When you get down to the root cause of why you're eating other than to nourish your body, odds are you're eating to either comfort, reward, or cope. These are the three horsemen of overeating. 

When you start thinking differently about food and learning to treat it more as fuel, you start to feel differently about it too. This way, smaller amounts become much more satisfying than what you're used to.

In today's episode, we'll cover how you can start looking at food as fuel instead of an emotional band-aid. I'll also discuss why education about nutrition doesn't help the majority of people with weight loss.

What You'll Learn:

  • The three horsemen of overeating and how to become aware of them 
  • The good food vs. bad food debate
  • The benefits of making small changes to what you eat
  • Why fear-mongering doesn't help people with weight loss
  • The inverse relationship between nutritional information and losing weight
  • The difference between enjoying eating and enjoying food
  • You don't need a super strict diet to lose weight
  • How to change your mindset about food
