You are listening to the Life Coach School Podcast with Brook Castillo episode number 452.

Welcome to the Life Coach School Podcast, where it's all about real clients, real problems, and real coaching.

And now your host, Master Coaching Structure, Brook Castillo.

Hello, my friends. I am so excited to share this podcast with you today. I have been doing a lot of coaching with all ya'alls on your weight and overeating and your frustration with eating too much food.

And so I decided to go into my Get Coach Scholars program and pull out some parts of the course that I taught in there called Stop overeating.

And I pulled on a video that's called Why We Eat Too Much that goes into some of the reasons why we overeat.

And it's because of over desire for food, which I think is really a fascinating way to explore what's going on with us mentally.

And also over hunger that is caused by our current food supply and options in our hormones.

So for those of you who are thinking about focusing on eating less and feeling more in the next year, I think you'll really enjoy this podcast.

For those of you who are interested in taking my entire course on Stop overeating, it is a workshop that is inside of Get Coached.

So who overeats? Do you know why? Keep your hand up if you know why. Everybody knows why. Why do you overeat?

You're bored. Okay. So you do it for entertainment value. Okay. Who else? Someone else give me a different answer. Yeah. Distraction. Okay. Overwhelmed. Yeah.

Stress. Yeah. Pleasure. Because you enjoy it. I just like the taste. I just like food. That's what I hear all the time. Just like food. Okay.

Understanding and we're going to talk about those reasons. Now there are personal reasons. There are cultural reasons. I mean, I mean, if you want to create an environment for overeating, this is how you do it.

Basically what we've done in the world, right? We have been taught and encouraged to overeat culturally, psychologically, neurobiologically and hormonally.

Every single way that we can be taught to overeat, we are in every area. It's crazy. Like if you look at it culturally, the last 30 years, we've had an increase of obesity 30%.

Now I, I'm not even giving you all of the stats on obesity because I know you've heard them all before. But like seriously think about that. This is a huge increase.

Here's the reason the low fat diet, they call it the equivalent of mass murder. It's that crazy. This idea that the low fat diet has contributed to obesity, which of course, obesity leads to all sorts of crazy death things. Right? In our environment.

It sounds like such an innocent nice little thing. Snacking.

One of my clients said recently, I have to remember it's like nothing's worth snacking over. Just having the idea that I never snack for any reason.

Snacking is never necessary. Snacking is always an entertainment event.
