“I’ve been eating so badly. I need to do something about this.”

If you’ve ever had that thought, I want you to know something important.

Your brain may hear that as a warning.
A signal that restriction is coming.

And when the brain senses restriction — even just the threat of it — it often increases the desire for food.

Not because you lack discipline.
Not because you’re greedy.
Not because you’re broken.

But because your brain is wired to protect you!

During Eating Disorder Awareness Week, this feels important to say:

The binge–restrict cycle isn’t a failure of willpower.
It’s a biological response to perceived scarcity.

The more we threaten to take food away,
the louder the drive for it becomes.

Restriction fuels the cycle.
Compassion and consistency begin to calm it.

If you’ve been stuck in this pattern, you’re not weak.
Your body is trying to keep you safe.

And there is another way 🤍

If this resonates, please know you’re not alone.

Healing isn’t loud.

It doesn’t look like perfect body confidence or never thinking about food again

Sometimes it looks like:

🤍pausing instead of panicking

🤍eating the cookie and not spiraling

🤍choosing breakfast even when you’re “not hungry”

If you see yourself in any of these - you ARE making progress ❤️

On average, women spend 6-10 YEARS of their lives dieting 💔
That’s years of restriction, too rules, and waiting to feel “ready”

This weekend was my hen party 🤍
And I am NOT dieting for my wedding

For so long, weddings have been framed as a deadline for “shrinking”

But here’s what the research shows:
Chronic dieting is associated with increased food preoccupation, body dissatisfaction, and weight cycling - not long term wellbeing!

I’ve already given years of my life to dieting

I don’t want to give it my engagement.
I don’t want to give it these last 26 days.
And I definitely don’t want to give it moments like this!

This video?
This is wha food freedom gives you 🤍

Presence.
Connection.
Joy that isn’t interrupted by thoughts about your body.

You deserve to experience your milestones FULLY - not through the lens of “how do I look?”

If you’re feeling wedding (or event) pressure to diet, this is your permission to OPT OUT 🤍

At first glance, this looks like a “healthy” snack 🍓

Strawberries on the front.
“Low calorie.”
Light, bright packaging.

But when we flip it over and actually look…

The calories per pack.
The ingredient list.
The traffic light system.

It tells a slightly different story.

This isn’t about saying this yoghurt bar is “bad.”

It’s about recognising how powerful marketing is.
Food packaging is designed to sell.

Strawberries on the front don’t automatically mean high fruit content.
“Low calorie” doesn’t automatically mean nourishing.

Health isn’t a font choice or a pastel colour scheme.

It’s about understanding what you’re buying — not being swayed by the front of the box.

You deserve to feel confident reading labels.
Not confused.
Not manipulated.

Next time you’re shopping, take 10 extra seconds to turn the pack around 👀

Marketing is loud.
Information is quiet.
Learn to read the quiet part 🤍

This is what I ate this week 🍽️

Breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks.
Some quick oven meals 🧊➡️🔥
Some more nutrient-dense plates 🥗
Some chocolate 🍫
Some donuts 🍩
Some fruit 🍊🍌

Some repeats.

Nothing fancy.

Nothing perfectly curated.

Nothing “clean.”

And that’s the point 🤍

Nutrition doesn’t have to be:
– complicated
– all fresh, organic ingredients
– different every single day
– aesthetic
– perfectly balanced at every meal

It can look like freezer food on a busy night.
It can look like the same breakfast three times because it’s easy.
It can look like a donut alongside your usual lunch.
It can look like oranges and bananas because that’s what was in the bowl.

Health isn’t built on one meal.
It’s shaped over time 🫶

Variety across the week matters more than perfection on a plate.

You don’t need to overhaul your life to eat well.
You just need meals that work for you 🤍

If this feels like permission to relax a little around food, save this for later ✨

And tell me in the comments — what’s your most repeated meal at the moment? 👇

13/02/2026

“If these biscuits said 20g of protein… would they suddenly be healthy?”

It’s wild how quickly our perception of a food can change when we see the word protein on the label.

Don’t get me wrong — protein is important.
It supports muscle repair, keeps us fuller for longer, and plays a big role in overall health.

But adding protein to something doesn’t automatically turn it into a “health food.”

A food isn’t defined by one nutrient.
Health isn’t defined by one macro.

When we zoom in on just protein, we miss the bigger picture:
✨ fibre
✨ fats
✨ carbohydrates
✨ micronutrients
✨ satisfaction
✨ enjoyment

A well-rounded way of eating isn’t about chasing the highest protein number on the shelf.

It’s about variety.

