Have you ever been confused by a saying? Well, for me this is it; "Everything in moderation". Today we explore the meaning of this saying and how it can impact the way that you relate to food and even exercise. 

In today's episode I want to talk about Diets and how they sometimes just don't work. This is an area I have always found challenging and one thing I have learnt over time is that the challenges I faced were really due to my reasons for pursuing the diets in the first place. Although I was interested in health and fitness, I was heavily influenced by my need to not feel shame and that was the driving force behind me doing various diets.

Every now and then we get to a low point in our lives when we feel helpless and powerless about change. This episode explores the contents of a letter that I wrote to FAT at a time when I felt defeated, victimised and overwhelmed by my experience of being overweight. It looks at the reasons why we sometimes feel shame even apart from the opinions or actions of other people. 

Words are seeds. The things people say matter. The things people say can cause wounds and leave scars that last a lifetime. In this episode I explore some experiences that seemingly didn't mean much but had a lasting impact on how I saw myself as they installed shame.
