The word ‘need’ is the one that jumps out and smacks me across the face in this profound statement

Sometimes when we (ok … I) do eat what we (me again) don’t need – what we (& me) actually need is to work through what’s going on in our heads or our hearts or wherever it is that our feelings and emotions hide (interestingly I don’t believe it’s in our tummies) – harder to do that hooking into a chunk of brie and a glass of red – but more worthwhile – and doesn’t have the ‘post-binge’ guilt associated with it.

I love the simplicity of your advice Craig – see you Sunday

Ah Craig,
if only it was that easy. Food is made out to be a God.
When someone is being sexually abused where is the help? Food is there to comfort,hide,make it better..
Food is there when another human being cant be.
Advertising bomards our brains daily telling us “only good parents, give their kids this” and we all want to be good parents.
Same as ” your not beautiful unless your underweight and have one foot in the grave from starvation” or taking the “new” designer drug
I can give up smoking as i dont need it to live but food well maybe i can live on my fat stores for a while but sooner or later Im going to need it.
Maybe what you said is the truth but how many can achieve it?

“You can starve to death by reading a cook book.”
Ive been doing a lot of this. Attending courses with 100 great points ( all very interesting but for me perhaps a distraction from concentrating on a few key questions.) so these short hard hitting posts recently have been great for me Craig. Asking better questions is very important. Im looking forward to the Dumbell Rack of Life Part 2- part 1 was great.
Cheers, Dean
