5 Key Elements of Successful Eating Disorder Treatment

If you suffer from an eating disorder or obesity and are searching for a solution, it’s important to know that not all help is equal. Eating disorder treatment is extremely expensive ($1,000 a day) and so is on-going therapy. And how can you be sure that the treatment you are seeking will work?

Having been helping people with eating disorders, weight loss and addictions for 20 years, and having overcome an eating disorder myself, I have identified 5 key points that I believe are crucial for successful treatment. When researching your options, have this checklist available. The closer your options come to meeting these criteria, the better your chance of success.

1. Be cautious of “cures”.

Despite having lived free from the food problem for 20 years I don’t consider myself cured. “Cured” is a tricky term so I suggest that before you buy anyone’s claim to “cure” you of your eating disorder you do a little detective work. An anorexic who gains weight and a bulimic stop stops purging may be considered “cured”. So may an obese person who loses significant weight.

My experience with all eating disorders is that eliminating the immediate symptom does not end the more persistent compulsion and obsession with food and weight – another significant component of the problem. A life time of obsession and dependence on the eating disorder as a life coping tool cannot be cured in 30 days. This doesn’t mean someone has to struggle with food the rest of their lives either. But recovery requires vigilance in self-awareness and self improvement. Don’t be tempted by a “quick fix”. Seek a real solution based on ongoing inner and outer change and you will come to appreciate the life lessons the eating disorder is here to teach you.

2. Seek help from those who have “been there”.

We have been used to being told by well meaning therapists, doctors, dieticians and coaches to just “eat less, exercise more, moderate your portions, etc.” It’s sound advice but close to impossible to follow at times if you’re a real emotional eater. There is a “disconnect” when you are trying to get help from someone who doesn’t truly know how you feel. Somebody who has not lived the hell you are living (the self-hatred, the insanity of the food obsession and the powerlessness to control oneself, etc.) will have trouble reaching you because in the back of your mind you are thinking: “they don’t really understand”. It’s too easy to tune them out – feeling even more isolated and alone with our problems than ever.

The bottom line is that getting help from those who have actually “been there” and overcome it (that’s important) is the only way to receive help in the deepest way. Not only will the information make sense because it’s based on personal experience and not book knowledge (which has never worked for us) but it will penetrate into our hearts. Our hearts open when we believe that those who are helping us truly understand what we are going through.

3. Help must have a spiritual component.

Much of the help available today primarily addresses the psychological and physical aspects of eating disorders. Unfortunately, this isn’t enough. People spend years in therapy and working with dieticians yet continue to harm themselves with food. Their brains are filled with sound psychological insight as well as information about calories, exercise, eating schedules and nutrition, yet they continue to give in to cravings for hamburgers and ice cream!

The truth is that eating disorders, emotional eating and addictions are driven by a soul-sickness that no amount of intellectual understanding or personal will power can heal. A person must be given spiritual tools they can use and rely on when their own personal resources fail. It’s important to note that there is a difference between spirituality and religion, and in this case I’m suggesting the use of the former. By being encouraged to cultivate a belief in a higher power that is loving and ever-available for support and strength, a person can begin to depend on that power for the intervention and grace that can help them stop their destructive behavior.

4. The solution must address the underlying causes.

There is no hope of overcoming an eating disorder without looking beyond the eating disorder. Obsession with food and weight and other addictions are symptoms of deeper problems. They conveniently distract us from extreme unhappiness and self-loathing that lie underneath the surface. Any treatment program that focuses on primarily on food, body image and weight management is missing the point.

A person must be supported in looking at the cause of the self-loathing and subsequent self-destruction. (We don’t ever just happen to hate ourselves.) We are engaging in destructive thoughts and actions that cause us to believe we deserve punishment. By changing these thoughts and actions (most of which have little to do with food and body) we can feel deserving of better self-care. Anyone who has struggled for more than a few years with an eating disorder, if honest, will be able to admit that their problem really isn’t about food. Finding a program that reinforces this and addresses the real problem is essential.

