    Almost every time that someone comes to me looking for help with their binge eating, they tell me, ‘They've tried everything’. And in the end, the problem has only gotten worse.

    You may be struggling like this, too, wondering why everything you try and do to help your situation never truly gets better.

    After working with many clients and digging into it, I’ve teased out what I feel are the top five things that almost everyone who struggles with binge eating has tried at some point. Whether you’re trying low carb or macro counting, maybe it’s who you seek help with. I’m not just talking about these reasons but explaining WHY they aren’t helping you.

    Make sure to tune in. You’ll be interested in hearing point 5, which could make your binge eating worse.

  • Eating like a “normal person”… what is it, and why is it so hard for some people to do?
    Sep 10 2024

    Send me a note via text!

    "I just want to eat like a normal person"

    This is what women who struggle with a toxic relationship with food often say... and who can blame them!? Struggling with your relationship with food SUCKS and it adds an unnecessary burden to one's life. It's completely reasonable for someone to want normalcy in their life when they haven't experienced it for years, maybe even decades.

    So how do we reach this fantasy land of eating like normal?

    I've got some insights for you (from my closet today, lol) on what's happening in the brain which is making it extra hard for some to be a "normal eater", and what we need to do to fix it. 🧠

  • When All You Want is Sweets 🍭
    Jul 30 2024

    Send me a note via text!

    Does it seem like ALL you ever crave is sweets?

    The advice of “listen to your body” might feel like a 1-way ticket to a sugar coma. So what do you do when you’re sick of dieting, but you also don’t want to be out of control with sugar?

    Let’s chat through what you need to know to in order to have body cues that work for you instead of against you.

    There are challenges many people face when trying to implement intuitive eating, like how to differentiate between emotional vs physical cravings and discover the logistics of mindful eating (without the ’woo-woo’).

    We’ll discuss the issue of missing hunger and fullness cues and how to build a dietary lifestyle that includes the foods you love, like sweets.

    Get ready to feel less sugar crazy 🍬😵‍💫 and more in control. 💪🏼
