Ep #304: The #1 Reason Why People Don’t Stop Binge Eating

Kandace was like so many people who binge eat.   She felt like she was out of control and couldn’t stop herself from eating so much, she believed that there was something wrong with her and that this was just how she would be forever, and her excessive eating negatively impacted herself and her life in so many ways.   For years, she tried diet after diet to try and get herself to eat better but it never worked.   It wasn’t until she worked on her mind that everything changed for her.   Now, she thinks like such a different person. She thinks differently about herself, her body, food, and because she does, her relationship with them has changed immensely.   She is a such different person now compared to who she was last year when she began The Stop Binge Eating Program.   And when you listen to today’s episode,you’re going to hear all about it. You’re going to hear about her first experience with Weight Watchers, what it was like for her when she was bingeing, what was the most impactful thing she did that stopped her binge eating, and what she and her life are like now.   She is such an inspiration and I hope that if you’re feeling doubt about yourself and what you’re capable of, that she can help you believe in yourself even just a little bit more.   Interested in working with me?
