Conventional wisdom suggests if you eat less and exercise more, you’ll lose weight. But that’s not so easy for those that struggle with emotional eating. Tricia Nelson describes how she lost 50 pounds by getting off the diet rollercoaster ride, looking beyond the symptoms of food and weight and healing her emotional relationship with food instead. She’s spent the past several decades helping people lose weight without dieting through her process that she outlines in her book, Heal Your Hunger, 7 Simple Steps to End Emotional Eating Now and her popular podcast, The Heal Your Hunger Show. Tricia Nelson lost fifty pounds by identifying and healing the underlying causes of her emotional eating and sugar addiction. Tricia has spent over thirty years researching the hidden causes of the addictive personality. Tricia is an Emotional Eating Expert, founder of HealYourHunger.com and author of the #1 bestselling book, Heal Your Hunger, 7 Simple Steps to End Emotional Eating Now. Tricia is the host of the popular podcast, The Heal Your Hunger Show and has been a highly regarded guest speaker on more than 100 popular podcasts. Tricia has been featured on NBC, CBS, KTLA, FOX, The List and Discovery Health. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

It's definitely not about the food - just like any addiction isn't actually about the substance. We are all just here self medicating in hopes of feeling something, anything, that gives us a moment of joy. There's so much more to life than instant gratification. Great talk Tricia.

I am going to watch this a few more times! The part about taking the tiger (or lion?) out of the cage to give it a snack hoping not to get mauled in the process really illustrated how hard it is for an emotional eater to face down food each day without falling into self-medicating for pain, escape, or punishment.

@blusky7 2 года назад

That's true. Often the over-eaters are overdoers and people pleasers. They tire themselves every time and got to release their emotions through something that they think will not bother other people, that is food. Thanks Tricia for the great talk! Will try to slow down and manage my stress level, and to learn to say no when my plate is full.

@angelmarie1111 2 года назад

@@thoughtfulpro371 Are you implying that you think Tricia teaches control? If so, you couldn't be farther from the truth. OA may be great for some, but Tricia dives in so much deeper than that and teaches the tools necessary for true and total healing. Also, just because someone is thin and not overeating doesn't mean they're healthy, healed, or free; that's a dangerous implication and thought process. What Tricia teaches is true healing from our deepest core. Tricia has shown me and many others what true peace and freedom within this condition is and she lives it every day so she understands. Because of Tricia, I do have freedom. She has saved not only my life, but also so many others. I'm so beyond grateful for her and her being brave enough to utilize her struggles to help others.

@jenknaebel5893 2 года назад

Very good talk! She hits so many key points, but don't forget that if your body is hungry, it will compel you to binge. We have to eat enough calories in the first place to prevent binging! Once that's established, you can address the emotional side.

@saleisalovic 2 года назад

I’ve been learning about different kinds of hunger, like emotional hunger and stress hunger, but also mouth hunger and stomach hunger. There is little understanding of the different functions of food because we have come from a dangerous social commentary of ‘skinny= successful’. Changing your relationship with food and addressing what you and your body needs is powerful.

@AlinaTowers 2 года назад

I have come to believe it’s an eating disorder for me. I maintain enough self-control not to get overweight, but I feel crazy about food. Obsessive, I can’t find the balance! I don’t know if you could say I binge-I graze and never feel satisfied, but usually do it on foods that are healthy. Still, I can’t feel grossly full and not feel satisfied. Junk food is more satisfying, but still not completely. When I withhold myself from stuff I shouldn’t eat, or decrease portions, I feel so sad, literally depressed. I get angry at myself when I overeat and see the results, but then there’s a self-destructive element that comes in, and I think I self-harm with food. The good news is I’m working through my emotions and already seeing the result in my appetite. Praise God!

The next day i try to exercise. Ive been battling this demon since i was 8. Today at mid 30s, ive lost 47kg, 5kg away from my GW. Still i binge eat, i strength train, cardio.

@joyceslp 2 года назад

Essentially, people binge eat to reduce their neagtive feelings, sadness, guilt, boredom, disappointment etc., However, after emotional eating they feel even worse and then it's become a vicious cycle. Changing habits/behaviours is about changing what you believe. Jame Clear, the author of Atomic Habits says the key is to change your identity. The end goal might be to lose weight or to be healthy. To achieve that goal, you need to form this identity that you are person who eats healthy food and lives a healthy lifestyle. How and what to do is the next step. No matter how much self-care we do, negative feelings are unavoidable in life. Next time you're sad what are you planning to do? I think writing a list of things you can do when you're sad bored tired disappointed guilty now will help you avoid turn to food next time. When you realised you've got other choices, it'll be a different situation.

