Ep 151 How to Stop Night Time Eating – Live Coaching Session

Do you ever wonder why you like to eat more at night than at any other time during the day?

Do you believe you can’t control yourself at this time?

In this episode I coach a podcast listener on a letter she wrote to me.

If you’ve ever wondered why and how to stop this behavior of night eating then you must listen now.

Here’s the letter she wrote that I coached her on:

Hi Dr. Deb,

I have just started listening to your Podcasts and I am really enjoying them. I also downloaded the podcast companion.

I have a question.

My biggest obstacle to weight loss is eating too much at dinner during the work week and continuing eating until bedtime.

In one of the podcasts, this was a problem that someone asked about. Your response was that using willpower to stop this behavior would not work over the long-term. My question is what is it that we should be using, other than willpower, to stop eating when we are not physically hungry? When I am in this red zone (that is how I think of it) I know intellectually that I do not need to eat anymore. That I am physically full. But, I crave more food. I feel hungry, or over-desire. I am trying to understand how to stop or get past these feelings.

This type of over eating in the evenings after work has become habitual, so I know that I have a lot of mental work to do to stop it.

Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

Enjoy the show!
