Why Not?

Listen Later

Have you always struggled with weight loss have you considered how your relationship with food could be affecting that?

Today I talk to Claire Feldman, Claire is a psychotherapist who works with people who are looking to break the cycle of disordered eating and mend their relationship with food.

We talk about her own story and how she came to work in this area.

Hoe you can't look for weight loss and fix your disordered eating at the same time so you have to be willing to let that go in order to heal

How people often romanticise a certain weight and want to be that weight again but often don't remember how they got there

Building structure through balanced meals without prescribing a meal plan

How eating disorders can take up so much of someone's life and having empathy and compassion for themselves can help them move away from these behaviours

People often think that it's their lack of control over food and its often not that simple

That when it comes to before and after transformation shots but you never see a 6 month after shot

There's been a rise in eating disorders since the pandemic, specifically in college students

How over-exercise can be a sign of disordered eating 

That our childhood experiences can affect how we see exercise but finding a way of moving your body that you enjoy is so important

If you are thinking that you may have some disordered eating habits get curious about where it is coming from and consider do you need to remove those influences from your life

Don't be afraid to reach out for help if this is something that you are struggling with disordered eating, there is a lot of shame associated with it but there is no shame in having an eating disorder.
