Description

If you’re anything like how I used to be, the holidays can feel like the HARDEST time of year when it comes to food and eating. You feel like you have to choose between being “good” and sticking to your “healthy” eating OR you’re saying “screw it” and promising to start over Jan 1st. In this episode, I’m diving into the real reason why holiday eating feels so chaotic (from a nervous system perspective), and how to eat like a naturally thin woman instead! 

 

I discuss…

  • The most common struggles women have with holiday eating
  • Myths that you’re just “addicted” to food or don’t have enough “willpower”
  • How to not gain weight through the holiday season
  • How your nervous system impacts eating during the holidays 
  • The root causes behind holiday nervous system dysregulation
  • Why naturally thin women don’t struggle with food during the holidays
  • How overeating can provide regulation
  • How restricting can provide regulation
  • 4 steps to eat like a naturally thin woman during the holidays
