You swore today you’d “stick to the plan.” Instead, you feel like an absolute failure, wondering why you can’t just find the discipline to stop.

In reality, the surge of interest in medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro has highlighted something I’ve seen for years in my private nutritional therapy practice: for many, the struggle with binge eating and emotional eating is deeply physiological, yet has an element of imbalance in hunger and fullness signals. This is why learning how to increase GLP-1 naturally is becoming such a vital tool, as it allows us to address the biological “volume” of hunger and regain control over our eating habits without relying solely on - [Can Ozempic or Mounjaro Stop Binge Eating? Understanding 'Food Noise' and GLP-1 for Binge Eating](https://nutritionpath.co.uk/glp1-for-binge-eating/): If you’ve lived with binge eating or even have a diagnosed binge eating disorder, you likely will understand exactly what food noise is and how overwhelming that can be.

Yet, food noise can feel incredibly stressful, isolating and frustrating.  With the rise in weight loss medications such as Ozempic, Wegowy and Mounjaro, some people report a decrease or even elimination of “food noise” while taking the medication.

If you have ADHD and mornings feel rushed, chaotic or inconsistent, breakfast quality can suffer. Or it may even happen that you skip breakfast altogether or simply default to a cup of coffee instead- energy that - [7 Best Books for Binge Eating Recovery, According to a Binge Eating Specialist](https://nutritionpath.co.uk/best-books-for-binge-eating-recovery/): The best books for binge eating recovery are those that address both food behaviours and the emotional drivers behind them. Evidence-based CBT-E approaches, trauma-informed perspectives, and anti-diet frameworks tend to be the most effective. The right book depends on whether you’re early in recovery, struggling with shame, or working on long-term patterns. If you’re searching for the best books to stop binge eating, chances are you’ve already tried willpower, meal plans, rules or “starting again on Monday” – and none of it has truly helped long term.

Spending more time indoors and less time commuting and socialising doesn’t feel relaxing or instill any confidence if you’re already struggling with your relationship with food.  Food shortages in shops mean that you may need to get extra to stock up or buy foods you normally wouldn’t, just because that’s all that’s available. Not so easy to do if you struggle with extra time on your hands and extra food in the house.  If you know that being stuck indoors or working from home gets a - [8 Hacks to Sweeten Food without using Sugar](https://nutritionpath.co.uk/8-hacks-to-sweeten-food/): Would you love to reduce the amount of sugar in your diet?

Yet, obesity and eating disorders are hitting some of the all-time highest statistics and I can’t help but wonder- if diets worked, would you have to keep doing them over and over?

It doesn’t come from “syns” avoided and it certainly doesn’t come from simply reducing the points you’re “allowed” to have in a day. To some, my 4 steps to portion management may even sound counter-intuitive. The truth is that the more calculation, measuring and weighing (the food and the body) comes into place, the more obsession around food and unhelpful habits, such as compulsive eating, can emerge. From years of working with driven women towards eliminating bingeing, emotional eating and habits of - [How to keep a healthy relationship with food if you live alone](https://nutritionpath.co.uk/healthy-relationship-with-food/): A Wellbeing Index study, compiled in 2018, found that around a third of adults in the UK were routinely eating alone.

It may even drive you to overeat, binge and continuously graze through the day, which can lead you - [15 Subtle signs your body is wired on sugar](https://nutritionpath.co.uk/wired-on-sugar/): Most of us know, that consuming too much sugar is bad news. But unless you live in a beautiful vegan retreat centre somewhere in Southern Spain or cook your own meals from scratch and barely have any interaction with the outside world, you will not be able to avoid sugar in your daily life. Of course, there’s sugar in cakes, biscuits and sweets, but sugar also creeps into other foods that you might not be aware of. Check the label of your favourite stir fry sauce, crackers and even some brands of hummus. Yes, really. Today it’s easier than ever to become a sugar - [Nourishing & Easy Winter Soup Ideas](https://nutritionpath.co.uk/winter-soup-ideas/): Hands up if you love a good soup? I have to admit, I’m a sucker for a well-made soup as it can be so versatile and sometimes you just need a hot steaming bowl of goodness. Soups are a great way to use up unwanted leftovers, to warm up on a chilly day and a clever way to enjoy your 7-a-day when you don’t feel like having salads or raw vegetables.

Even though I am not vegan, I certainly love fairs like this one, that inspire me to think outside the box and stay open to alternatives. I have seen a queue of people, that was certainly getting longer in a few hours I spent there. Could you guess what it was? I was convinced that perhaps it’s a vegan super shake that involves all the necessary nutrients or a - [Why I don’t count calories and neither should you](https://nutritionpath.co.uk/dont-count-calories/): I was 14 when I first started counting calories. Very soon I realised that it was impossible to fit into my ‘daily calorie limit’ and it baffled me how rigid and restrictive I had to be. Oh yes, cake was definitely out of the question back then. My first encounters with calorie counting sadly turned into years of yo-yo dieting, binge-eating and emotional eating. And that’s not just me: this tale is as old as calorie counting itself. So what is it about calories that’s so appealing?
