*TRIGGER WARNING: EATING DISORDERS AND WEIGHT STIGMA DISCUSSION*

Are you fed up of diets and intentional weight loss controlling your life, making you feel unworthy and less than?

A few years ago I felt the same, and the catalyst for change was listening to a podcast episode with an anti-diet Dietitian just like this. And it has honestly changed my entire life.

In this episode the lovely Aoife McMahon, a Specialist Food+Body Healing Dietitian, shares her knowledge, expertise and lived experience of why diets don’t work, but also what does.

We cover:

* Why diets don’t work and the research behind this

* How our bodies react to food and weight restriction

* Why we feel out of control around food

* Why diet culture thrives on making you feel like you’re the problem (BTW, you’re not)

* Explaining intuitive eating and the research behind this model

* How you can begin to start healing your relationship with food

* Exploring weight stigma

* And, you guessed it…more!
