Re: Re: I need to stop overeating

[Guest guest]

Thank you. I keep trying to figure out why I can't stop eating and it's just not coming to me yet. I hope I figure this out soon. Sent from my iPhone

Geneen says that if we are getting bigger & bigger when we do IE that means that we are eating for emotional reasons and NOT because we are hungry. She said that there might be an initial period where we gain some weight because we are rebelling against years of deprivation BUT if it continues on past a couple of weeks then it is NOT about the food BUT about the emotional cause for the need for food.

Yesterday i discovered a good book & website by a psychiatrist who specializes in eating disorders it is called Shrink Yourself. There is a lot of information on his site, questionaires & a really informative blog. I ordered the book yesterday & if I like what I read I am going to do the online sessions.

good luck & remember that you are WORTH it!!!!!
