[Repost] #279: What If You Can’t Stop Eating When Food Tastes Good?

Christy answers an audience question about what to do if you feel out of control with certain foods. We discuss the many reasons why you might feel compelled to eat to the point of discomfort, why you’re not “wrong” or “bad” for doing it, and how to reduce the restrictions that often drive this kind of eating, so that you can feel more at peace with food. (This episode originally aired on June 27, 2022.) Pre-order Christy's second book, The Wellness Trap, for its April 25 release!
