As a health & fitness coach, I've worked with a variety of clients over the last several years, and I've learned that every single woman I work with has a desire to change her body in some way! Typically, my ladies are undereating when we first start working together. However..that’s not the case with everyone. Whether you’re undereating or overeating, it often comes down to your lack of awareness and mentality around WHY you’re eating the way you are.

Many people think overeating means that you’re just eating a ton of food, all the time, but that’s not necessarily true. If overeating becomes a consistent habit for you, it can lead to disordered eating, which unfortunately, changes your relationship with food. Undereating or overeating isn’t something you set out to intentionally do - it’s usually because you’ve experienced a major life change or stressful situation, and you turn to food to cope with it. Your mindset and emotions REALLY come into play here, and if you don’t choose to get trusted support from someone who can actually help you, you will stay stuck in this cycle.

While your workouts, macros, water intake, sleep, etc. are important, your mindset and self-esteem is what truly matters. You’ve got to take ownership of your situation, put a plan in place you’re excited to commit to, and work with someone who has your best interest at heart. Ultimately, I hope this episode is a valuable reminder for ALL OF US to be less judgmental and more empathetic towards others and their bodies, too!
