Truth about FOOD ADDICTIONS!

I have come to realize that our behaviors in regards to our food consumption are addictive. They are addictive physiologically, emotionally, mentally, celebrationally.  You see, the body responds to our thoughts and feelings. Our thoughts and feelings dictated what we choose to eat.

Take for instance the tradition of celebrating something.

  • Birthday: Cake and Ice Cream
  • Wedding: Cake and rich food with alcoholic beverages
  • Funeral: Comfort foods like casseroles, coffee and donuts
  • 4th of July: BBQ hot dogs, hamburgers, watermelon, chips, ice cream and soda.
  • Valentines Day: Chocolate
  • Halloween: Candy
  • Thanksgiving: Abundance of rich foods
  • Christmas: Specialty foods like fancy cookies, pies and a lavish dinner with wine. 
  • New Years: Champagne with finger foods like pettifor cakes and chocolate covered strawberries
  • Superbowl: Pizza, chips, chicken wings and burgers and soda.
  • Business meeting: Coffee and pastries
  • Social meeting with friends: Coffee or beer.
  •  etc. etc. etc. 


We have conditioned ourselves to expect and partake of highly unhealthy foods during our highly emotional and celebrational life moments.

"Because the heart and unconscious mind have been conditioned with the satiating feeling which emotionalizes our thoughts and ego to believe, not only what physiologically and joyfully satisfies us to the full when we eat foods that we are in love with, but, it further gives us great emotional satisfaction that allows us to escape the emotional and physical stresses of the daily grind.

Nothing spoils a person's last meal of the day more than eating foods that the whole mind, body and soul does not want to eat.  

This begs the question: "How can we alter the addictive eating habits that have been so physically, emotionally, and mentally entrenched?"  The AAA Diet by Paul Fanny Ph.D. 

More on this topic to come soon.  Look for our official launch of the program in August, 2017.
