Let's challenge the idea of forbidden foods and gradually reintroduce them into our lives. It's time to break free from the cycle of restriction and embrace abundance! Learn how in this blog post 🙌🏻

“I need to lose weight, why would I let myself gain it?”

We talked about this in group coaching on Tuesday night- the idea that even though you may not be ‘underweight’ or you may not need to gain weight for your body to be medically stable,

you may need to gain weight to heal your mind. And, even if you’re not ‘underweight’ you very well still can be under eating. It see it all the time.

Especially if you don’t ‘look sick’ (which is a false concept in the first place when it comes to eating disorders and disordered eating) and especially when you’ve gained weight already from binge/emotional/overeating/ED recovery, it is so hard to wrap your head around the idea that you might still need to gain weight.

But hear me out.

Even though you’re not physically at risk because of being at a low weight, mentally you’re in a place that’s incredibly unhealthy.

Beating yourself up for eating, losing control with food and shaming yourself for it, constantly thinking about what you’ll eat next or if it’s the right thing or the right amount or how it’ll effect your body… that is a sickness that needs to be healed.

I’m not saying you’re going to gain weight- in fact, I don’t know what your body is going to do. But what I do know is that allowing yourself to eat through the guidance of a professional and finding freedom with food and body image through this regardless of your weight heals your mind and your body. You deserve this and so much more.

I’m currently accepting clients for my next coaching group starting in June. If this at all resonated with you, then you’d be a great fit for the program! DM me or click the link in my bio for more info :)

Do you ever think… “I’m not dieting, but still bingeing- what’s up with that?!”

There are 2 main reasons that people confuse binge eating (eating in reaction to dieting or diet mentality) with emotional eating (eating for pleasure, soothing or comfort).

1️⃣ Your will power (and your ability to diet or resist food) diminishes when we're stressed or managing difficult feelings.

👉🏻 If you're using will power to hold yourself back from eating, you’re more likely to “crack” or “fall off the wagon” when difficult feelings come up.

The diet mentality is the real culprit here

2️⃣ You're struggling with diet-mentality around your emotional eating choices.

If you judge your emotional eating as wrong or bad, or if your emotional eating urges come in conflict with what you think you’re “supposed” to eat— you’re almost guaranteed to fall-off-the-wagon when you “slip” at the hands of an emotional urge.

In other words, emotional eating turns into a binge when you have diet-mentality around it — when you judge your emotional eating as “not okay” or deem yourself “off the wagon."

This is why giving *permission* of emotional eating behaviours is SO critical to long-term binge eating recovery.

Swipe ➡️ to find out if you’re at diet rock bottom

Being at diet rock bottom looks a little different for everyone. Most often, it feels like:

Failure.

Defeat.

Shame.

Your body isn’t doing what you want it to do (lose weight long-term)

You don’t trust yourself around food (eating has so much baggage)

You have so many areas of your life ‘together’… so why can’t food be the same?

Food, eating, health is not something you can discipline your way into managing forever. At a certain point, you hit a wall. That may be where you’re at now.

Even if you’ve been trying intuitive eating, you can still be at diet rock bottom if you’re not addressing all of the pieces of healing that you need to in order to truly move forward.

I see clients who have been working at intuitive eating for MONTHS and they can still be at diet rock bottom 😣

My goal as a dietitian and a coach is to help you address why you’re stuck + give you tangible steps to take so you can start to feel more at peace with food and more accepting of your body. All so you can open up your mental energy to live life without food and body anxiety so you can go on all the girls trips, try all the best restaurants in your area, say yes to new experiences and live in the moment again.

I currently have 3 client spots open for March! If you’re ready to finally be free from diet rock bottom, click the link in my bio to apply for coaching ✨

My Story & The Mission Behind The Food Freedom Life

Hi, I’m Brittany!

I was self-conscious about my weight from a young age, passively absorbing the world’s message that thinness should be my goal. Although I had tried a couple of diets throughout high school, it wasn’t until university when the shame of gaining the 'freshman (insert weight here)' finally pushed me down the slippery slope of dieting. I remember feeling excited at the idea of finally getting skinny. This is it! I’m doing it! I’m going to fit in and solve all my problems!

I’m sure you know that’s not what happened. Eventually, I slipped into disordered eating as I quickly developed the habit of trying a diet, breaking it, feeling ashamed, restricting food or trying a new diet, binge eating, rinse, repeat.

Even while I was in my second university degree to become a Dietitian, I was fully caught up in the diet world. Most of what I learned reinforced this dieting mindset, and I even started working in the fitness industry helping people lose weight. This motivated me to continue on my “healthy” past, but it also made me hyper-focused on my body and ashamed whenever I would binge like I had to hide it from the world.
