Diets are the Wrong Approach to Lose Weight.
Middletown, NJ--Stop emotional eating by understanding the difference between eating out of habit and eating emotional stress.
Yes, at any given time you can be eating from habit or eating from emotion. How can you tell the difference? And what is habitual eating?
Acording to Richard Kuhns, author of The Scale Conspiracy e-book, habitual eating is the habit of being at a certain place or time and eating. For instance, stopping by a Dunkin Doughnuts on the way to work every morning. Or coming home every afternoon, walking in the front door, through the living room, into the kitchen, and opening the refrigerator.
He goes on to point out that the best technique to handle eating out of habit is awareness. And that for most of history, overeating has been approached strictly from the habitual. Typical techniques to handle eating out of habit could be any of the following:
Diets
Putting forks down between bites
Counting Calories
Equivalents
Take a deep breadth before eating
In his e-book, The Scale Conspiracy, he reveals that only recently are we becoming aware of the eating emotional stress component which requires a completely different approach. The e-book suggests a logical approach:
First, simply assume that it's habitual and treat it accordingly with a very effective awareness technique that is done in seconds.
Secondly, if the temptation to eat is still present,he suggests the second step is the overcoming of emotional eating which is to learn to embrace the context of the emotion and stop diluting it with food.
Kuhns says, "Now comes the critical part. Being new to the concept of embracing emotion, it's normal for the individual to continue diluting the emotion with food. The goal is to move to a loving of self from which there is total acceptance (a building of self worth) at which point, the individual is able to say, 'I have stopped diluting the feeling of (whatever). I may be uncertain as to how to handle the situation, one thing I know is that I have stopped diluting my feelings.' And this is done one day at a time."
By reading the Scale Conspiracy E-book you will appreciate that a progressive approach to losing weight involves asking questions "What is missing here? Why are people not getting the results they are promised? It is clearly insane to keep using the same dieting techniques when the results are so poor. It's more important to gain a grasp on conquering emotional eating than it is to read the scale. Besides focusing on the scale doesn't empower you to be a better more enlightened person, whereas learning about how to handle emotional eating empowers you in all aspects of your life and you'll find that what you really want to eat is far more nutritious and less in quantity than ever before imagined.
