It's definitely not about the food - just like any addiction isn't actually about the substance. We are all just here self medicating in hopes of feeling something, anything, that gives us a moment of joy. There's so much more to life than instant gratification. Great talk Tricia.

I am going to watch this a few more times! The part about taking the tiger (or lion?) out of the cage to give it a snack hoping not to get mauled in the process really illustrated how hard it is for an emotional eater to face down food each day without falling into self-medicating for pain, escape, or punishment.

Emotional eating is a form of self harm like cutting. Why isn't this in mainstream media.
@emotionaleatingcoach
@emotionaleatingcoach 7 ай бұрын
Interesting point. Emotional eating is quite broad and people do it for many reasons (being a behaviour). When we look into what cutting is, ONE reason people do it is to "feel". If their brain is numbing their body (possibly due to a trauma), then cutting can bring some feeling back. The thing to understand is that there's a benefit there. The same with Emotional Eating - it can make you feel something again when you're numb. But then again, it can also be used as a numbing agent when you want to distract from difficult thoughts. The point is, the reasons are varied and broad.

That's true. Often the over-eaters are overdoers and people pleasers. They tire themselves every time and got to release their emotions through something that they think will not bother other people, that is food. Thanks Tricia for the great talk! Will try to slow down and manage my stress level, and to learn to say no when my plate is full.

@@thoughtfulpro371 Are you implying that you think Tricia teaches control? If so, you couldn't be farther from the truth. OA may be great for some, but Tricia dives in so much deeper than that and teaches the tools necessary for true and total healing. Also, just because someone is thin and not overeating doesn't mean they're healthy, healed, or free; that's a dangerous implication and thought process. What Tricia teaches is true healing from our deepest core. Tricia has shown me and many others what true peace and freedom within this condition is and she lives it every day so she understands. Because of Tricia, I do have freedom. She has saved not only my life, but also so many others. I'm so beyond grateful for her and her being brave enough to utilize her struggles to help others.

People should try to have more compassion for other people's issues even if those things are easy for themselves. Everyone is different and has their own problems and capabilities.

I have come to believe it’s an eating disorder for me. I maintain enough self-control not to get overweight, but I feel crazy about food. Obsessive, I can’t find the balance! I don’t know if you could say I binge-I graze and never feel satisfied, but usually do it on foods that are healthy. Still, I can’t feel grossly full and not feel satisfied. Junk food is more satisfying, but still not completely. When I withhold myself from stuff I shouldn’t eat, or decrease portions, I feel so sad, literally depressed. I get angry at myself when I overeat and see the results, but then there’s a self-destructive element that comes in, and I think I self-harm with food. The good news is I’m working through my emotions and already seeing the result in my appetite. Praise God!

Having said that, I still struggle (some days more than others) with food during my eating window.

found Tricia Nelson's insights on the impact of emotional eating on weight loss to be both eye-opening and empowering. By recognizing the emotional triggers that lead us to overeat, we can start to unravel the complex patterns and develop alternative strategies for dealing with our emotions. This talk serves as a reminder that sustainable weight loss requires a comprehensive approach that encompasses both physical and emotional well-being.

In my years of wisdom I have recognised when I'm feeling my best weight, I like to celebrate. And then I get back on track. I've come to realise acceptance each day works best for me.

Your emphasis on understanding the emotional aspects of eating is refreshing. It's important to address the underlying issues rather than simply focusing on diets and restrictions.

“When I would diet, all the feelings I had stuffed with excess food would come to the surface and I didn’t have tools to deal with them”- this is so familiar in my family. Food gives that dopamine. It can satisfy the need to feel good and then obesity becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. More sugar to feel good. I eat the sugar mindlessly because I feel good. Then without even knowing, we no longer make the association of feeling to action. She’s spot on. We need new tools if we want a different result. Powerful messages in this talk!

I like this a lot. I know that EE is something I do, or have done. Tricia Nelson's work aligns with what I've learned and am practicing now. I finally threw out the diet mentality about 9 months ago, which is saying something since I've been on that roller coaster for more than 50 years. What's started working for me is a blend of several things: learning the principles of Intuitive Eating, which I discovered while researching motivation, which led me to Self-Determination Theory and then to I.E.; understanding the biological processes which get triggered by caloric reduction (the body's famine state response) and how that works to tank quick and sustained weight loss efforts and why I should chill about losing weight, but rather focus on healing; and now, addressing my emotional eating which has two parts: learning every day coping strategies as Tricia outlines, AND getting help to heal from trauma since many studies have shown folks with addiction issues are very often trauma survivors, as I am. It's so great to see all the work being done, and I wish that older members of my family had known of this way back when.

I've worked with many individuals struggling with emotional eating. It's crucial to delve into the underlying reasons for turning to food for comfort, whether it's to numb painful emotions, escape from stress, or even punish oneself.

As a nutritionist, I understand the challenges of emotional eating and its impact on overall health. It's important to recognize that our relationship with food is complex, influenced by both physiological and emotional factors. While it's crucial to focus on nourishing our bodies with balanced and nutritious meals, addressing the underlying emotional triggers is equally important. Finding healthier coping mechanisms and developing a positive relationship with food can lead to sustainable weight management and improved well-being.

Emotional eating is a coping tool. Some times it's not even about addiction but about having access to any comfort or distraction for a moment of self-love before tackling big feelings.
