general advice about dieting around depression mostly. I've been using a fitness app lately and one most days I either end with 120-300 calories saved or an embarrassing intake. Some days just feel harder than other, and I'm hoping starting counseling soon will help me balance things out but I'm looking for advice or support when it comes to dieting and making sure my mental stress doesn't allow me to comfort it.

Tl;dr - How do I avoid comforting eating or feeling the urge to comfort eat?
