On this week's episode of the Fat Murder
Podcast, co-coach, Steph Miramontes, joins me as
we discuss how to lose weight through Hunger Directed Eating.
As I tell my clients, these are not rules. Your diet brain is going
to turn them into rules since that’s what you’re used to, but this
is how you take care of yourself in a loving way.
They are “If love could speak to you about food” guidelines.
They are designed to teach you how to love yourself with food. As
dieters, you have learned how to use food as a way to force, shame,
and guilt yourself.
In the podcast, we discuss:
Think of it this way:
When was the last time you felt empowered and positive when your
boss or a parent ridiculed you?
When was the last time you felt compelled to do the dishes or the
laundry after your partner put you down for never doing them?
It doesn't work then and it doesn't work when you do it to
yourself, either.
The opposite is likely true.
When your boss, parent, or partner notices something positive about
you or something you did, it probably makes you want to do that
thing more.
Bullying doesn’t inspire change. Love does.
Give this week's episode and tell us what you learned about
yourself and how you can put it into action today.
