“Food freedom” and “intuitive eating” culture often shame women for wanting to lose weight. They tell you to just “accept your body” at any size and focus on eating without any rules. This narrative kept me stuck with excess weight that I felt I had to accept when deep down I knew there was a better way. In this episode, I’m sharing how you can lose “food freedom” weight in a healthy way even if you have a history of disordered eating. I discuss… • Society and food freedom coaches shaming you for wanting to lose weight • Recovering from “ED recovery culture” • The truth about food freedom culture and weight gain • My own journey from food freedom culture to becoming “naturally lean” • How to lose weight in a healthy way if you have a history of disordered eating • Why so many women get stuck in maintaining “recovery” • My version of FULL recovery that includes getting to a weight you enjoy • The step-by-step process to re-train yourself to eat “normally” 🔗 My Links Free Root Cause Identifier Quiz!
