Understanding Overeating: Shelley Treacher's Insights

Biologically, we're supposed to just eat when we're hungry, so the rest of the time we're doing something else. We've got a social assumption in many of our cultures that people who are overweight could just stop overeating and do some exercise. This is not likely to be a total revelation or a fantastic new idea to someone who overeats. So I need to explain to you all the reasons why it's so difficult to have the willpower to stop eating.
Have you ever wondered why it's so hard to stop overeating? In this episode of 'Underground Confidence Recovery', Shelley Treacher revisits the origins of her podcast with a fresh look at comfort eating, binge-eating, and emotional eating. Shelley shares thought-provoking questions to help you understand what these eating habits mean for you personally. She dives deep into why willpower alone often isn't enough to break the cycle of overeating.
It's not just about resisting temptation; there are biological and social factors at play. From fluctuating blood sugar levels to the cultural significance of food, Shelley unpacks the many layers that contribute to overeating. She also discusses the habitual nature of eating and why changing these habits can be so challenging.
Whether you find yourself reaching for snacks when you're stressed or eating out of boredom, this episode offers a compassionate and informative perspective on why we overeat and how to start addressing it. If you're looking for ways to build your inner strength and tackle these habits head-on, Shelley’s insights could be the key to unlocking your 'underground' confidence.
