Tired of Dieting and Obsessing About Food and Your Body?
Does this sound like you?
I’m ALWAYS trying to lose weight
Even if I’m not on an “official” diet, I think A LOT about what I’m going to eat or try NOT eat or how I’ll “work off” the calories I’ve eaten
I can’t pass a mirror without focusing on my physical flaws
I’ve spent more money, time, and energy on “fixing” the way I eat and my body than I want to admit
I keep losing the same (fill in the number) pounds, over and over again.
I don’t trust myself around food.
I believe if I just tried harder I could lose weight and keep it off.
If this is you, I can relate. I spent decades of my life chasing the “diet dream,” and thinking if I could just find the right diet and have the willpower I need, then I would magically know how to eat, lose weight, and love my body. I want you to know that your diet, your willpower (or lack of it), and your body are NOT the problem!
Diet culture IS the problem.
The constant bombardment of messages — about dieting and weight loss, about ideal bodies and how to achieve them, and even about wellness and health — are the problem!
The scientific fact that 95% of diets DO NOT WORK over the long term IS the problem!
If the Covid vaccine was only 5% effective, would you get the shot and expect it to protect you? Of course not! So why do we keep dieting in spite of the lack of efficacy?
I’m here to tell you, there’s a better way. It’s called Intuitive Eating and I can help you learn how to do it!
INTUITIVE EATING OVERVIEW
Intuitive Eating is an internally focused, compassionate, self-care framework that promotes holistic health - good health in the body, the mind, and the soul — and treats all bodies with dignity and respect. Intuitive Eating helps you re-connect to the inner cues your body provides about what, when, and how much to eat.
Intuitive Eating is the polar opposite of diet culture, which attempts to focus on external measures (like telling you how you should look and what, when, and how much to eat).
Diet culture has disconnected you from your internal “food compass” and eating intuitively helps you find your “True North” setting, pointing you toward yourself instead of diet culture.
