I always thought there was ‘someone’ up there who hated me.

That this ‘someone' wanted me to suffer, that they were doing whatever they could to give me the shittest life they believed I deserved. 

Who was this “someone”?

Why the hell were they doing this to me?

I deserved to be happy, didn’t I?

I deserved to feel good about myself?

Didn’t I?

But, I knew I didn’t. I knew I didn’t deserve anything but the horrible things which kept on occurring. 

I wasn’t worth it.

For as long as I can remember my life revolved around food. And not in the fun, enjoyable way.

I was OBSESSED. I would think about the next meal before I had even finished the meal I was eating. Though, it wasn’t necessarily a meal. It was breakfast as soon as I woke up, snack a few hours later, 11 am lunch because I was STARVING, early afternoon snack, late afternoon snack, dinner time (still starving) then dessert. 

All the while wondering what I was going to eat next. And hardly enjoying any of the food I was actually eating.

If a food thought popped into my head about something yummy to eat I couldn’t get rid of it until I ate it. Whether I wanted to or not. Whether I was actually hungry or not. 

But, then again, I never truly felt hungry. I only thought I did. I told myself I was hungry because I hadn’t eaten for 3 hours so my body must be feeling deprived. I had better go and get some more food to shove in my face. 

This food-obsessed cycle went over for about 3 decades. Give or take a few years. I am now 45 and the cycle has ended. FINALLY. I finally feel free.

If you’re tired of feeling unhappy about your weight then this podcast is for you!

It’s going to be powerful and compelling… I have a lot to say.

I'm going to start at the beginning… My beginning.

From the age of 13, I started to put on weight. My home life was horrible and I began to use food as a way of stuffing my feelings down inside my body as far as they could go. I believed I had no one to talk to and I wasn’t able to go to either of my parents for the love and support I needed.

So food became my comfort and my friend. (Though, food was always that friend who left you feeling even more shitty about yourself than what you did in the first place).

The weight crept on, I began to hate who I was and life sucked even more. So I ate. And, the weight crept on, I hated myself more and more each day and my life continued to completely suck!

High school was an absolute nightmare and I felt ostracised for being overweight. I was teased, I was bullied and there was no one to talk to about how I was feeling. I felt so lonely. So, I ate.

In this episode, I want to keep it short and sweet because I would love to give you 3 beautiful ways you can begin raising love within yourself right now. 

In the last 15 episodes of the Raising Love podcast, I have talked a lot about you and your body. I have shared with you how I absolutely HATED myself and my body for most of my life. 

And, that as women it is normal to be self-deprecating about ourselves and our bodies. And, if for some reason a woman should actually LOVE her body then there must be something wrong with her so we get our guard up and do whatever we can to make sure she comes back down to the unloving place we live in. 

The place where she really belongs. Down in the dumps with the rest of us because it makes us feel safe and secure having others feeling shit about themselves just like we do.

But what if we all ended up in a beautiful place? A place that was full of love and affection for who we are and our bodies. A place where we built each other up as women and encouraged one another to feel good about every inch of ourselves. 

Wouldn’t that be a wonderful place to live?

Today's topic can be quite a contentious topic for a lot of women. It is something most of us have done at one time or another and it is something that many experts still advocate as being the only way to lose weight.

And, that is counting calories. 

Who cringes at just hearing that?

I do. I cringe because it brings up all sorts of bad feelings. Feelings of desperation, deprivation and hunger.

And for someone like me who couldn’t go more than an hour without eating, this was not ideal. 

Because counting calories definitely means eating less. Wayyyyy less. There was no way I could ever do that.

I tried though. But not for long. It was too painful in so many different ways. 

Calorie counting to me meant starving myself, eating foods I didn’t really enjoy and feeling like a failure because I couldn’t stick to it. 

That’s one end of the pendulum. The other end is worse. Much worse. This end of the pendulum means obsession, total restriction, all-consuming deprivation and a desperation to be thin at all costs.

How are you on this beautiful day?

How was your morning? Did you feel like there was not enough time again? Did you spend most of your morning stressing and getting wound up at all the things that needed doing but you just couldn’t get them all done? 

And, this stressed out, anxious and worried feeling stayed with you for the whole day causing even more stress and anxiety, and the feeling that there just isn’t enough time and you can’t get everything done, there’s too much to do; so this vicious cycle of stress and worry, and not enough time and too much to do lays heavy within you and you don’t know how to get out of it or what to do to make it go away.

This used to be me not all that long ago really. 

I would try to fit in all that I wanted and needed to do before my daughter woke up and then spend the rest of the morning stressing about all the things I still had to do to get her to school and I would freak out, get stressed and then yell and go nuts because things weren’t happening quick enough or I was running out of time. 

I knew I was being ridiculous and that I was behaving in a way that only amped up my anxiety and stress levels. I was stuck in that cycle.

How deeply do you believe that exercise is for burning calories and losing weight?

Only.

Is this all there is to working out and moving your body?

What if I told you that what we have been taught about exercise is complete shit.

That the belief we have about calories in and calories out is so wrong it’s causing us to exercise in a way that is harmful to our health, to our minds and to our bodies?
