Food addiction, comfort, and transfer addiction

TLC personalities like Tammy Slaton Willingham get to where they are/were with their weight issues largely because they find comfort in food. These tend to be individuals who have endured great trauma and find comfort at the bottom of a bowl or plate of food. Some TLC individuals who struggle with weight loss admit they even find comfort in gaining weight by eating because they don’t have to worry about people hurting them if no one likes them because of their size.

Unfortunately, finding comfort in food is a form of addiction, and transfer addiction is a real thing. So, there is always a risk that if Tammy Slaton is able to give up her addiction to the food she will just transfer that addiction elsewhere.
