THE EMOTIONAL PART OF COMPULSIVE OVEREATING

Do You Eat Food or Do You Use It?

Do you find yourself using food as a barrier to feelings of loneliness, anger, frustration or worthlessness? 

Do you start one diet after another, hoping that this one will be the one that will work for you, and then end up gaining back all the weight you lost and even more? 

Do you unconsciously sabotage yourself because of fear of attention or success?

Self-deprivation and discipline are not the answers to your body/food dilemma. Overly restrictive eating habits create compulsiveness, bingeing, and the "yo-yo syndrome" of weight loss and gain, making maintenance of your ideal weight even more difficult.

The real and lasting answer lies in Loving Your Self Thin. By changing your thoughts and emotions about your body and food, you will be able to say:

"I KNOW I can have it, but I don't WANT it."

Using the Loving Your Self Thin guidelines and processes, you will learn how to heal the causes of overeating and/or bingeing, create positive motivation to reach your goals, manage your emotions in difficult situations, and love yourself at any size.

You will see how early parental directives and societal conditioning affect your thoughts and behavior about food, how sexual issues affect your body size, and how your inner voice can work against you in sabotaging your best diet efforts.

Best of all, you will learn how to love and accept yourself more the way you are right now, create greater self-esteem, and change the underlying factors that prevent you from having the body you want.

For most dieters, food is seen as the enemy...

FOOD IS NOT THE PROBLEM. Food is healthful and delicious and is meant to be enjoyed. But do you eat food or do you USE it? If you use food for any other reason than to fuel your body and satisfy hunger, then you are using food for things that it is not meant to solve. The problem is your inability to deal with life's stresses and your own negative emotions without using food to attempt to solve them.
