Ep # 58: Overcoming Emotional Eating

Weight Loss Doesn't Have to Suck

Emotional eating is one of the biggest blocks to weight loss.
Sure, in the moment, it feels like a cozy blanket, but in the long run, it just adds more to our plate, pun intended.

Turning to food to shove down our emotions is like putting a band-aid on a broken bone. It doesn't fix anything; it just covers it up. And that can lead to all sorts of issues like weight gain, feeling lousy about ourselves, and just feeling stuck.

But here's the thing: emotions are there for a reason. They're like little messengers trying to tell us something important. When we shove them down with food, we miss out on what they're trying to say.

Getting a grip on emotional eating means getting cozy with our feelings. It's not always easy, but it's worth it. Instead of scarfing down a tub of ice cream when we're stressed, we can find more productive ways to deal.

If emotional eating is a struggle for you, you're not alone. On today's episode, I'm sharing some of my best strategies to help you kick emotional eating to the curb.
