About Hungry Heart

By the time many of our clients have reached The Hungry Heart, they feel like they have tried everything and they’ve had it. The same behaviors that drive us to be successful in parts of our personal and professional life also lead us to having problems with food. Why? When there is a problem we will give 150% to resolve it. If we don’t know how to fix it and don’t accept that we can’t resolve it on our own, we feel frustrated and stuck. When we feel stuck, we will often use food to temporarily block out the pain and frustration of not knowing how to fix the situation. As long as we need food to help us deal with what is emotionally going on in our lives, it doesn’t matter what diet or program we try because eventually we will go back to the food. We have to learn to process our feelings and emotions so we don’t turn to food and use it as a tool to deal with what is going on in our lives.
