But, you are not alone with your problem and you are not without methods to combat it.

This eBook

The Be You Thin e-book targets the issue of emotional eating and lays it bare in a way that is understandable and easy to digest. It asks poignant questions and lets the reader come to its own conclusions as to whether or not it has been afflicted by emotional eating at some point in its life. Do you ever feel guilty after eating? Do you prefer to eat where no-one can see you? Do you crave foods that you know are bad for your health? These are just some of the questions that are fired at the reader with the intention of making you reflect on your habits and develop an awareness of what might be a problem area.

Some people’s eating habits are triggered by external cues such as advertising or seeing other people eat. They become so overwhelmed by a sense of craving that they succumb to their appetite and eat when they don’t need to. The fall-out from this is often a feeling of shame, guilt, and regret. Others are driven to emotional eating because of internal sensations. They may want to eat because they are sad or angry or even just bored.

The first section

The first section of the Be You Thin e-book is about helping readers to identify whether or not they have a problem. As with all self-help guides, there can be no self-help until there is an understanding of what the problem is and how it comes about. For some people, the answer could be as simple as learning the difference between when you are physically hungry and when you are emotionally hungry. If you are used to eating your feelings it may take a while for you to be able to step back fully and take an objective look at what you are doing.

If you are unhappy with your eating habits and the effect they are having on your physical and mental health, this e-book could revolutionise your lifestyle and help you become a better version of yourself.
