Hi All,
I'll go ahead and start a new thread and start it with copying the basic principals that Sandra put in the first thread:
I am also adding a link to the 1st Thread, if anyone wants to refer back to it.
Essential Principles of the EOE Food Rehab Program:
"1. Conditioned hypereating is a biological challenge, not a character flaw. Recovery is impossible until we stop viewing overeating as an absence of willpower.
2. Treating conditioned hypereating means recognizing it as a chronic problem that needs to be managed, not one that can be completely cured.
3. Every time we act on our desire for sugar, fat, and salt, and earn a reward as a result, it becomes harder for us to act differently the next time. Effective treatment breaks the cue-urge-reward-habit cycle at the core of conditioned hypereating.
4. The loss of control that characterizes conditioned hypereating is magnified by diets that leave us feeling deprived.
5. New learning can stick only when it generates a feeling of satisfiaction. We can't sustain a change in behavior if it leaves us hungry, unhappy, angry, or resentful.
6. Restoring control over eating requires us to take a comprehensive approach, one that has many interlocking steps. To gain the upper hand, we need strategies that address the multiple behavioral, cognitive, and nutritional elements of conditioned hypereating.
7. Lapses are to be expected. Most of us are never fully cured of conditioned hypereating. We remain vulnerable to the pull of old habits, although with time and the rewards that accompany success, they do lose some of their power. With practice, we can find ways to use "slips" to our advantage, as tools for recognizing where we might stumble and reminders of the need to develop new learning.
8. Eventually, we can begin to think differently about food, recognizing its value to sustain us and protect us from hunger, and denying it the authority to govern our lives."
