Emotional Eating Reality

KAT RENTAS
About this episode

Emotional eating doesn’t necessarily mean you’re sitting on the couch, watching Netflix, eating an entire tub of ice cream. In fact, most of us who struggle with emotional eating tend to experience it in more subtle ways.

Which means, most of your emotional eating is likely unconscious to you now. It will feel difficult to separate which eating decisions are emotionally-driven and which one’s aren’t.

To eat healthy and lose weight permanently, you will need to build complete and total awareness of your emotions and how you’re eating in response to them now.

In this episode, I’m helping you redefine emotional eating in a way that allows you to build awareness of it now, so you can create the control with food that you want.

I’m also addressing the resistance many of you will experience to building awareness of your emotions and how you eat now.
