You don’t need to earn the right to eat by exercising 🙂‍↔️ Your body needs a lot of food just to fuel the essential body processes, like keeping your heart pumping and your lungs breathing. So even if you haven’t done much physical activity, your body is still using a lot of energy! You deserve to nourish your body without feeling guilty 💗

If you asked someone to describe what a dietitian looks like, I’m pretty sure that one of the words they would use is ‘thin’. When I was a student, I thought that I had to be thin in order for people to take me seriously as a dietitian. Over time, I learned that it’s actually really important that people see dietitians in a range of body shapes and sizes! As a small-fat dietitian, I’m an example to my clients of how nourishing your body and having a healthy relationship with food doesn’t depend on being a certain size or shape 🙂‍↔️

On this I want to offer a message of kindness and care to any of my larger-bodied colleagues who have felt judged for their size. I’m always here to talk if you want to reach out 🤗

As you go on your diet-free journey, remember that all parts of your experience are valid. It’s normal to feel stuck or feel like you’re in a tug of war between dieting and not dieting. Keep in mind that just because diet culture tells you that you should be trying to lose weight, it doesn’t meant you have to act on that. If letting go of dieting aligns with your values, then keep going on your diet-free journey and treat yourself with compassion in those hard times.

If you’re trying to eat intuitively to help you lose weight, you’re probably just dieting again. Intuitive eating is about connecting with your body to eat in a way that supports a healthy relationship with food. Trying to lose weight ruptures this connection, because it forces you to make eating decisions from a place of deprivation rather than honouring what your body needs and wants.

Remember, you don’t have to try to lose weight in order to feel better about your body. You can heal your relationship with your body even if your body size doesn’t change. If you need support with this, our team of non-diet dietitians are here to help.

The diet industry profits off you thinking that your body is a problem that needs fixing, by they’re selling false hope. Your body is good enough exactly as it is. Regardless of your body shape or size, you deserve freedom from food rules and body shame.

What does it mean to be a non-diet dietitian? For me, it means that I care about someone’s relationship to food and eating, not just what and how much they eat. It means supporting my clients to eat in a way that helps them feel well physically AND mentally. It means freedom from food rules and body shame… for myself and well as my clients!

It’s not ok to assume that a fat person is unfit based purely on their size. For all you know, they could be fitter than the thin person standing next to them 💪🏼 Even if someone in a larger body isn’t that fit or strong, it doesn’t mean they’re a less worthy person.

People of all body shapes and sizes can benefit from engaging in movement and deserve support to do so if they want to. If you want to explore moving your body in a non-diet way, I recommend getting in touch with Ellen at .movement.space or Deb at .and.movement ☺️

If you’ve worked hard to overcome a restrictive eating disorder, it can feel really scary to feel out of control with eating. I promise that it’s not your body working against you! It’s actually a very normal experience and it makes sense when you consider that your body is trying to keep you alive.

If you’ve barely survived a ‘famine’ (which is what restriction feels like to your body), your body is going to do whatever it can to be better prepared for the next famine. That means eating as much as it can when it has the chance. To calm things down, you need to reassure your body that there isn’t going to be another famine. The way to do that is to keep eating regularly and adequately so that your body trusts that there will always be food.

I know that it’s scary, but you can do it! If you need support right now to navigate recovery, you can reach out to today by calling 1800 ED HOPE 🦋

I understand that the pressure right now to be thin can feel overwhelming, even if someone has been diet-free for a while. It’s no wonder so many people are considering weight loss injections. I’m against the diet culture that tells people they should be losing weight, not the individual exposed to that culture.

If someone is curious about trying weight loss injections, they should be able to talk about it openly with their care provider without feeling shamed. For me, this means sharing information with my clients and answering their questions in a non-judgemental way to help them make informed choices.

🌼 Reflection prompt 🌼 What would caring for your body look and feel like if the focus wasn’t on shrinking it? How could you show up for yourself in a more caring way if you weren’t trying to lose weight? Just something to think about if you’re feeling stuck in the diet cycle at the moment 🙂

Here’s something the diet industry doesn’t want you to know: Most people who lose weight by dieting end up regaining all they weigh they lose. In fact, weight regain is actually your body trying to protect your health.

Why doesn’t the diet industry want you to know this? Because selling (short term) weight loss to people is a billion dollar industry, and as long as you think weight regain is YOUR failure, you’ll be tempted back to spend more money.

There’s a lot to gain from letting go of dieting! It’s not always easy, but it’s worth it for the food freedom ⭐️
