EPISODE 63: The Truth About Emotional Eating


Listen Later

As much as we'd like to think that we're completely rational beings in our approach to and view of the world, the reality is that we're wildly emotional creatures as well. Emotions are useful. They help us survive and give zest to our lives, but when we allow them to completely take the wheel, we can find ourselves on the road to disaster.

Join Rog Law and me as we look at the roots of emotional eating and arm you with the necessary mindset shifts to get out of your own way and on the path to fat loss success.

Topics discussed:

  • Why you don't actually have a food problem and what you should be focusing on instead.
  • How the diet industry actively plays into your emotions in order to make you feel bad about yourself (to sell you their products).
  • How focusing on your weight can keep old, emotionally charged stories about not being 'good enough' alive.
  • 5 action steps that you can take TODAY to begin your walk on the path to food freedom.
