ARE NUMBERS RUINING YOUR NUTRITIONAL HEALTH? Take a moment and consider how powerful numbers are in your life. Have you noticed that when the numbers in your bank account reach a certain low – you feel disempowered or afraid? And when those same bank account numbers hit a certain high, our entire outlook can completely change. But notice that on one level, all that changed was a number, and our life was hugely impacted. Well, that same powerful influence of numbers lives in our relationship with food and health. Perhaps the place where we are most moved by numbers in the nutrition universe is the number on the scale. When it goes up, we can feel like a failure. We might then choose to intensely diet, or do extreme exercise. We might binge and purge, or avoid any kind of dietary fat. Tune in as Emily Rosen, Director of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, shares some great insights on this fascinating topic. Watch this great new video from #IPEtv here. In the comments below, please let us know: Have you given any of your power away to the belief that a certain target weight or a certain number of calories consumed can bring you ultimate happiness? And if so, how can you take your power back?
