Episode Details

Emotional skill development is being uncovered as one of the crucial pieces to successfully treating and preventing eating problems. Without it, people simply don’t get better, or they get better for a short time and relapse when life gets hard again. Sadly, few weight management programs and “experts” use these skills in their treatment approach, opting instead to focus on food, food, food.

Let it fuel your hope that you can and will get better - you just haven't been given the right tools before. And today, that starts changing.
