Welcome to podcast number 43 with Glenn Mackintosh. Glenn is a psychologist who is incredibly passionate about eating, physical activity, weight and body image. He is the author of the best-selling ‘Thinsanity: 7 Steps to transform your mindset and say goodbye to dieting forever’ (purchase here: https://glennmackintosh.com/thinsanity/), the founder of Weight Management Psychology and his public work has seen him feature as on-screen psychologist for Network 10's ‘The Biggest Loser: Transformed’. In today’s episode, Glenn and I chat about how to overcome emotional eating. We start by discussing the differences between emotional eating, binge eating and disordered eating and what’s required for a diagnosis and treatment plan. We then focus on emotional eating and the reasons we eat when we’re emotional/bored/stressed. We chat about why women “give in” to their cravings in the moment despite knowing better, why we self-sabotage our healthy eating habits, how we can re-train our brain, how to conquer the “I have no will-power” frame of mind and we hear Glenn's top tips for overcoming emotional eating.
