Never Binge Again, The Psychology of Overeating and How to Overcome- Dr. Glenn Livingston PhD12/15/2018
The Team Functionised podcast is hosted by Jim Goetz, Chantea Goetz and Dr. Mike Brandon. Today's podcast was recorded at Functionised Integrative Therapeutics in Colts Neck, New Jersey. Dr. Glenn Livingston joined us via call from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
In this very special podcast, we discuss the struggles individuals have with food and how many have difficulty sticking with a healthy diet. Many individuals successfully lose weight but then gain it all back and then some. However, most do not approach their health and nutrition from a psychological perspective. Therefore, the wrong mindset is applied and despite best efforts; long term you are going to fail before you begin. "Most contemporary thought on overeating and bingeing focuses on healing and self-love. But people who've overcome food and weight issues often report it was more like capturing and caging a rabid dog than learning to love their inner child... Open the cage even an inch—or show that dog an ounce of fear—and it'll quickly burst out to shred your healthy eating plans, undoing all your progress in a heartbeat. From his perspective as a formerly food-obsessed psychologist—and previous consultant to major food manufacturers—Dr. Livingston shares specific techniques for isolating and permanently disempowering your "fat thinking self." He reveals much of his own personal journey in the process. If despite your best intentions you find yourself in one or more of the following situations then this book is for you:
Glenn Livingston, Ph.D. is a veteran psychologist and was the long time CEO of a multi-million dollar consulting firm which has serviced several Fortune 500 clients in the food industry. You may have seen his (or his company's) previous work, theories, and research in major periodicals like The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Chicago Sun Times, The Indiana Star Ledger, The NY Daily News, American Demographics, or any of the other major media outlets you see on this page. You may also have heard him on ABC, WGN, and/or CBS radio, or UPN TV.
Disillusioned by what traditional psychology had to offer overweight and/or food obsessed individuals, Dr. Livingston spent several decades researching the nature of bingeing and overeating via work with his own patients AND a self-funded research program with more than 40,000 participants. Most important, however, was his own personal journey out of obesity and food prison to a normal, healthy weight and a much more lighthearted relationship with food.
