Incredible health benefits of losing 65 lbs for a former fat girl

In our recent interview, I had the pleasure of speaking with Nicole, also known as the "former-fat-girl," who shared her inspiring story of overcoming emotional eating and finding food freedom. Nicole's journey began at a young age when she turned to food as a means of coping with the loss of her brother. Over the years, her emotional eating habits escalated, leading to weight gain and a number of health issues. However, with determination and a focus on her mental and emotional well-being, Nicole was able to transform her relationship with food and achieve significant weight loss. In this interview, we will explore Nicole's story, her transition from a vegan diet to a low-carb animal-based diet, and her journey towards food freedom and emotional healing.

Understanding the Emotional Eating Cycle

Nicole's story highlights the detrimental effects of emotional eating and its impact on physical and mental health. Emotional eating occurs when individuals use food as a way to cope with or suppress their emotions. It is often triggered by stress, boredom, sadness, or other negative emotions. However, the temporary relief provided by food is short-lived and can lead to feelings of guilt, shame, and further emotional distress. The cycle of emotional eating becomes a self-perpetuating pattern, as individuals rely on food to numb their emotions and escape from underlying issues.