5. Recovery includes changing your life.

How we live determines how we feel about ourselves. How we feel about ourselves determines how we eat. Therefore, in order to eat differently we have to live differently. Many treatment centers consider a person to be “cured”, or well on their way, if their symptoms of anorexia, bulimia or obesity lessen while in treatment. (If anorexic, they gain a few pounds; if bulimic, their episodes decrease or stop; and if obese, they lose some weight.) The problem is that they eventually have to leave treatment and return to the same life that perpetuated or caused their problem in the first place. This is why relapse is so common.

Eating disorders are a symptom of living a life that is severely out of balance. Recovery comes when a person makes concrete, significant changes in her life. Change must be deeper than body behavior and diet. Change includes communication, thoughts, relating to people, priorities and attitude. There is no 30 day program that will automatically cause a person to overcome an eating disorder or help a person lose weight for good. It is the hard, but necessary, ongoing changes in one’s life that enable a person to break free. Be sure that the help you seek isn’t skin-deep. There is no success without a commitment to real life change.

Bonus: It needs to work!

“Does the treatment work?” Believe it or not, people forget to consider this critical question when evaluating options. They also forget to ask this of themselves after receiving help. People turn to treatment centers, doctors and counselors for answers but never stop to ask if the help they are receiving is actually making a dent in their actual behaviors. They may feel comforted, supported and heard, but is it actually changing their symptoms? And if the answer is “yes”, ask how much are the symptoms changing. Most people feel that going from purging 7 times a day to 3 is good enough. But how good can one’s quality of life be when one is still purging (or bingeing) at all? I am well aware that progress of any kind is never to be discounted. However, I have had the privilege of routinely witnessing people’s symptoms being removed completely. In light of the knowledge that a person can be totally free of their eating disorder, settling for “a little less self-destruction” doesn’t seem like such a great deal after all. Be sure that the help you’re seeking isn’t just a “feel-good” measure, but an actual solution that shows results.

These 5 (and a bonus) key elements for seeking help for eating disorders are crucial for true success. Many people search for decades and spend thousands of dollars on programs that don’t give them results. It’s easy to let the desperation of this disease drive you to spend money now and ask questions later. It’s important to let your head and intuition – not your emotions– make your decision. You deserve to be (and can be) totally free from your problems. While only you can issue the permit for freedom, getting the right help along the way can make all the difference in the world.

Eating Five Small Meals Or Snacks Per Day

The second principle of weight loss and weight management requires you to outthink your body. You were born with a whole set of innate survival tools. Many of our body’s survival tools and mechanisms rely on stored fat. Way back when, we were hunters and gatherers, and because of this our food intake tended to be inconsistent. Coaxing your most primitive survival mechanisms into releasing your stored fat will require some conscious planning on your part. Eating five small meals or snacks every 2½ to 3 hours every day for the rest of your life is a very important component of permanent weight management. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were structured for us so that we could farm, hunt, fight wars, and work in offices and manufacturing plants- however, eating three large meals per day is not how our bodies want to be fed.

All of us were born with a starvation protection device, and it is hardwired into our cells to ensure our survival. If you go too long between meals, this primitive survival instinct does not know that food is as close as the refrigerator or the next convenience store. Your body simply thinks it is starving. Consequently, it will expend only a minimal amount of energy to fuel the most basic bodily functions and store the rest as fat. When you finally get around to eating again, your body(which is in survival mode) will store much of that food in your fat cells for later use. To coax your body into releasing this stored fat, you must remove its fear of famine. Your starvation protection mechanism must never be allowed to go into action. Your body must never think it is being starved. If you can relax the starvation protection mechanism, you will have great success. If you do not, your efforts will be futile.

Timing, as they say, is everything. The quickest way to activate your natural fat-burning ability centers on the timing of your meals. Your starvation protection mechanism can be lulled into a sense of security only if it is reassured that your body is being fed. Instead of eating the traditional three big meals, I want you to eat five smaller meals or snacks throughout the day.

