Many of my weight loss clients have been overweight since they were children. I discover that their parents had problems, maybe depression, or were simply controlling or over-protective .Traumatic events or even harsh words have affected my clients. Typically, they lack confidence and feel bad about themselves. To compensate for this, they self medicate with food.
To help these clients I have to resolve the issues from their childhood that have been a burden to them all their lives. Once we have done this together, they can make the changes in their lives that they have been trying to make for so long.
