## Resource

My No.1 bestselling book, FULL: THE EMPTINESS OF OVEREATING, is available here. Let's break down a check-in from a client who is not tracking food, calories or scale weight and then tried on clothing that were far too big for her. Suddenly, the pull to weigh herself or overeat became overwhelming. We break down what motivation really is, how to soothe yourself when you're anxious, and the psychology behind punishment vs celebration
