In addition to habit eating, in the Awareness phase of my ACE Weight Loss methodology we also often find stress and emotional eating.
Lots of potential clients coming to me knowing they are stress eaters or emotional eaters, but some people are so good at using food unconsciously to cover up their emotions that it's not until they try to cut out eating when they are not hungry that the emotions come up.
Either way, once you realize the problem is your feelings, all you need to do is to swap out the solution.
If the only solution you have for the problem of feelings is to eat, of course you will continue to gain weight – especially when things are tough!
Luckily, replacing the maladaptive coping mechanism of overeating in response to feelings is easy with the tools I teach clients.
Once they master tools such as EFT and self-coaching, they never have to reach for food as the only tool in the toolbox.
We'll talk more about solutions once we get to the Clearning phase of my ACE Weight Loss Methodology, though, so keep following me to learn more about that.
