Food Addiction – Intro to Henry’s Story

Food Addiction has led me to some interesting conversations with people I know.  When they find out I once weighed 325 pounds (now 162 – height 5’5”) they often want to know how I lost all that weight and kept it off for over 35 years.  So here is the beginning of my “food addict” story!  I want to give you the opportunity to benefit from my knowledge and experience if you have an interest. You’ll learn that it’s possible to become maybe not slim exactly but fit and healthy—and stay that way for life. I’ll walk you through step by step how overcoming food addiction happened for me – sometimes by design and sometimes by accident. We’ll cover diet, exercise, and some of the psychological “intangibles” of food addiction that are just as crucial for lasting weight-loss as the ways you eat and move. I’ll also give you information about some valuable resources from other weight-loss experts so you can benefit from their knowledge. I want you to be prepared for what is coming if you are committed to stopping food addiction since the more prepared you are for what is going to happen the easier it will be for you.  The most important thing to remember is that you can do this, and you won’t have to do it alone!

Food Addiction – What To Do?

            I would like to emphasize that it is not necessary to do all of the things I did (50 of them moving forward) —especially not all at once. In fact, I would recommend you NOT do it all at once. Pick the items that you think make sense and start off one at a time. You gained the weight over time, so it only makes sense that it will take time to lose it. A lot of times, food addicts start out all gung-ho and try to make numerous radical lifestyle changes overnight. But it’s hard to stick to such drastic changes, and people tend to get discouraged and revert back to their old lifestyle. If you implement the changes gradually, over time, you’ll have a much better chance of sticking with them. Long-term results are what we are after so the name of the game is progress not perfection.  It doesn’t have to be all or nothing! As the old saying goes, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” One step at a time.
