Hello one and all,
I've worked in the NHS since 2008 and have seen patients both too fat and too thin to physically have the strength to stand up. In the world we live in I find this really distressing especially in the light of the fact that these people can rarely get the help they so desperately need, are stigmatised because of their appearance or side lined because they have a mental illness. Alongside this we’re bombarded by the media with a lot of myths and mixed messages about food, body image and exercise which can make it really confusing if you're trying to sort through ideas. Is there any wonder so many of us end up with f**ked up relationships with food and our bodies? Myself being a prime example, of ALWAYS turning to food to deal with negative emotions, I have finally come out of the other side, a lot wiser and with more understanding that will power has nothing to do with long term weight - not in my world anyway. I'm happy to demolish a packet of biscuits if the mood takes me (a conscious choice unrelated to my emotions and I bloody enjoy them not ram them in guiltily) and still feel comfortable in my skinny jeans. I believe that the best way to promote wellbeing is to remove the focus from the diet trap, which is just a miserable depressing cycle. I think everyone can be as healthy as they can be right now in the body they’ve got. We are who we are right now, and the only things we have the power to change are our present state of mind and choices moving forward. I also believe no health professional who tells you what you SHOULD weigh (some caveats regarding surgery etc), SHOULD be asked to provide robust scientific evidence of what use, medically, in the long term that would mean for your health. ONLY YOU know your body best and you know what feels comfortable and healthy to you. F**k society if it disagrees with you. In light of this I'd like to use my experience to address women and body image in an alternative way. My aim is for all women to feel good about themselves, their appearances and their food choices. And by the way there will be NO talk of 'good and bad foods', just foods we feel hungry for, nourished by and enjoy eating in a mindful way. FULL GUARANTEE OF YOUR MONEY BACK if you don't think you've spent it wisely.....
But I can't really see how learning the skills to eat cake often, and not have a pre night out frenzy 'cos... 'NOTHING FITS' ....could ever be a bad thing! If you don't experience these problems (high five) come along anyway if you have any aspects of your relationship with food you'd like to change or discuss. I am a practising health professional and as such would lose my job and be struck off if I breached confidentiality so rest assured you can tell me ALL your secrets!!!!! Private message me on here, email me at victoriapigg@live.co.uk or call me on 07487829995 and I can answer any questions you might have or get your spot signed straight up and reserved. Peace out beautiful people # # # # # #
