Episode 102: You’re allowed to want to be lean (and how to get there)
This might be the most controversial episode yet…but as a food freedom coach, I believe that it’s not “disordered” to want to be lean, toned, and thin (as long as you are still within a healthy weight range for you). Today I’m talking about how you don’t have to let go of your weight loss desires in order to heal your relationship with food, and how you can have BOTH. There’s so much nuance to this conversation, so buckle up and let’s dive in!
I discuss…
• My controversial opinion on weight loss as a food freedom coach • How to honor your desire for food freedom AND weight loss • My issues with the body positivity era we’re in • Dangerous narratives being promoted in the “intuitive eating” space right now • Swinging back and forth between restricting and eating “whatever, whenever” • The nuance of weight loss within disordered eating recovery • What creates excess weight in the first place? • How to become lean/thin/toned without obsessive dieting • How to eat like a “naturally lean” woman (not a dieter or wellness influencer)
