Does this blog post hit close to home?

Recently I shared something to my personal page in hope of help from at least one person. Alot of women resonated and gave helpful advice and stories with their own personal relationship with food.

I’ve written a blog post based on the feedback and experiences others so generously shared. If any of this feels familiar, I hope it helps you feel a little less alone.

Please reach out if you need help. We understand.

And please share this post. It’s a common struggle, and your share might be the encouragement someone else needs to seek support.

Struggling with food obsession or body image? Read my personal story and find some practical tips like mindful eating and therapy for recovery.

MENTAL HEALTH TIP

Do you wake up tired?

It could be emotional exhaustion, not just physical.

✔ Take 10 minutes screen-free before bed

✔ Try journaling or contemplating before sleep

✔ Consider therapy if it persists
