My Food Addiction Recovery Plan (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798685106872)

Do you feel uncomfortable, embarrassed, guilty, or depressed about your weight? Do you resort to emotional eating to escape from problems, avoid boredom, relieve anxiety, or cope with stress? Have you ever tried to stop or limit some aspect of your compulsive-eating behaviors, but failed in your attempts? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you may be struggling with food addiction.Recent neuro-science research shows that activities such as over-eating - or the consuming of high-fat, high-sugar, high-salt foods - produce dopamine, a "feel-good" neurotransmitter released into the prefrontal cortex of the brain. This part of the brain is responsible for willpower and when it is repeatedly compromised with too much dopamine, it can become addicted - just like that of a drug addict. Diets don't treat addiction With 70% of Americans overweight, when are we going to stop throwing diets at addiction? This workbook is designed to help you jump-start your recovery from food addiction. With information, tips, tools, advice and activities designed to help you overcome your addiction to food, the My Food Addiction Recovery Plan workbook and it's companion My Transformation Journal will walk you through a step-by-step plan to take back your life. As you answer the call of recovery, you too can find joy, confidence and freedom from food addiction
