Why You Still Struggle With Food After Years of Dieting

After years of dieting, you may know all the rules about what to eat and when to eat. But knowing the rules doesn’t necessarily mean you feel at peace with food. I know what it’s like to spend years focused on weight loss and eventually realize there was something more I needed to understand.

In this episode, I explore how approaching food with a beginner’s mind can help you see your eating patterns differently. We’ll look at physical hunger, emotional hunger, and the four types of eating: fuel, joy, fog, and storm. I’ll also share why getting curious about your habits, rather than assuming you’ve already tried everything, can open the door to a different relationship with food.

If you’re ready to look beyond another set of diet rules and understand what’s happening when you eat, join me for this episode of ThINNER Peace in Menopause & Beyond. Enjoy the show!
