Binge eating triggers do NOT cause binges...they cause desires. Each time you recognize those triggers and avoid rewarding them with food you are effectively breaking down the connection between the trigger and the desire until that same trigger no longer produces a craving at all.In this book we cover: - EMOTIONAL TRIGGERS AND THEIR BUSTERS: Low self-esteem, Self-doubt, Boredom, Feeling Deprived, Financial Concerns, Feeling fat, Stress and Overwhelm, Loneliness, Shame, Anxiousness, Apathy, Feeling powerless, etc'- PHYSICAL TRIGGERS AND THEIR BUSTERS: Hunger, Being too tired, That time of the month, Thirst, etc.- ENVIRONMENTAL TRIGGERS AND THEIR BUSTERS: The smell of food, Passing old haunts - Restaurants - Bakeries- and others, Lack of planning and preparation, Social situations, Nasty comments about your weight, Night time eating, etc.- THOUGHT BASED TRIGGERS AND THEIR BUSTERS: "One little bite won't hurt", "The scale doesn't budge", " Can't decide which diet to follow", "Worried you'll feel deprived forever", "This can't work forever", "Not enough time for self-care", "I can't afford to eat healthy", "My cravings will last forever", etc.
If you're a man who struggles with binge eating, emotional eating, stress eating, or if you repeatedly manage to lose weight only to gain it all back, you may be approaching things with the wrong mindset. Most contemporary thought on overeating and bingeing focuses on healing and self-love-a very feminine approach. But men who've overcome food and weight issues often report it was more like capturing and caging a rabid dog than learning to love their inner child... Open the cage even an inch-or show that dog an ounce of fear-and it'll quickly burst out to shred your healthy eating plans, undoing all your progress in a heartbeat. From his perspective as a formerly food-obsessed psychologist-and previous consultant to major food manufacturers-Dr. Livingston shares specific techniques for isolating and permanently dis-empowering your "fat thinking self." He reveals much of his own personal journey in the process. If despite your best intentions you find yourself in one or more of the following situations then this book is for you... You've tried diet after diet with no permanent success... You constantly think about food and/or your weight... You feel driven to eat when you're not hungry (emotional overeating)... You sometimes feel you can't stop eating even though you're full... You sometimes feel guilty or ashamed of what you've eaten... You behave differently with food in private than you do when you're with other people... You feel the need to fast and/or severely restrict your food to "make up" for serious bouts of overeating... Never Binge Again can help you: Dramatically improve your ability to stick to ANY healthy food plan so you can achieve your weight loss and/or fitness goals... Quickly recover from mistakes without self judgement or unnecessary guilt... Free yourself from the prison of food obsession so you can enjoy a satisfying, delicious, and healthy diet for the rest of your life! "What the Hades is this? It can't be this simple. But I'm closer to my goal weight than I've been in decades!" - Peter Borromeo "A powerful, thought provoking, and very un-ladylike approach to the problem of bingeing!" - Stephanie King "A unique and brilliant way to leverage will power; passionate, convincing, defiant and inspiring - all at the same time" - Richard Guy "Never Binge Again squelched that awful voice in the back of my mind which says 'you'll backslide eventually, no matter what.' Thanks to this book failure is no longer an option!" - Warren Start "I'm still reeling with the revelation I have the ability to Never Binge Again, just like my ability to never rob a bank, never push and old lady into traffic, or never jump off of a perfectly good cliff! [...] This book is THE TOOL I need to conquer ever attempting to satisfy emotional feelings with carbo-laden calories again!" - Traci Rickards "If you follow this simple program, you CAN see results without the 'normal' struggle. No eating foods you don't like. No fancy rules, schedules or psychotic workouts. It puts you fully in charge of your eating...and it's sustainable." - Keith Duncan CPT (Certified Personal Trainer) "Refreshingly unlike any other nutrition/healthy-eating/wellbeing title I've ever read...and I've read quite a few! The total absence of charts, food diaries, calorie counters and so on is fabulous." - Celia Almeida
Based on Stanford University psychologist Kelly McGonigal's wildly popular course "The Science of Willpower," The Willpower Instinct is the first book to explain the science of self-control and how it can be harnessed to improve our health, happiness, and productivity. Informed by the latest research and combining cutting-edge insights from psychology, economics, neuroscience, and medicine, The Willpower Instinct explains exactly what willpower is, how it works, and why it matters. For example, readers will learn: • Willpower is a mind-body response, not a virtue. It is a biological function that can be improved through mindfulness, exercise, nutrition, and sleep. • Willpower is not an unlimited resource. Too much self-control can actually be bad for your health. • Temptation and stress hijack the brain's systems of self-control, but the brain can be trained for greater willpower • Guilt and shame over your setbacks lead to giving in again, but self-forgiveness and self-compassion boost self-control. • Giving up control is sometimes the only way to gain self-control. • Willpower failures are contagious—you can catch the desire to overspend or overeat from your friends—but you can also catch self-control from the right role models. In the groundbreaking tradition of Getting Things Done, The Willpower Instinct combines life-changing prescriptive advice and complementary exercises to help readers with goals ranging from losing weight to more patient parenting, less procrastination, better health, and greater productivity at work.

This book may change the way you think about food forever... I know that's a big promise, but I don't make it lightly! I published this book as a companion to the bestselling Never Binge Again(TM), a copy of which you can download for FREE in Kindle format here: (https: //www.amazon.com/Never-Binge-Again-Permanently-Overeating-ebook/dp/B014V1Q6SI/)Never Binge Again was originally a journal I kept about the very strange method I developed to put an end to 30 years of my own binge eating. There's a lot more to it than this, but essentially, it was me against my Inner Food Monster(TM) (my Reptilian brain)...and all the crazy things it told me to get me to repeatedly break my best laid dietary plans...Despite numerous doctors telling me I was going to die before I was 40 years old...Despite working with some of the best psychologists in the world (I grew up in a family of them in and around New York City)...Despite having been the CEO of two consulting companies which sold more than $30,000,000 to Fortune 500 firms including many in the Big Food industry...And despite doing my own food addiction study with more than 40,000 people.That's right, after 30 years of suffering, this sophisticated, ultra-experienced psychologist and jet-set businessman finally got his act together with food...Not by loving himself thin and/or nurturing his inner wounded child...But by aggressively separating his constructive vs. destructive thoughts about food. This method, as crude and primitive as it was, was the ONLY thing which gave me those extra microseconds at the moment of impulse to wake up, remember who I was and what my higher goals were... and make the right decision.In any case, you should really read the original book to get the most out of this one... it has more than 1,750 reviews on Amazon and, as of this publication, more than 80% were four stars or better! What THIS book contains is a series of word for word transcripts from actual coaching interviews... along with links to the blog post where you can HEAR the recording. It's a great way to get a sense of how this all works in practice after you understand it in principle.That said, without further ado, here are the Food Demon Interviews!

From a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter at The New York Times comes the troubling story of the rise of the processed food industry -- and how it used salt, sugar, and fat to addict us. Salt Sugar Fat is a journey into the highly secretive world of the processed food giants, and the story of how they have deployed these three essential ingredients, over the past five decades, to dominate the North American diet. This is an eye-opening book that demonstrates how the makers of these foods have chosen, time and again, to double down on their efforts to increase consumption and profits, gambling that consumers and regulators would never figure them out. With meticulous original reporting, access to confidential files and memos, and numerous sources from deep inside the industry, it shows how these companies have pushed ahead, despite their own misgivings (never aired publicly). Salt Sugar Fat is the story of how we got here, and it will hold the food giants accountable for the social costs that keep climbing even as some of the industry's own say, "Enough already."
