  • Episode 119: THE MIRACLE DRUGS ARE GREAT. BUT THEY WILL NEVER ENABLE YOU TO PERMANENTLY WEIGH LESS.
    May 12 2024

    So why is it when you stop taking these drugs that you regain the weight you thought you had lost for good?
    The answer is very simple. It is the emotional need for food that made you overweight or fat to begin with.
    You didn't want to weigh too much but you put enough food in your mouth to make you weigh too much. Why?
    Because putting all that food in your mouth made you feel better or happier. Whatever the feeling you wanted you knew putting all that food in your mouth would make you weigh too much. Isn't that crazy????

  • Episode 117: EXPLAINING AGAIN WHY YOU ARE STUCK AT YOUR PRESENT WEIGHT AND CAN'T WEIGH LESS.
    Sep 19 2021

    In order to understand why you are stuck at your weight - which you say you hate - you first have to understand why you made yourself weigh what you do. hint- it's not the food. Food didn't make you weigh what you do. You did!! all by yourself.
    So why would you do something as foolish as making yourself weigh too much? The answer is that you couldn't help it. Really!! Emotionally it was more important to you to keep putting food in your mouth than it was to weigh less. Really.
    You weigh what you weigh because it is a weight that enables you to continue to put lots of food in your mouth and have a stable weight. If you had a greater need to put food in your mouth you would do so and weigh more. It's that simple.
    Diets will never, ever, enable you to permanently weigh less than you do because they are premised on reducing or changing the amount or type of food that you need emotionally. That is emotional deprivation and will never last very long.
    In order to weigh less permanently or choose what you want to weigh you have to eliminate your emotional need for food. Your ENF. It's really simple and it's FREE!!
