At the age of twenty-one, I lost a bunch of weight using a strict eating plan, but the weight loss went straight to my head.

I became obsessed with my body and couldn’t get enough “hits” from feeling and looking thin.
I loved it when people noticed and made comments. (Since I finally fit into normal-size clothes, so I would change outfits three times a day!)

Without excess food to escape my emotions, I would stuff myself with other distractions: self-obsession, shopping for clothes, and men.

The end result? I eventually felt so uncomfortable in my own skin that I started craving my old friend and comfort - food.

Truth is, at that time, my efforts to lose weight came from the outside (diets, gyms, pills, even therapy and programs focused on food and weight loss). None of these things were going to save me.

Food was not my problem, and neither was weight. These were just symptoms of my problem. I had to admit this deep in my heart. I had proved it over and over again through my many failures.

Addressing the root causes of emotional eating the most direct route to losing weight in a sustainable way, but it also ensures that you’ll be happy when you do.

I’d love to hear about your experience.

In our fast-paced world, we love our food quick, convenient, and delicious. If it’s “to-go,” even better! 👍🏻

But for emotional eaters, grabbing food from a box or bag doesn’t end until every last crumb is gone. We struggle to stop once we start. The easier the access, the more we crave it. 😬

Do yourself a favor: skip the middle aisles of the grocery store. Avoid the cookies, chips, popcorn, and snack boxes. 🍪🍿

Instead, fill your cart with fresh fruits and produce. 🫐🥑 Eat foods that are in season or visit your local farmer’s market.

☀ Choose the kinds of foods that let you control portions and stay within your three daily meals. Don’t be tempted by the bags or the boxes.

Mindful eating is about awareness.

Slow down. Chew with intention.
Tune into your body’s hunger and fullness cues. Pay attention to how food makes you feel—physically and emotionally.

The more you listen, the more your body will guide you toward what it truly needs.

Would you say you eat mindfully or on autopilot? Let me know in the comments!

Do you turn to food when your emotions feel unheard or invalidated in a relationship?

Emotional eating often stems from seeking comfort, but could it also be a sign of unmet emotional needs?

When we don’t receive the validation we crave from others, we may unconsciously fill that void with food.

Instead of relying on external validation—or emotional eating—how can we nurture ourselves in healthier ways?

Let’s talk! Have you noticed a connection between your relationships and your eating habits?