Balance.

And asking, “What does this meal give me?” — not just “How much protein is in it?”

You don’t need to protein-fy everything to be healthy.

Food is more than a marketing claim 🤍

10/02/2026

For a long time, I looked at meals as just… calories

Too much = bad
Too little = “good”

And food became something to control instead of something to support me

This breakfast isn’t just a number!

Each ingredient has a job:
✨ to give me energy
✨ to support my digestion
✨ to keep me satisfied
✨ to help my body function, not fight it
✨ and yes — to be enjoyed

When you slow down and break a meal into what it actually gives you, food stops being scary!

Food isn’t the reason people struggle with their bodies.
Diet culture is.

When you start looking at meals for what they give you — not what they “cost” you — everything changes!

Food is fuel, nourishment, enjoyment and care.
Not punishment. ❤️

January wasn’t about doing more.

It was about listening more 🤍

I ran a free January challenge with an incredible group of women, and these are some of the reflections that came through at the end of the month.

✨ Setting intentions instead of reacting

✨ Holding themselves accountable with kindness

✨ Letting go of forcing busy, forcing exercise, forcing food rules

✨ Choosing rest, calm, and self-trust

✨ Beginning to soften the “good vs bad food” mindset

This is the work that doesn’t always look flashy on Instagram — but it’s the work that actually changes your relationship with food and yourself.

I’m so proud of every woman who showed up for herself this January 🥰

And if this resonates with you, let it be your reminder:

You don’t need to force your way into freedom. You can gently choose it 🤍

Thank you for trusting me with this space 🫶

5 years ago I posted this photo with the caption “finally making progress”

That’s what I thought I was doing.
In my eyes, I was getting skinnier, losing weight, showing more abs.
I still believed I had further to go in my journey.

And I was at my lightest weight… so that had to be my best self right?

Truth is - body dysmorphia was at its worst

I was my unhealthiest

My hair was frail, skin was dull, energy was at an all time low, and my relationship with food… well that was at rock bottom

So when I say to you that I’ve been there, I know how you’re feeling, and I know how hard it is…. I REALLY do

Healing a relationship with food, and a relationship with yourself is HARD, and it takes so much time and patience.

But the thing that helps most?

Education.

Not quick fixes or another new diet… but learning about food, what it’s doing, why we need it, how we utilise it and learning to listen to your bodies messaging.

That’s the ONLY way to heal properly ❤️

Hi, I’m Bekka.

I do this work because I’ve watched so many people learn to distrust their bodies — to override hunger, ignore fullness, and follow rules that promise control but cost them peace.

I’m trained to support food freedom, and I come to this work as a scientist. I believe in listening to the body’s biology — in respecting what it asks for, rather than chasing trends that ask us to silence it in the name of weight loss.

Our bodies are not problems to be solved. They are systems trying, always, to keep us alive.

I’m also a mum to a busy two-year-old, balancing two jobs, a border collie who needs long walks, and a wedding being planned in the quiet spaces between everyday life. Some days I hold space for others. Some days I’m just holding it together.

This space exists because food freedom should not be reserved for people with time, money, or access to private support. Understanding your body is not a luxury — it’s a right.

You deserve to know how your body works. You deserve care that honours it.

I’m really glad you’re here 🤍

It’s time for a weekly recap, and oh my what a week 😂

This week has involved more injuries, mental breakdowns, birthdays and lots of mummy lily time - it was a rollercoaster for sure!

We managed 3 runs (one being the longest one since my ankle injury 😎)
3 strength workouts - super happy with this as I actually pushed myself to do 2 home workouts 🏋️‍♀️
Some yummy and nutritious foods - after having a breakdown from feeling pressure the be “the perfect bride” we finally feel in a better place and WAY more in control again ❤️
Then there’s been some new skill acquired - using a pyrography pen to practise for some wedding DIY ✒️
And finally celebrating dads birthday with marshmallow candle and a meal out 😂

Not every week is going to be perfect, and honestly this week could have been awful - but I have learnt so much this week and know that because of it, next week is going to be so much stronger

Food isn’t supposed to feel this hard!

If you’ve been stuck in the binge–restrict cycle, constantly thinking about food, or feeling out of control around eating… it’s not because you’re broken ❌

Most of us were taught to use food as a weight-loss tool instead of what it really is — nourishment, energy, and information for your body. And when you fight your biology, it fights back!

That’s what my coaching is all about: learning how your body actually works so you can stop fighting food and start feeling calm around it 🥰

Welcome to Food Freedom with Bekka — where we use science, not shame, to rebuild trust with your body. 💛
