Breaking Free from Comfort Eating's Embrace
Struggling with the invisible strings that tie your emotions to your eating habits? You're not alone, and I'm here to help unravel that knot. Join me, Dr. Tammy, on Psychologist Say, where we delve into emotional eating—the kind of eating that sneaks up on you when stress knocks on your door. This episode peels back the layers of why we reach for that extra cookie or slice of pizza when we're not necessarily hungry; it's about understanding the difference between eating because your body needs fuel and eating to soothe your soul. Let's explore how the chaos of the pandemic has tipped the scales toward increased emotional eating and substance use, and I'll share strategies for recognizing the true nature of your hunger.
Now, if you're looking for ways to manage your emotional eating and consider the role of your weight, you're in the right place. Breaking the cycle of reaching for comfort foods takes more than just willpower—it's about creating an environment that encourages healthier choices and learning to sit with your emotions rather than snacking on them. I'll provide guidance on getting comfortable with natural hunger cues and taking control of the food that surrounds you at home. Remember, it's not about denying yourself pleasure or going on a strict diet; it's about a healthier relationship with food and, ultimately, with yourself. Let's take that first step towards a balanced lifestyle together.
