Too Much on Her Plate with Dr. Melissa McCreery

149: What if I Don’t Want to Feel my Feelings and I Don’t Want to Overeat?

Melissa McCreery Episode 149

In this Q&A episode, I’m answering the question a listener submitted in my free Facebook group: “What if feeling my feelings is too uncomfortable? I know I’m an emotional eater, but I don’t want to feel my feelings, so how do I stop overeating?”

In this episode:

  • Myths about being uncomfortable
  • Perfectionism, numbing, overdoing, and overeating - and their link to discomfort
  • Why it’s valuable to feel uncomfortable sometimes, and how this helps you stop emotional eating and overeating
  • How to grow your capacity to be uncomfortable
