5 Signs You ONLY Need More Diet Tips to Finally Reach Your Ideal Weight

In episode number 275 of my free weight loss podcast I did cover several reasons why you feel depressed when you stop eating junk but one point that I failed to mention is very important. Here it is:

When you're caught in the ongoing cycle of emotional eating, binge eating, dieting, self-sabotage, yo-yo dieting, and on top of this when food is your crutch, it's your (unhealthy) coping mechanism in life, then when you take that food away and replace it with only healthy, high-octane fuel for your body, then all of those emotions you'd been trying to stuff down with food come roaring back to the surface.

Learn how to change your mindset, transform your current mindset into a weight loss mindset, and then you won't struggle to lose weight and keep it off! Then you won't complain of restrictive eating, you won't be struggling with binge eating, or emo...
