Summary
OUTWEIGH: Do you struggle with binge eating, mindless eating, stress eating, or overeating in general?
Does it ever feel like food or sugar has a magnetic pull over you when you’re bored, sad, lonely, or stressed?
Have you ever wondered: “Am I addicted to sugar?”
If you’ve ever felt out-of-control when it comes to food and sugar, then this episode is for you!
We will cover:
- How you’re not really weak-willed, a self-sabotager, or a sugar addict – even if you THINK you are.
- Why and how your brain got ‘fired and wired’ to reach for sugar, and what your brain is REALLY telling you.
- How to relinquish the shame that comes alongside this (often shame-filled) topic.
All that and more…