@4estdweller4ever 2 года назад

Our personalities originate from our formative years. If we are frightened, sad, perfectionist, hollow, angry, or terrified of abandonment we may have had experiences that damaged or neglected us before we had critical thinking or our own inner resources to protect us with. Some of us had experiences so profoundly damaging while our brain was developing that we are only a fraction of the person that we might have been. What if on top of that we’ve never been able to form supportive bonds with others because we don’t trust others? Maybe our bonding experience was dismantled and pulverized by vandals who were supposed to love you and keep you safe. We all tend to move toward what seems familiar so when your mother didn’t protect you from abuse by your stepfather but instead snuck candy bars under your pillow 🤫 or would binge eat with you from freezer contents, hiding the evidence bc he was working nights and we could stuff ourselves instead of having our food rationed so we become hungry insomniacs? You made some valid points but it felt a bit like starting in the middle of a movie. We can see what’s happening but we don’t know why or how it started. I didn’t find it to be very helpful. This was about the mechanics of turning down your thermostat if your house is too hot when in reality the thermostat is broke and stuck on high.

@movievaudeville 2 года назад

I like this a lot. I know that EE is something I do, or have done. Tricia Nelson's work aligns with what I've learned and am practicing now. I finally threw out the diet mentality about 9 months ago, which is saying something since I've been on that roller coaster for more than 50 years. What's started working for me is a blend of several things: learning the principles of Intuitive Eating, which I discovered while researching motivation, which led me to Self-Determination Theory and then to I.E.; understanding the biological processes which get triggered by caloric reduction (the body's famine state response) and how that works to tank quick and sustained weight loss efforts and why I should chill about losing weight, but rather focus on healing; and now, addressing my emotional eating which has two parts: learning every day coping strategies as Tricia outlines, AND getting help to heal from trauma since many studies have shown folks with addiction issues are very often trauma survivors, as I am. It's so great to see all the work being done, and I wish that older members of my family had known of this way back when.

It's crazy to think about how much your emotions can affect!

"The worst of life couldn't take out the best of me." I saw this saying somewhere and loved it. Naturally I like to tweak things a bit... "the worst of life brought out the best of me".

Beautifully honest and touching talk. So many people numb their emotions with food. I love how the speaker creates a simple framework to help you identify the emotional root of your food cravings.

Great talk Tricia, glad you were able to identify those emotions in yourself and create a way of checking in on yourself that you can share with everyone.

The anatomy of the emotional eater resonates deeply. It's eye-opening to recognize how habits like people-pleasing contribute to emotional eating.

The change in perspective you experienced is powerful. Shifting the focus from what unhealthy foods do to you, to understanding what they do for you, is a game-changer.

What a wonderfully honest share about the struggle with emotional eating. I love the PEP test and plan to share this video and tool with my weight loss clients. Congratulations on an excellent and informative TED talk Trisha. Well done.

I love seeing ads about exercise as i'm driving to figure out the patterns of my emotional eating!!

This is wonderfully real and valuable. With bright eyes and a smile, she shares and encourages with reality as it is. No excuses, empowering others to take care of themselves not judge themselves. From experience I know change is challenging because the habits and patterns are hardwired. Each day I have to ask myself what will I say, do or think differently. I have that choice and some days are more challenging than others. I don't like to use the word "hard" because it creates a barrier and doesn't offer me movement.

Wow. I’ve been praying for answers. You described me to a T. I look forward to learning more about myself through your wisdom. And I will be looking up more about what other tools you might have. Thank You 🙏

As a nutritionist, I understand the challenges of emotional eating and its impact on overall health. It's important to recognize that our relationship with food is complex, influenced by both physiological and emotional factors. While it's crucial to focus on nourishing our bodies with balanced and nutritious meals, addressing the underlying emotional triggers is equally important. Finding healthier coping mechanisms and developing a positive relationship with food can lead to sustainable weight management and improved well-being.

Community is so critical. I do not know of any person who progresses towards goals or maintains health and wellness goals WITHOUT a community of others who have lived their experience and can lead the way in progress along with accountability.
