Spring Break #5 - Emotional Eating

04/28/23 • 4 min

Lose Weight. Live Life. Podcast

This week’s spring break focus is Emotional Eating. And we’re exploring all things emotional eating.

Now emotional eating isn’t bad. It’s very normal. It’s okay to get pleasure and comfort and other positive emotion from the food that we eat. We shouldn’t deny ourselves that pleasure if we’re happy with our weight and physically and emotionally healthy. But if our emotional eating is out of balance, if it’s contributing to us being unhappy with our weight and unhealthy, then we’re going to want to do understand why we’re emotional eating and find new ways of helping ourselves to feel better without turning to food.

To find out more about emotional eating and how it shows up for you, check out these three podcast episodes.

Spring Break #6 - Failing Your Way to Weight Loss Success

Hi everyone and welcome to our last Spring Break podcast focus. From next week we will be bringing you an array of new podcast episodes featuring original content and special guest interviews. Look out for upcoming interviews about ‘How to Feel Better’ with Ruth Kudzi and ‘Understanding Binge Eating’ with Jane Pilger.

So, for our last Spring Break focus I want to focus on the reasons why you want your weight loss journey to be a series of mini failures. Failing your way to weight loss success is the only way for you to learn the tools and strategies that will uniquely help you lose and then manage your weight for life. The alternative is trying to stick to a diet, and we all know that doesn’t help you figure out how you want to eat for your best life.

So, to find out more about failing your way to success and what you want that to look like for you, check out these three podcast episodes.

  • The problem with on/off track thinking
  • How you can move forward and not stay stuck
