🏊 A lot of athletes and active individuals struggle silently around food, fueling, and body image.

Meal support can help create:
• more structure and consistency around eating
• accountability in recovery
• reduced anxiety during meals
• support from professionals who understand athlete experiences
• a less isolating recovery process

🏋‍♀ For many athletes, underfueling, food anxiety, compulsive exercise, and eating disorder thoughts become normalized in sport and fitness culture.

You do not need to wait until things become severe to deserve support.

❤ Recovery support can be proactive, not just reactive.

🏊 One of the biggest fears athletes have is:

“If I recover, I’ll lose my edge.”

But long-term underfueling often hurts:
• recovery
• concentration
• consistency
• resilience
• performance longevity

Recovery is not the opposite of ambition.

Fueling adequately can support both your health and your athletic future.

🚴‍♀️ One of the biggest performance mistakes athletes make?

Not eating enough.

And it doesn’t always feel obvious.

But underfueling impacts:
→ performance
→ recovery
→ cravings
→ control around food

More control isn’t the answer.
More fuel is.

🥗 Signs you’re underfueling (even if you think you’re eating enough)

A lot of athletes assume they’re eating enough, but still feel tired, obsessed with food or out of control.

🔋 Underfueling can look like:
-thinking about food constantly
-low energy in training
-nighttime overeating
-trying to eat “clean” all day

You may think you lack discipline to follow your training plan, but your body is actually just underfueled.

Why can’t I stop eating as an athlete?

This is one of the most common things we hear, and it’s often not what you think.

It’s not lack of discipline.
It’s not “losing control.”

It’s often your body trying to catch up.

If you’re underfueling during the day, your body will push back later.

And it can feel intense.

Understanding this changes everything.

Share this with an athlete who needs it.

🏋 Why do I feel out of control around food, even as an athlete?

You train hard.
You’re disciplined.
You’re trying to “do everything right.”

So when eating starts to feel chaotic or out of control… it’s confusing.

This isn’t related to willpower.
For many athletes, this is a response to underfueling.

🔋 When your body doesn’t get enough energy:
→ hunger increases
→ cravings increase
→ urgency increases

So when you finally eat, it can feel intense and hard to stop.

Your body isn't failing you, it’s physiology.

If eating disorder recovery has ever felt like you had to leave parts of yourself at the door: your culture, your identity, or your lived experience, we hear you.

Many standard approaches to treatment don’t fully reflect the realities BIPOC individuals navigate, which can make healing feel isolating or incomplete 🌿

That’s why we created a BIPOC eating disorder support group: ✨ a space where your full experience is not only welcomed, but understood and explored with care

This is your reminder to sign up for Jamie’s group, beginning May 6th, before it’s too late ⏳💛
