Hold vs Urge Surfin

Hold is a gentle urge interruption system for emotional eating and cravings. When an urge hits, you don't have to give in to autopilot or white-knuckle it. Hold will predict when the urge will hit and notify you. Open Hold, start a guided pause, and let the moment pass with you in control. HOW IT WORKS • Start a Hold the second a craving shows up • Ride out a calm, guided 10-minute pause — it keeps counting even if you put your phone down • Name what you're really feeling: stress, boredom, loneliness, tiredness, or reward • Choose a comfort swap and log what happened • Watch your patterns take shape over time WHY IT HELPS Most snacking isn't about hunger — it's about a feeling. Hold helps you notice the trigger, create a little space, and build a calmer relationship with food, one pause at a time. Regain self trust with food through Hold HOLD PLUS • Unlimited Holds, any time • Full exercise + danger window notification system • Weekly recap and charts • Personal risk map — your most vulnerable days and times • Trigger analysis and reset effectiveness • 8-week progress trends Hold Plus is an auto-renewing subscription (weekly or yearly) or a one-time lifetime purchase.
