Like for me I notice the urge comes up when i'm feeling rejected by girls or have approached and it hasn't gone well or if i'm feeling lonely. The interesting thing is that using the weight loss program my urge has gone down alot, I feel some of the stuff that made me want to eat also made me want to look at porn.

That makes a lot of sense. Honestly, I've never really been an emotional person in the sense that I make a huge effort to look into my thoughts and feelings too much in the past. Usually I would just accept whatever happens and move on without even reflecting on the situation. I think you're right that there are certain emotions that are being brought to the surface.
I've noticed that this program is forcing me to dig deeper into myself to figure out where I've gone wrong and what I need to do in order to be better in the future. Hopefully by the end of the program I'll have this under control and have found a way to beat this once and for all as this is one of my bigger hurdles that I want to get over with the help of the program.
The last few days have been great for me though. Even though I've been lazy the last few months in terms of working out, I've been more active in other aspects. Confidence is pretty high right now, and my body language has been getting a lot better (standing up straighter, walking slower, and actually looking people in the eye more).
