This show is kinda about eating disorders but not all the way.
Does food make some people feel better? Does it substitute for other deficiencies in people's lives?

Recently I put out a question on Facebook dealing with this situation: I just heard a conversation between two women in the fitness room and one of them was saying that she gained a lot of weight because she didn't have a man for a long time.

Huh? Loneliness = weight gain?

Can someone explain this logic to me?

One of the things that many responders eluded to was that the woman in this example probably compensated her loneliness with food. Is this true? Can that work? Are there many people who resort to this?

Can eating unhealthy foods make a person feel better emotionally? If so, why does it have to be the unhealthy foods that do the trick? When does it stop? Is it a woman thing? Do men go through this as well? If men go through the same thing then is it for the same reasons?
Will men or women change their lifestyle when or if they get what they have been missing?

We'll get into these things and more and we'll also talk about turning all of this around and how eating nutritional foods can also cause emotional problems.

This show will be the absolute bomb! Tell some friends.
