Food and Booze – My Weekend Weakness

July 16th, 2010 at 08:34am Under Diet Advice

When the weekend rolls around I feel inclined to let loose a little.  I don’t drink like I did in my 20s but I still crave a drink or two on a Friday night.  Dinner parties on Saturday or a family get together on Sunday can involve alcohol as well.  The challenge is the food [...]

Obligated to Eat

June 24th, 2010 at 09:31am Under Diet Advice

In almost every culture food is a gesture of goodwill. A person extends a plate of food – an offering of friendship or love. I can see the Italian grandma right now in my mind, “Eat! Manga! Manga!” There is a restaurant that my wife and I used to go to regularly – we got [...]

Secret Eating (also known as “Shame Eating”) and Weight Release

May 27th, 2010 at 09:01am Under healthy eating

I was a secret eater for many years. I would eat alone or sneak snacks. I was not feeding my body – I was feeding my shame. Like many of my weight release clients, I ritualized my secret eating – making it ritualized self-shaming. My binging, usually late at night, was promoted by my diet [...]

April 22nd, 2010 at 11:24am Under Diet Advice

Food was the enemy. As a person who struggled with weight, for many years food was at the center of my personal battle over what to put in my body. I was caught in a “push/pull” experience that took the pleasure out of eating.  I was in a fight with myself at every meal, and [...]

March 26th, 2010 at 10:40am Under Healthy Holiday Recipes

Did you know Easter is less than 10 days away? Sometimes these holidays can just sneak up on me. Easter always holds a special place in my heart, if for nothing else because I learned how to ride a bicycle on Easter. Outside of that, Easter was always a low key affair in my house. [...]
