There are so many ways to lose weight, and no one method works for everyone. Fred Bollaci found what works for him and has dedicated himself to helping others, the Restaurant Diet.

Today, after losing 150 pounds while enjoying gourmet cuisine and keeping it off for five years, Fred is spreading the word on how anyone can live the La Dolce Vita lifestyle, creating and enjoying gourmet meals at home and in great restaurants using the best ingredients available without guilt or excess calories, and offers keen insight on how to kick the habit of emotional overeating for good! (Fred Bollaci Enterprises)

Transform Your Life and Conquer Emotional Eating for GoodOne of the main factors behind Fred's struggle with obesity, since childhood, was emotional eating.

Children may use food to soothe their hurts and sadness, just like adults do. Emotional eating in childhood is often a sign of a bigger problem, as in adults, there can be underlying issues that need work.

If your child is struggling with excess weight, talk to your doctor. Watch for some of the signs of emotional eating such as:

  • Anger
  • Boredom
  • Depression
  • Fatigue
  • Frustration
  • Loneliness
  • Stress
  • Insecurity
  • Sadness
  • Withdrawal

While parents usually have the best of intentions, some may inadvertently contribute to weight issues by rewarding children with food. Using praise and non-food rewards or experiences is a healthier way.
