Ep 264 How I lost 30 lbs and stopped stress-eating without dieting or exercise
Description
Ever wondered why, no matter how many diets you try, the weight just keeps coming back? Or why stress-eating seems impossible to stop, even when you know it’s sabotaging your progress? It can feel like an endless cycle of restriction and guilt, with food constantly on your mind, draining your energy and joy.
The frustration of trying every fad diet, battling constant cravings, and still not feeling at peace with food can be overwhelming. You might even feel like you’ll never be free from the mental exhaustion of thinking about what you should or shouldn’t eat, especially in social situations or during vacations. It's like living in a prison built from food rules and body image struggles.
But, there’s a way to finally break free from this cycle—without counting calories, giving up your favorite foods, or spending hours in the gym. In today’s episode, Leslie shares her story of how she lost 30 pounds and stopped stress-eating for good, not through dieting or exercise, but by addressing the real reasons behind her food struggles. You’ll discover how true food freedom is possible, and how you can experience peace with your body and mind—permanently.
"I need you to understand it is not about knowing better. All my clients could write multiple books on how to lose weight. Is that doing anything? It's not about knowing better in any of the scenarios. I had this epiphany that the reason I could never actually stay consistent with my weight and eating was because I wasn't dealing with my underlying issues --- my fears, my beliefs, my thoughts, my emotions, where my weight issues started in the first place. I started working on that." - Leslie Thornton
