Exectly, whay you say. Thank you very much michelle 😘😘😘😘

[@davidblake8612]

I agree with most of this but I don't agree with the bit about us all having an inbuilt instinctive way to eat. I have 2 kids. One only eats when he's quite hungry. The other eats all the time (or when we let him). One hardly thinks about food, one thinks about food all the time. And they have been like this since they were babies.

[@MichelleMayMD]

Children vary in their interest in food so that sounds instinctive to me!

This is a wonderful way to approach weight loss !

OA is a joke, they ban and restrict certain foods and claim that they are not in control

@@jasonrios3120 uts ur choice to choose what u eat not oas choice. Sorry u had this experience

[@wendym2544]

This talk is not informative. If you want to be a healthy weight, do the following. Work on being happy and involved in life. Work on your emotional and mental health. Eat primarily a whole food diet. Very little processed food. Exercise a few days a week with a bit of some activity you enjoy and throw in a little weight lifting here and there.

Wendy I guess you never experienced any eating disorders, sometimes things are not as easy as you think

[@wendym2544]

@@beriha3618 This video is about yo-yo dieting, not about people with true eating disorders. I guess you could consider yo-yo dieting a kind of eating. But compared to a true eating disorder, it really isn't. IMHO.

[@candyc.3163]

This video is extremely informative to me. It’s opened a whole new way of thinking. That aha moment. Your suggestions are all good but only after I’ve understood why I overeat in the first place. Thanks Michelle May.

[@wendym2544]

@@candyc.3163 I'm glad you found it so helpful. If you're okay telling me, why did/do you overeat? Either way, keep going!

[@candyc.3163]

@@wendym2544I have had the problem of overeating for any reason other than being hungry. Boredom, stress, anxiety. When I ask myself if I’m hungry and the answer is no then I need to figure out what’s really bothering me.

2018 and women are so messed up.

[@luckyjoekohn]

this is silly, just eat whole foods, plant based. Eat in abundance. Get out of the caffeine, refined sugar cycle. When you eat nutritiously dense food, you will not crave junk. There is no information in this talk, just more mumbo jumbo on diets.

[@MelanieSakowski]

Ah but there's big psychological implications behind why people fail to make nutritious choices: it's not a lack of education on good food.

[@beverlystraus9300]

Joe, I am on a whole food plant based diet for nearly a year and my binges have decreased substantially; however, I still experience intermittent binging that I know are truly based on psychological / emotional issues. Granted, being off processed foods has helped reduced my binges but, unfortuneately, it's not a cure-all because of various emotional issues.

[@lavenderteal8485]

Joe Kohn please tell that to all the raw vegans who gain weight and still have eating disorders. Plant based diet doesn't magically clear the psychological issues that push people to food. Yes reducing processed foods can help but it doesn't take away the emotional reasons why people eat.

[@leferayala5228]

Why didn't I think of this! So easy!

[@mindfuleats4517]

When you eat mindfully you tend to gravitate towards foods that nourish you. It comes from an inner wisdom. It's not an external rule imposed from someone else, so it lasts

[@HolisticDetective]

Wow, that was very sensible, and completely useless. Nothing at all about *how* to magically change your addictive relationship with food. Also, she's still overweight, so I'm not convinced she's really fixed her own relationship with food either.

[@dizzylizard444]

In what way is she overweight??

[@MelanieSakowski]

Where's the love button for this! Exactly, she is NOT overweight!

[@IlvaIgnatovica]

This is just a short intro for the book she wrote - Eat what you love, love what you eat. There you can find a deeper explanation about different relationships people have with food and how to have a healthy one :)

[@mmaantj]

She looks healthy to me tho?
