When people suggested I lose weight by “eating in moderation” or “cutting out sweets”, I knew I couldn’t do it because food was everything to me. I had an insatiable appetite for all the wrong things – and wrong amounts! Strangely, even if I was “filled to the brim” and couldn’t eat any more, I STILL WASN’T SATISFIED!
The truth is that my hunger – especially for the ooey, gooey, chewy foods that were my staple when no one was watching – wasn’t a physical hunger. Every day I lived with a gnawing, gaping, yawn of a hole inside that was screaming to be filled. I had a hunger much deeper that no pastry, doughnut or plate of pasta could satisfy.
If you have a hunger inside that no food seems to satisfy, you’re in the right place. I understand the pain, shame and feelings of hopelessness that come with being an emotional eater. They say “it takes one to know one”. And that is certainly true in the emotional eater’s case. After all, who else, but us, could comprehend eating until our stomachs are stuffed and we feel sick? Who else could understand our driving through the Burger King drive-thru and ordering for two when we’re only one? Who else could know the degradation and despair of sabotaging that diet on which we had just lost 20 pounds and claimed to feel so great?
That’s why I’m here. Please join me on this journey of discovering your true hunger inside and how to satisfy it. You are not alone in your experience and you don’t have to suffer anymore.
