Body trust means believing your body knows how to care for itself. 

It’s the opposite of external control—no more rigid food rules, fear-based choices, or guilt-ridden eating. Instead, you listen, respond, and respect your body’s cues.

And it’s something we work on a lot with our clients at MetroWest. If you’re looking to build your body trust, we’d love to support you.

The Hunger Fullness Scale is a subjective 0–10 scale that helps you rate your current level of physical hunger or fullness.

It’s often used as a mindfulness tool to increase awareness around your internal cues before, during, and after eating.

This is not a rigid rulebook, but rather a flexible self-check-in tool.

It helps you move away from eating according to the clock or rigid rules and toward eating that’s aligned with your body’s actual needs.

👉🏼 Save and come back to it if you need help checking in with yourself.

Anorexia often goes undetected in men yet they represent 25% of individuals who report it.

Understanding anorexia in men is critical to recovery. It requires unpacking not only its symptoms but also the unique challenges men face.

Say hello to Carolyn, one of our incredible dietitians!

She operates with a Health at Every Size (HAES) lens and often incorporates Intuitive Eating principles into her sessions.

Carolyn realizes that eating disorder care is complex, and therefore approaches conversations with clients compassionately and without judgment.

She seeks to set realistic nutrition goals with her clients and to help gently guide them toward an improved relationship with food.

Su***de prevention isn’t just about crisis response.

It’s about creating care that actually fits the person in front of you.

For those living with eating disorders, especially in marginalized bodies and identities, su***de risk is higher.

Racism, weight stigma, and discrimination add layers of pain that too often go unseen in traditional treatment spaces.

Culturally-affirming, whole-person care changes that. It says: your body, your story, your culture, your identity—all of it belongs here.

And in that belonging, healing becomes possible.

💛If you or someone you love is struggling, please know: you deserve support that sees all of who you are.

💛If you are in a crisis, please call or text 988, the Su***de and Crisis Lifeline.

💛If you’re looking for long-term support, head to our bio link to get in touch.

We don’t judge or shame our clients for wondering about GLP-1s, asking questions, or deciding if it’s the right choice for them.

For this conversation, and all conversations, we know this requires nuance, compassion, and deeper work to understand the what, why, and how for each client and their unique needs.

Fear foods aren’t about the food—they’re about the fear. And reintroducing them isn’t about “just getting over it.” It’s about building safety, trust, and capacity.

🧠 Therapy helps you understand the stories and emotions behind the fear—validating your experience while gently helping you shift the narrative.

🥣 Nutrition support gives you tools to reintroduce foods at your own pace, reduce guilt, and create more freedom in your eating.

You don’t have to rush. You don’t have to love it right away. But it IS possible to eat without fear.
