Dr. Glenn Livingston is a veteran psychologist and was the long time CEO of a multi-million-dollar consulting firm for Fortune 500 clients in the food industry. You may have seen his (or his company’s) previous work, theories, and research in major media outlets like The New York Times, ABC, or CBS radio, among many others.Disillusioned by what traditional psychology had to offer overweight and food obsessed individuals, Dr. Livingston spent several decades researching the nature of bingeing and overeating in working with his own patients AND a self-funded research program with more than 40,000 participants. Most importantly was his own personal journey out of obesity and food prison to a normal, healthy weight and a much more lighthearted relationship with food.Topics discussed in this episode:Glenn's personal story with overeating and binge eatingWhy the modern world is a perfect storm for overeating and binge eatingPractical strategies people can use to stop overeatingStarting with just ONE rule for the most troublesome trigger food or behaviorWhy rules and a personal food plan are liberating, not restrictiveWhy generalizations like "just eat everything in moderation" are not helpfulWhy we should strive for perfectionism (with a caveat)How someone trying to GAIN weight would use this approachThe difference between HUNGER and CRAVINGSChallenging clients and situations that required a more intense approachDealing with overeating on the weekends!The one thing Dr. Livingston wished he learned earlier in lifeThe one question Glenn wished I'd asked...and his answerWhere to get a copy of his free book, "Never Binge Again"RELATED LINKSBinge Eating Recovery Coaching, Books, Tutorials and More at NeverBingAgain.comDr. Glenn Livingston on InstagramWatch the episode on video hereSupport the show📱 Get Fitness Lab - Philip’s science-based AI app for fat loss, muscle building, and strength training for people over 40.
