Ep481: Leave Your Husband Out of It!

Ever tell your spouse that you’re on a diet? Then, in the next breath, ask him to pick up your favorite binge food? Being married to an emotional eater isn’t a walk in the park. We’re moody, food-obsessed, and on a constant roller coaster ride of dieting and regaining the weight we’ve lost. And we take our partners and kids with us. In this episode, I recommend one thing. Do this and you can begin your new life of freedom.
