Great youtube videos about the hcg diet and overcoming emotional eating
 

I have stumbled upon some wonderful videos that I started watching and I thought I would share. They are by Robin Woodall Phipps, author of "Weight-Loss Apocalypse" (hcg diet book).

Many of them are counseling sessions with patients at an hcg weight loss clinic. I have watched a few of them and they are very interesting! There are many videos by her. Here is a link to one of them:

Tammy,

thanks so much for this wonderful information. Wishing you continued success with your round:hugs:.

Thanks Marie! :)

One more......

Tammy

I obviously need to spend more time on the computer :hyst::hyst: thanks for sharing. I will look at these this week when I get home from work tomorrow and no one is home. Good thing I get off at 11AM. Plenty of time to review these!!

:goodpost:
Thanks for sharing these. I've been reading Weight Loss Apocalypse...and am very glad to find these videos.

I really want to read the book now,these are very helpful. Like couseling for free lol. I can see myself in a lot of the examples she is giving the clients. ugh why is food such an issue

Me too Pammela! If I was in her area I would go to counseling with her in a minute!

:welcome:

:dunno:

The problem with food...at least for me...is it's "legal"...and we NEED to eat to live. My issue is I've been used to using food to "Live it up"...it has been a source of dealing with pain, a partner in joy, and many other excuses I have used for eating too much or too poorly for my body.

It's not an addiction like alcohol or tobacco, where you do not need to indulge in order to physically survive.

We're all sensitive to overeating and over-gaining of weight...:cry:Sucks...
At least this WOE allows us to tke a break from thise foods whicgh have the most impact on our weight...carbs/sugars. And then with careful eating, we can see which ones impact us the most. :high5:

Hang in there.

Has anyone else watched any of Robin's videos? I highly recommend them. The lady is absolutely brilliant with emotional food issues. I am addicted to watching them!

I've watched quite a few of them myself but not addicted. ;)

Thanks for sharing. I've watched a couple of them so far & do find that she is insightful. I am totally an emotional eater - I just don't know how to stop my bad behavior. So far, I haven't seen her give any advice on how to overcome the problem of emotional eating. Have you?

I know I'm an addict. I will sneak food and I have always had a private stash that I don't tell anyone about. What I don't know is how to stop.

Hi xx - Yes I have seen her give advice on how to overcome the emotional eating. Of course, I have also read her book as well. I have many thoughts about this based on what I have learned from her. But I would rather post your question to Robin herself online and see if she will answer it.

I can tell you that this is a LOADED question and unfortunately not one that is easily answered in a sentence or even a paragraph or 2. I do highly recommend her book if you're interested. It's called Weight-Loss Apocalypse.

If she doesn't answer, I will be happy to share my thoughts with you. Would you like me to try asking her? If so, I won't use your screen name. I'll just post it anonymously. :)

Are you my twin ;) I do the very same thing. And wish I could stop it too :console: I wish I had the answer, but it seems that hcg has exacerbated my issues terribly. I am in a terrible cycle of yo-yoing, even with the hcg to fall back onto with losing.
