In one of the most powerful conversations ever recorded on The Life Possible Podcast, Dr. Rob Cywes—internationally known as "The Carb Addiction Doc." goes deep into the emotional and psychological roots of obesity, addiction, and healing. With raw honesty, deep empathy, and unapologetic clarity, Dr. Cywes breaks down why most weight-loss strategies fail, why obesity is not a moral failing, and how true recovery begins with understanding addiction, not willpower.

We explore the neurobiology of carb addiction and why emotional management is the missing link in long-term success. If you've ever struggled with your weight, judged yourself harshly, or wondered why you can’t “just stick to a diet,” this episode is for you.

Get ready for truth, hope, and a pathway to freedom.
