Brutal Truth About Weight Loss: Cheat Days and Long-Term Success | Dr. Joel Fuhrman

The Exam Room by the Physicians Committee

The brutal truth about weight loss is that we are addicted to the foods that are killing us.

"Your addiction is more important [than living]," according to Dr. Joel Fuhrman. "When a person says, 'I'd rather die than eat [healthy]. Just shoot me right now. Can't enjoy food anymore?!'"

Learn about the power the mind plays in preventing you from shedding the pounds you want and living a healthier, more rewarding life.

Dr. Fuhrman joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll for a powerful conversation on food addiction from the NHA Conference in Cleveland.

In This Episode:

- Is food as powerful as drugs on the mind?

- Why just an extra 5% effort can be the breakthrough for long-term weight loss.

- Why do you feel sick when starting to eat healthier at first?

- Does fat really stick to the hips?

- How long before you begin to feel better?

- What are realistic expectations for weight loss?

- Is your diet contributing to allergies?

- Tips for helping someone begin to eat a plant-based diet.

- Tips for eating healthy while traveling.
