70 years ago, almost no one was overweight or fat, let alone obese. Obesity really didn't exist.So now experts are saying that there is an obesity crisis. Nonsense. There is no crisis. People are just putting too much food in their mouths. They are making themselves overweight, fat or obese. So why would they do something so stupid?They do it because having food in their mouths makes them feel better or less anxious. It is that emotional need that causes people to put so much food in their mouth.You can eliminate that emotional need, and you will no longer need to put food in your mouth to feel better. It's not difficult and it's free. Once adult obesity is solved by eliminating this emotional need, childhood obesity will follow.

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

Sep 19th, 2021 9:27 PM

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!!

Episode 116: WANT TO KNOW WHY YOU WEIGH WHAT YOU WEIGH? HERE'S WHY.

Sep 17th, 2021 4:57 PM

You hate what you weigh but are unable to weigh less. Why is that? It's because every time you feel bad or want to feel better or don't get enough affection, love or other emotions you value you put food in your mouth. Your weight is determined by the amount of food you put in your mouth to satisfy those needs. Weighing 10 pounds less should be very simple. Just don't put as much food in your mouth. But you can't do that because it would deprive you of the foods that you depend on emotionally. That's called EMOTIONAL DEPRIVATION!! And it will never last. That's why "dieting" is a colossal waste of time - and money. Because it's based on emotional deprivation. You simply have to understand -  and feel - this concept to no longer need to put food in your mouth to satisfy your emotional needs. It is really that simple - and it's free.
