Port Alberni, BC

Has anyone ever used a weightloss clinic like Dr Bernstein? Their's sound quite good but only if you can spared $1200. -- $2000. Some people might consider the $2000. grant if you can afford to pay in advance. I, personally, can't afford it!

A MyObesityTeam Member

How Do I Stop Emotional Eating?

A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭
St. Louis, MO

I eat when I am bored, I eat when I am tired, I eat when I am frustrated. I am constantly eating for reasons other than hunger. How do I stop? It's like it just slips under my radar and next thing I know, I have polished off a whole pie, or cookies or bag of potato chips.

Write your feelings down. Go for a walk.
