“Success means doing the best we can with what we have. Success is the doing, not the getting-in trying, not the triumph. Success is a personal standard-reaching for the highest that is in us-becoming all that we can be. If we do our best, we are a success. Success is the maximum utilization of the ability that you have.” -Zig Ziglar, Motivational Speaker & Author

Today’s guest on the Losing Weight to Gain Control Podcast is Jessica Procini. Jessica is on a mission to help high-achieving women who are change makers heal the roots of their emotional eating so they can use food as fuel rather than a way to cope, soothe and attempt to escape their busy, stressful life.
From over a decade of research into the Psychology of Eating and her own personal emotional eating journey, Jessica consciously created her uniquely effective Escape From Emotional Eating process and programs because Overeaters Anonymous didn't resonate with her and the 932 hours she spent in therapy never helped her end her fight with food. Jessica knew there needed to be a different kind of support...one that got to the roots of emotional eating.
Now being 100% free from her compulsions with food, Jessica helps other high-achieving women do the same through all her levels of support such as her year-long transformational programs, her retreats called the ESCAPE and through her various public talks, events and workshops.
Jessica and her work have received awards from the Institute of Psychology of Eating three years in a row. She has appeared in various media outlets such as ABC, CBS, and MindBodyGreen.

In today’s episode, Gwen shares how she has noticed how she noticed she has been comparing her looks and her life to others on social media. These were actions that would lead her to eat to numb these feelings. Listen to learn how to handle the comparison feeling without using food.
Comparing ourselves to others is not new. Before social media, many of us probably compared our looks to people in a magazine. We may have compared our lives to others lives and felt they are doing better than we are. Social media has made it “easier” to compare how we look and our lives to others.
