129: Fighting Cravings: When You Don’t Want to Overeat and Yet You Do
Struggles with food and eating take up a lot of mental space. I frequently hear from women who desperately want to put an end to all the drama, the thinking about what and when to eat, and would give a lot to be able to create mental peace with food. If you want to understand what freedom from overeating really is, it’s important to understand cognitive dissonance and the mental tricks your brain might be using that are keeping you stuck.
In this episode:
- Cognitive dissonance and internal struggles with eating
- How we cope with cognitive dissonance and wanting to overeat (and also wanting to change our eating)
- Mindless eating or eating to numb as a coping mechanism
- Respecting vs. gaslighting your cognitive dissonance about overeating and emotional eating
