Been there, done that. When I'm tired at work or don't want to be there or have a very long day or a daunting project, then I tend to eat. It's like a compensation or a reward for myself. This part of this day sucks, so I'll make up for it by eating. Not sure why eating shitty, unsatisfying junk food is a "reward" in my brain, but somehow it is.
Like GC said, apples should accomplish the same thing, but there's something about that vending machine junk or the soda that worms its way into my psyche as a reward or compensation for a tough day.
