So you want to know how to overcome emotional eating?
For over 25 years I’ve helped literally thousands of people get rid of most of the problems that plague them, but until last year I had totally failed with overeating. The techniques that had worked with depression, anxiety, anger, etc. were insufficient to help people stop their emotional eating.
But I finally figured out the true cause… and the cure… for emotional eating.
Here’s a clue:
Most of the people who try to lose weight know that they are emotional eating. They know that eating is their “drug of choice” whenever they want to escape negative emotions like loneliness, anxiety, feeling unlovable, and boredom.
What they don’t know is how to substitute something else for eating. Or even better, how to deal with negative feelings without having to go numb by eating.
I want you to think about this: If you eat when you are feeling negative emotions and you are not even hungry, you’ll have a hard time losing weight and keeping it off, am I correct?
Typically, people who are unable to lose weight never learn effective strategies for dealing with their emotions. I understand how this can happen. No one ever told you such strategies existed!
Luckily they do.
Let’s look at one of those strategies that will enable you to keep your emotions from making you eat.
What is this strategy that virtually no one knows about? It can be described in four steps.
Unfortunately, you may still keep eating for emotional eating without a few more tips.
