When I meet with a new client who is frustrated because they frequently eat when they're not hungry, I can almost guarantee that one thing is missing from their life. Any guesses? Whether you call it self-care or a hobby, doing something just for yourself is vitally important. All too often, we're doing things for others but not filling up our own cups. I encourage you to experiment with committing to something just for yourself - and let me know what you find!

I posed this very question to my email list last week, and I loved getting so many personal replies! Apparently, this question really resonated with many women.

January is hard. There is so much noise.
If it’s all getting to be too much, I’m giving you permission to check out of the barrage of diet and wellness promotions:
-Pause notifications from friends who are “all-in” on their January goals.
--Unfollow those on social media who are making you distrust your body.
Mute TV commercials
-Create a safe zone of people who are aligned with your goals!
-Sign up for my mail list for weekly guidance. You don’t have to feel so alone!

Dieting during menopause is like trying to put out a fire with gasoline. 🛑
Most of the advice out there tells us to "eat less and move more," just as our hormones are shifting our metabolism and stress levels. It’s exhausting, and it rarely works long-term. But you probably know that already!
I just wrote a new post about navigating weight changes from a different lens. I examine:
-The biological "why" behind your body changes.
-Practical ways to support your mental and physical health.
-The power of body acceptance in a phase of life that demands so much of us.

Too many can relate to this scenario: You’re at your annual physical.
You’ve had your height, weight, and blood pressure checked. You’re now waiting in the exam room for your doctor to enter so that you can share the progress that you’re really excited about.

You’re feeling proud.

Suddenly your doctor walks in, greets you, and cuts right to the chase.

“Mary, your BMI is above the normal range and your LDL cholesterol is a little high. Otherwise, your labs are normal. You should try to lose weight by cutting calories and exercising every day. Come back in 3-6 months and we’ll see if things have improved.”

Luckily, you can take some steps to improve your next doctor's appointment and this article can help you do just that!

Are you scared to be around holiday candy?🍫 Afraid that the first bite will lead to a binge? And that you'll spend the next day in a daze? ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​There's something I want you to know: You can enjoy candy and eat it in an amount that makes you feel good. Don't believe me? I know what I'm saying can feel far-fetched, but I witness it every day in my work with women just like you. Trust me: you might feel like you are the only woman on earth who can't be trusted around sugar. You're not!
So, what's the key?

😊Give yourself unconditional permission to eat the candy. The power that this candy has over you is related to the fact that it has been forbidden for so much of your life. Is eating it tied to ‘being good’ at your next meal, extra time on the treadmill, or do you really ‘allow’ it at all outside of a binge?
🍽️Make sure you continue to eat regular meals on holidays. 'Saving up' calories for treats by skipping meals is a sure path to bingeing and feeling crappy afterwards.
🍫Sit down and enjoy the candy you eat. Eating is meant to be a pleasurable experience, but it’s hard to truly enjoy a treat when you sneak a candy bar from your child’s treat bag and quickly pop it in your mouth, hoping no one sees you! 👀 You'll enjoy it so much more when you stop acting like you're doing something shameful. I promise!
Still stuck in the cycle of deprivation and binge eating? You can get to a place where food doesn't hold power over you. Schedule your free call with me to see if you're a good fit for my nutrition coaching program. Call link in bio.

Fantastic article! Eating disorders exist across the weight spectrum and all bodies are worthy of care and healing.

New research shows that our assumptions about eating disorders are often wrong — and that many larger-bodied people are starving themselves.
