I know from working with thousands of people that the hidden reasons you binge are all about how you feel. Let me tell you stories about two patients of mine who may be like you. "Francine", is single and 35 with a needy father. There was no question about what she was doing. By binging, she was stuffing down her feelings by stuffing her stomach. She didn't just binge on just any food, she binged on highly fattening, caloric-rich food--the exact kind that would defeat the weight loss goal she was so eager to achieve.
"Roxy", is 45 and has three children. She told me, "I was so mad at her, what else could I do?" Roxy is very smart, but in spite of my prompting and questioning, she could think of no other option but the binge. Her pattern of binging by stuffing down feelings by stuffing in food was so deeply ingrained in her mind that it short-circuited her common sense. She thought binging was the only way to dial down her anger and frustration and to rid herself of angry thoughts toward her daughter. The Three Causes of Binges...
All three of these are psychological motives for binging. You binge to satisfy psychological needs rather than biological needs(real hunger). That is what I call Emotional Eating. And if you binge, you engage in Emotional Eating. I can tell you from years of experience that it is virtually impossible to beat the emotional forces behind the binging on your own. Don't worry if you are not totally sure about this. I am. Understanding these emotions and their interaction is the essence of the MASTERINGFood program. Together we will unravel them so that you can find a way to break free from your entanglement with food, once and for all. >>Take a FREE TRIAL of MASTERINGFood right now. It takes just 15 minutes. |
