And I’m completely at peace with every single one of these ✌️

Do you have any valid

Remember that judgement from others reflects their own relationship with food.

And if you need support to get to this place where you feel confident and at peace with your food choices and relationship with food
— just DM me the word SUPPORT.

I currently have a short waiting list, but my wonderful clinic dietitians Kirsty & Sarah have some availability.

Support systems are vital ❤️

For my last post of Eating Disorder Awareness Week 2026 I wanted to talk about supporting a loved with with an eating disorder, this also applies to those who struggle with food but don’t have a diagnosis.

There’s no perfect script of what to say in this scenario, the important thing is that they know you’re there for them.

Trying to be relaxed neutral about food and bodies is also very helpful to reduce the risk of being triggering.

When you support a loved one with their relationship with food you aren’t expected to take on the role of their therapist and dietitian, so try to make sure they also have the right professional support in place if needed.

And if they don’t have any support currently, the place to start is for them (or their guardian) to speak to their GP ASAP.

You can also set up a free 15-minute discovery call with one of the Eating Disorder Specialist Dietitians in my clinic — comment or DM the word SUPPORT for more information 🫶

and also have lots of great resources related to EDs and supporting loved ones with this.

Health professionals deserve just as much support and compassion as we give to our clients and patients ❤️

For Eating Disorder Awareness I’ve written a full article about Disordered Eating Among Health & Fitness Professionals which explores:
• Why these rates can be so high
• What to do if you’re a health or fitness professional struggling with this
• What the industry needs to change

And if you’re interested in support from Disordered Eating Specialist Dietitians who have unpacked and healed their own relationships with food, then don’t hesitate to set up a free discovery call with our team.

Eating disorders are as varied as the people they effect 🫶

And if you or a loved one is struggling with what you suspect might be an eating disorder, then don’t delay in seeking support. My DMs are open if you need to chat or don’t know where to start ❤️

Eating disorders can effect ANYONE

Many of us don’t really realise that when we think about eating disorders we’re automatically picturing a slim, white able-bodied young woman.

Yes young women are an at risk group, but eating disorders are as diverse as the people they impact and spreading this helps to reduce stigma for those who need support but don’t fit the stereotype ⚠️

And if you want compassionate support from an Eating Disorder Dietitian don’t hesitate to drop me a DM 🫶

Fewer ingredients does NOT equal more nutritious!

The more I look into this range, the more I despair 😫

Share if you agree this marketing hype needs to stop & follow for more evidence-based information that prioritises your relationship with food ✌️

I’ve seen this pattern play out too many times with people who reach out to me 😣

I know following a supermarket influencer won’t trigger an eating disorder for everyone, but it can really harm your relationship with food if you’re seeing a lot of fear-based food messages, and it can be a significant disordered eating trigger if you’re in a vulnerable place.

So I strongly suggest unfollowing triggering accounts, especially those who aren’t actual nutrition experts as the messages are often both unevidence-based & fear-mongering 😩

There’s so much you can do to prioritise your health & nutrition without fearing food in the process.

Don’t hesitate to reach out if this posts resonates ❤️

You’re not broken & you’re not alone if you feel addicted to sugar 🫶

And it also doesn’t have to stay this way.

I hope you find this post helpful if this is something you struggle with, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like support to end the sugar spirals & make peace with food ❤️
