Description

Do you still feel obsessed or out of control with food, even though you’re not dieting anymore? This is SUPER frustrating, I know. 

 

In this episode, I’m breaking down why so many women still feel chaotic around food even after quitting dieting, and why intuitive eating can feel confusing, frustrating, or “like it’s not working.”

 

Before you throw in the towel and go back to your low carb diet or counting calories, listen to this episode. It might change everything for you. 

 

We’ll talk about:

  • The sneaky ways diet culture lives on in your thoughts and food guilt
  • Why you might still feel addicted to food even when you're eating what you want
  • The difference between real permission to eat and performative permission
  • How to rebuild self-trust with food when you still feel like you can’t be trusted

If you’re stuck in the “I’m not dieting, but I’m still obsessing” stage, this episode will help you understand what’s really going on and how to move forward (rather than backwards into your old dieting habits that keep you stuck).
