My LTU Journey

[Shannon]

Cravings like that indicate you're processing fear.

I have definitely noticed that, too.  I eat healthy food but I seem to be craving way more food than I normally eat.  Why do you think that it's associated with fear Shannon ?  I really want to get back to my normal eating.

I finished my 3 month block on USLM3, took a week off, and I am now back for my second run of USLM3 with a newly modified goal, and 2 sub-goals.  I will switch to USLM4 when it comes out.  I don't think I need a break before starting USLM4, do I ?

I strongly recommend that you finish at least a 3-month block of LTU5, if that's what you're running.  

Going from LTU5 to USLM4 is not technically going to require a break, since USLM4 is in the script, but you may find that a week off is beneficial.

Ben's response is on point. Eating more is a sort of comfort seeking measure the subconscious will use to "feel better" or "feel safer" sometimes when dealing with fear. I believe this stems from an association of food to safety, security and/or pleasure that we experience very early on (0 to 3 years old), and that that is the level of awareness seeking that extra food as a response to the fear.

Going to USLM4 from LTU5 is going to be significantly unwise until you've finished at least a 3 month block of LTU5, though.
