The Midlife Feast

#147 - How to Stop the Cycle of “Starting Over” Every Monday


Listen Later

Do you find yourself vowing to “start fresh” every Monday, only to feel like you’ve fallen off the wagon by the time the weekend (or lunch) rolls around? The Monday reset cycle keeps so many of us trapped in an exhausting loop of restriction, indulgence, and shame—making food feel like a constant battle.

But what if Monday was just another day? In this episode, we explore why this cycle gets stuck on repeat and how to break free. Diet culture has convinced us that we need rules and resets, but the real path to food freedom comes from food neutrality, flexibility, and satisfaction—not perfection.

I’ll share practical ways to rebuild trust with your body, let go of all-or-nothing thinking, and stop feeling like you have to “make up” for anything you ate. If you’re ready to step off the dieting rollercoaster and into a more peaceful relationship with food, join me!
