Tonya shares her personal struggle with trichotillomania, highlighting new coping strategies, like taking calming walks, to manage anxiety without turning to food. They also explore how grief and emotional triggers can lead to unhealthy eating patterns, sharing ways to build positive, lasting habits for long-term weight loss success.
