If you are exhausted from the cycle of restrictive dieting and emotional bingeing, it’s time to hear the truth: Your lack of willpower isn’t the problem. And neither is the food.

In Food Isn’t the Problem, Tanya Fasnacht Jolliffe (RDN, LD, CIMHP) challenges everything you’ve been taught about weight management and self-control. Instead of punishing yourself for reaching for comfort foods, Tanya reveals how chronic stress, hidden emotions, and your own brain chemistry actually “hijack” your decision-making. Food isn’t your enemy; it is simply a highly trained coping mechanism for unprocessed fear, anger, sadness, and even joy.

Drawing on her extensive background in holistic nutrition and nutrition counseling, Tanya offers a refreshing, anti-diet approach. She bridges the gap between your biology and your psychology, providing the ultimate guide to emotional wellness and mindful eating.

Through relatable client stories and cutting-edge behavioral science, this compassionate, no-BS guide will provide the nutrition support you need to learn how to:

Identify the “Imposter”: Distinguish between a biological fire (physical hunger) and an emotional hijack.

Decode Your Cravings: Understand the hidden meaning behind your exact cravings (and why you reach for crunchy versus creamy foods).

Rewire Your Brain: Use Tanya’s signature “Name It, Claim It, Reframe It” framework to stop a binge in its tracks.

Build Healthy Habits: Create custom “Comfort” and “Dopamine” Menus to soothe your nervous system without opening the pantry.

As the founder of LITwellness Solutions, Tanya has helped countless individuals and corporate employee wellness programs implement the principles of sustainable living and health & wellness. Now, she brings that same transformative nutrition counseling directly to you.

More than just a diet book, Food Isn’t the Problem is a roadmap to lasting weight loss and self-compassion. It’s time to trade self-judgment for curiosity, step out of the passenger seat, and finally cross the bridge to a healthy relationship with food.
