#102- to the girls with disordered eating, here is how to heal

“no-one is going to come and save you from this. you have to choose for yourself if you want to heal.”

today, we are going to chat about a topic that is near to my heart: disordered eating. 

I have been everywhere with my relationship with food. from a normal relationship food, to macro/calorie tracking, to an eating disorder, to binge/emotional eating, to now, intuitively and mindfully eating…I am here to say I made it, and you can too. 

I occasionally eat chocolate for breakfast, do not avoid bread or sugar if I am craving it, and can (for the most part) understand my hunger and fullness cues. not to mention I lost weight and inflammation…by healing my relationship with food. I know it sounds too good to be true.

this episode is for the girls who are struggling with a restrictive eating disorder, emotional/binge eating, or a disordered relationship with food. before you say: “I do not have a disordered relationship with food!” let me ask you a few things.

1. do you think about food a lot

2. do you purposely make/eat small or low-calorie portions

3. lying about “not liking ____  food” when you honestly do…

4. do family/friends comment (out of worry and love) of your food choices being not enough…

5. weird food rules (timing of food, not eating XYZ…) only to binge when you do “break the rules”

6. does food determine your self-worth

7. obsessive macro/calorie tracking (yes, even if it in your head)

8. restrict during the day to overeat at night

9. use food as a coping mechanism

10. not able to feel (or understand) your hunger and fullness cues

you are NORMAL. you are NOT BROKEN. I have been in your shoes. and I want to help. whether you are in the depths of an ED, constantly emotionally eating, or wanting to lose weight but those diets are not sustainable, we need to focus on your relationship with food above all else.

so this episode is all about understanding the signs of a disordered relationship with food and how to heal. no, it is not going to be easy. but if I did it, so can you!
