When we don’t trust our bodies, we often feel we need diets, guidelines, schedules, scales, MyFitnessPal, doctors, coaches, and many other external sources to help us determine how we should eat and move…and then monitor our progress because we’re scared that if we trust our bodies and don’t monitor them, x, y, z might happen.

With lack of body trust typically comes increased weight and food worry + preoccupation. We might also notice more weight monitoring: body checking, weighing, trying on clothes to make sure they fit, etc.

Many of us lose our body trust due to diet culture messages suggesting that if you aren’t counting, controlling, or weighing…your body will gain weight, or it won’t be healthy, or both…

However, clinical studies show that rigid food controls are often linked with disordered eating, eating disorders, poor self-esteem and body image, and increased food/body worry or anxiety.

Rebuilding body trust can be daunting, but it is 100% possible. If you have struggled with body trust and have seen negative side effects in the areas mentioned above, reach out to Memphis Nutrition Group to set up a session with one of our dietitians!

It is hard to grow up with a positive food relationship...and even harder to grow up with positive body image.

We pick up the thoughts, beliefs, and negative outlooks from our families, friends, doctors, health teachers, strangers, coaches, social media….and those daggum magazines at the check-out line.

Do you want to know the ultimate secret to food and body freedom?!?!?!

It’s realizing that you have the power to write your own food and body story. It doesn’t have to be the one handed down to you, the one others tell you it has to be…you get to choose what you believe and how you want to experience and engage with food and your body.

Let’s just take a moment and brainstorm...

🖊 If you could write a letter to your younger self about food and body image, what would you want the younger you to know?
🖊 If you could change anything about the way you think about or feel about food or your body, what would you change?
🖊 If you woke up tomorrow with a feeling of food and body freedom, what would you do and why?!

Rewriting our food and body narratives is not easy, but it is totally worth it! If you need help with writing yours, reach out to Memphis Nutrition Group. We'd love to give you a hand!

A year or so ago, I (MLA) taught a nutrition group on the difference between body function and body image…
We laughed about the fact that I drove my mom’s Windstar minivan for 6 months before I got my own car at 16. We laughed about the lousy steering wheels in our used cars. We talked about what dream car we could have…
And then we sat in uncomfortable silence when we realized that dreaming of a dream body isn’t so different from dreaming of a dream car, except we tend to get on with life and our dreams and hopes in whatever car we drive, but we don’t always do the same in the body we’ve got.
Of course, a car isn’t nearly as personal as a body, but it’s an important reminder that dreaming about an ideal body, especially when it takes up significant mental and emotional space in our life can have a very real, painful, and widespread impact on our lives.
Regardless of our sizes, our bodies allow us to be capable of feeling safe, loved, connected, and known, but we might not realize that when we’ve attached those qualities to only certain body sizes or shapes, or if we’ve experienced weight stigma.
Regardless of the flaws we see in our bodies, they are capable of having so much freedom and fun when we give our bodies, and ourselves, permission to finally do so!
If experiencing body freedom is something you haven’t experienced lately, working with a weight-inclusive RD at Memphis Nutrition Group is a great place to share your worries, concerns, dreams, and hopes in a safe space. Reach out to begin working with us!

In a culture that runs on the treadmill (while somehow simultaneously working, self-caring, supplementing, vacationing, smoothie-ing, and attempting to make homemade bread), it’s hard not to aim for "perfection," am I right?
Wellness culture thrives on ideas like perfect eating, perfect resting, perfect self-caring, moving, and health. Even if you’ve learned to eat intuitively, to listen to your body, the constant pressure to DO MORE, BE MORE, ACHIEVE MORE can really nag at you and me.
Part of experiencing food and body freedom is experiencing food and body flexibility, that means…a little less perfection and a lot more self-compassion.
When we pursue perfection, we tend to have a harder time with:

♥️ Intuitive Eating
♥️ Body image and self-talk
♥️ Having fun and letting go
♥️ Enjoying movement for fun
♥️ Getting bogged down in the quantitative (numbers, grams, sizes) aspects of life vs. the qualitative (joy, fun, authenticity, connection) aspects of life.

If the ghost of perfection seems to follow you around, now might be the perfect time to read “Present Over Perfect” by Shauna Niequist + work with an MNG dietitian so you can experience the fun, freedom, and flexibility of food!

There’s often a tug-of-war between the desire to lose weight and our food freedom. When we give up our freedom around food, we may achieve weight loss through scarcity and restriction, but it often comes at the cost of losing fun food memories with loved ones, socializing and enjoying eating out, being free to make and eat cookies with our children, and loss of mental freedom and peace of mind around meals.

With every inch towards portion control, rigid caloric limits, or “healthier” alternatives for the foods we really want, we might move toward weight changes, but simultaneously carry the burden of the requirements necessary for those changes.

How can you begin to declare food and body independence to regain more freedom?!
❤️Honor hunger and fullness cues.
🤍Consider what you want vs what you “should” want.
💙Explore the foods you genuinely enjoy that make you feel good.
❤️Ask your body what it needs to feel energized and vibrant.
🤍Stop having a glass of water when you really want a snack.
💙Consider the ways your body has been suppressed and restricted in the name of a size, number, or challenge with body image.
❤️Work with an RD at Memphis Nutrition Group!!

This July 4th, we encourage you to advocate for your body and consider what food freedoms and body freedoms you wish you had more of this year!