Again, this is about activating your natural body fat-burning furnace. It is essential that you eat your first meal or snack within sixty­minutes of waking up and a small meal or snack every 2½ to 3 hours. Without a doubt, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Many of us go without breakfast and, as a result, rob ourselves of the most fundamental step to jumpstart our metabolism into high gear. After a Full night of rest and many hours without food, the body needs to be fueled as soon as possible. When we go without this vital meal, we are robbing ourselves of the opportunity to fuel the furnace of our metabolism. The only exception is if you are going to do an aerobic workout immediately upon waking. Then you can wait until after you exercise because you will be utilizing primarily your fat stores as an energy, source, which is what we want to do.

The objective is to speed up your metabolism to its highest possible level, burning all the fuel you put into the furnace quickly and completely. When you eat a small meal shortly after waking, you jump-start your metabolism. After 2½ to 3 hours, your body will have used up that fuel and you will need to replenish your fuel source. I can’t say it often enough: to keep your metabolism on its highest setting, eat five small meals or snacks throughout the day.

If you eat five small meals or snacks throughout the day and at roughly the same time each day, your body will soon get into a new rhythm of eating. In essence, it will begin to trust that it will be fed regularly. It will begin to trust that it does not have to lock down what is held in storage within your fat cells, and it will begin to release body fat naturally. Your body will adjust so that it expends what you eat for fuel rather than conserve or store away nutrients for later use. This is the process of speeding up your metabolism.

Healthy Eating and the hCG Protocol

The hCG hormone is a powerful tool that has helped millions of people achieve significant amounts of weight loss very rapidly – up to 40 pounds in 40 days for most who follow the protocol closely. Receiving the hCG injections alone, however, will not provide such dramatic results with weight loss; it is equally important to introduce a healthy diet and exercise regimen that can be adopted as part of your lifestyle and can continue after the hCG injections are completed.

Using hCG to help with your weight loss needs is a way to quickly reduce your risks of high blood pressure, Type II Diabetes and heart disease while avoiding high risk, invasive surgery. But the hCG protocol is designed to work with your ongoing efforts toward a healthier, more balanced lifestyle. You cannot continue taking hCG injections forever, so while you are rapidly losing weight using hCG, you should also be focusing on changing your lifestyle to incorporate healthier habits.

There are several healthy changes you can make right away that will make a tremendous difference in the results of your hCG treatment. First, remove the obvious temptations from your cupboards – things like cookies, candy, white bread, and potato chips. Second, keep prepared vegetables and whole fruits available and ready to eat. Finally, find ways to add whole grain and fiber to your diet. Whole grain and fiber help you feel full faster, help eliminate toxins and waste from your body, and help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Healthy eating is a critical component of healthy weight loss regardless of what treatment you choose. It can be difficult to change eating habits, but to make it easier, begin keeping a food diary. If you can identify what triggers overeating, you may be able to find other ways to address the trigger. For example, if you often eat in the afternoon at work because you are sleepy or anxious to be done with your day, you can take a ten-minute break and walk around the building (or around the block) and achieve the same relief without increasing your caloric intake.

If you are a nighttime muncher who likes to watch TV to unwind but mindlessly consume hundreds of extra calories, keep prepped vegetables in your fridge that you can grab when you are at your weakest point. Not only is increasing your vegetable consumption a great way to radically change your health but you can eat a lot of veggies without negatively impacting your weight loss efforts.

As you begin your hCG protocol, be sure you are working with a treatment center that will provide you with the support and education you need to achieve your weight loss goals. The treatment center should help you learn how to change your eating and exercise habits in addition to guiding you through the protocol. Nutrition or diet specialists should be available to help you learn how to change your eating habits in order to obtain the most benefit from your weight loss treatment.

Good Eating Habits for Weight Loss Success

Most people in our nation gain weight because of bad eating habits and a non-active lifestyle.

Obesity is one of the biggest problems faced by millions of people in America. This has resulted in a big weight loss corporate industry in the country like Weight watchers, Jenny Craig and many others. Although there are good programs, I feel people can themselves do quite a bit to reduce their weight. The two major factors in weight loss are exercise and controlled diet. I have put together several points which will be useful to individuals looking to reduce their weight.

1. Eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables every day. Most fruits are low in calories and make you full sooner. Not to mention the other vitamins and fibers they also contain.

2. Read those nutrition fact labels: It is a good idea to know how many calories you are consuming. Some foods combo’s can be deceptive, for example if you are having a plate of salad topped with lot of high calorie dressing and a soda, they you have just had more calories then you might get from a combination of grilled chicken sandwich (with no cheese and dressing) plus diet soda. So be smart with what you eat. Prefer home cooked food as much as possible.

3. Eating smaller frequent meals will also help you cut down the total intake of calories compared to 3 big meals a day.

4. Give yourself a break: Being too restrictive can anyway demotivate you, so to give yourself regular breaks. But do not over-eat at the same time, be conservative and try to make up for it in other meals.

5. Drinks: Soda, juice, cream are all loaded with sugars which we usually do not account into out diet plan. Drink water instead.

6. Exercise: Do not always depend on your car for everything, walk wherever you can. Go hiking and those backpacks help to burn extra calories. Make friends who have a active lifestyle, join gym or get a treadmill in your home. Remember to increase your exercise in a progressive manner day by day instead of doing strenuous exercise from day one. Be practical on what your body can take and avoid overexertion.

7. Get motivation: Talk to people who have had success in weight loss and they will give you a lot of inspiration.

8. Get enough sleep, reduce stress and live happy.

9. Reward yourself when you reach your monthly weight loss milestones.

10. Never give up, even if you have failed a few times previously.

I am not an expert so it is advisable to consult your doctor before starting any weight loss effort and they will also tell you if you have any medical condition that may prevent you to follow these tips.

Weight Loss Benefits Of Eating A Healthy Breakfast

The saying suggests ‘Eat breakfast like a Queen, lunch like a princess and supper like a poor man’ and it is correct! According to clinical trials by the American Dietetic Association starting your day with a hearty breakfast can influence your rate of weight loss.

Yet although all these statistics point to the contrary, over 33% of slimmer’s still think that avoiding breakfast can help them to lose excess fat, when the harsh reality is: it won’t help you to lose weight!

A 1994 study for example discovered that children who avoid breakfast are twice as likely to become overweight when they are adults than children who regularly consume breakfast…

Is there an alternative?

Avoid the difficulty to consume less food and recognize why introducing a hearty breakfast into your weight loss plan, can in fact give you:

1.    Improved energy – a good breakfast can easily boost your metabolic rate (after your night time ‘fast’) and establish the momentum of your energy burn for the whole day. Without a regular in-flow of sugar, your organs cannot function effectively causing you to worn out, irritable and restless.

2.    Decreased bad cholesterol levels – trials by UK University Nottingham University has discovered, missing breakfast can contribute to increased bad cholesterol levels due to silly eating decisions for the entire day. However, eat a healthy breakfast enriched in fiber (oatmeal, citrus fruits and strawberries) and you can efficiently decrease your cholesterol levels and keep them under wraps.

3.    Increase excess weight loss -a trial by the National Weight Control Registry has discovered that 80% of individuals who lose 30 pounds or more consume breakfast every morning

4.    Improved work performance – make the decision to ingest breakfast first thing in the day and you can witness better concentration, improved memory retention and improved problem-solving abilities

Of course, all of these health improvements only really count if you can bypass the indulgences of ingesting buttered pastries, fried sausages and meals that have high quantities of sugar, fat and calorie content…

To attain credible weight loss you must concentrate on filling a good, healthy cereal where you can easily include bananas, apples, mango,  low fat yoghurt, low fat milk and oatmeal into your toppings – essentially all you could need to jumpstart your metabolism.

Yet, should you find it difficult to consume a breakfast every morning; the assistance of a herbal pill such as clinically proven Proactol can help you to escape the temptations of unhealthy dietary habits and still lose weight. Proven to bind up to 28% of your dietary fat intake whilst curbing your cravings, Proactol can help you to lower your calorie intake by 150 calories per meal; diminish your food cravings and decrease your LDL levels.
