Emotional Eating

A Client Case Study: From Weekly Bingeing to Feeling Peaceful around Food

,

In this article, I share the experience of a client that went through my One-to-One Coaching program.

I’m sharing what her relationship with food was like before we started working together, some of the key components of my coaching that worked for her, and what her experience with food and her body is like now as a way for you to understand what’s possible on the other sides of your struggles with food and your body.

Please know that practicing Intuitive Eating and changing our relationship with our body, while we‘re embedded in cultural messages that tell us our bodies need to be different, is a constant and ever-changing process.

Are you trying to stop eating emotionally by replacing cookies with kale?

Here is a story about “Jo”. Jo has been struggling with emotional eating for a long, long time.

The negotiation began before Jo even opened her eyes. She lay in bed, remembering the night before. Oh, who was she kidding? It wasn’t just last night. The whole freakin’ day was a shit show.

It started with a few cookies at lunch and the rest was history. She ate and ate well into the evening. Constantly grazing on whatever she could find. And now, she had to fix this.

Jo told herself that today would be better. The sun was shining and she’d have a better day with food.
