Too Much on Her Plate with Dr. Melissa McCreery – Détails, épisodes et analyse

How can you be so smart and successful in multiple areas of your life and be going in circles with overeating and your weight? Why is it that you know how to solve so many problems, but every Monday you’re facing down the same old personal challenges with stress, or overwhelm, overeating, and the scale? It’s not just you. In what’s probably a familiar refrain from me, I’m here to tell you that one part of the problem is that you’ve been given a puzzle that’s missing some pieces. Because I believe it’s essential to fill in these blank spots, I’ve developed a new answer to the question, “What is it that you do?” In this episode, I’m going to share it with you.

In this episode:

• Executive coaching - what’s missing too much of the time
• Why wellness coaching might not work for you
• Cultural biases for seeking help in only certain areas
• Performing and being a leader for your wellness and well-being

Today I’d like to tell you a story about a quirky habit and how it relates to the neuroscience of happiness. We’re also going to cover how you can use this information to create more positive results when you’re working to change your eating habits or break cycles with emotional eating. AND (stick with me), I’m going to tell you how all of this can help you create momentum and ongoing motivation when you’re in the midst of change.

This sounds like a lot- I know. And it all starts with counting bunnies on my runs.

In this episode:

• My rather odd running habit
• Our neurobiological preference to notice the negative
• What counting bunnies has to do with creating peace with food or changing overeating patterns
• The power of writing things out instead of just thinking them through

• How focusing on emotional eating might just lead to more overeating instead of less
• The power of the Hidden Hungers Quiz and why I recommend you take it sooner rather than later
• The effectiveness of small, strategic steps

If you’re flooded with feelings of anger or powerlessness, your brain (and your thinking) is likely to take you in the opposite direction. Once you understand this you can use the four steps I’m going to share with you today to take your power back from overeating and to chart a new course when you’re feeling mad or upset - one that doesn’t involve reflexively reaching for something to eat.

This is exactly what I’m covering in this episode.

In this episode::

• 4 steps to stop emotional eating when you’re mad or frustrated
• Why it can be physiologically difficult to prevent emotional eating if you don’t know these steps
• Why it’s so important to do the steps in order
• What to do when you can’t control the situation (spoiler alert: this isn’t uncommon)

How do we juggle all the moving parts? How do we listen to ourselves, acknowledge that feeling of “I don’t want to” and not feel like we’re held captive in a cycle of rebellious self-sabotage?

This is exactly what I’m covering in this episode.

Let’s explore:

• When we rebel against ourselves or don’t want to do something (like change our eating) even when we think we really want to
• Signs of inner rebellion you may be missing
• Breaking the cycle of reaction mode so that you can make the choices you want to

Do you ever feel like you’re the only smart woman who hasn’t figured out how to break patterns of overeating and emotional eating. If you’re feeling this way, you’re not alone - so let’s bust this myth once and for all. The truth is, there are very common reasons that smart, busy women overeat. These reasons can create a self-perpetuating cycle that can keep you stuck even if you’re working hard to change overeating or emotional eating habits.

What I cover in this episode:

• The isolation and false belief so many smart women have that they are alone in their overeating struggles
• The self-reinforcing cycle that can keep you overeating
• How to build a self-perpetuating pattern that takes your power back from overeating

Most of us know that there is no magic pill that stops overeating or causes instant weight loss - but a part of your brain is very likely hoping that there is.

And this can cause problems.

In this episode, I’m covering how magical thinking and diet mentality might be keeping you stuck and the bigger, better possibility that I believe you deserve.

What I cover in this episode:

• How diet culture and magical thinking can keep you stuck or blaming yourself
• The difference between quick weight loss and freedom from overeating
• How magical thinking might be preventing you from sticking with what is already working
• Why being patient and allowing yourself time might not feel the dreadful way your thoughts tell you it will
