S02 E40: CASE STUDY: How She Ditched the Shame of Bariatric Surgery and Decades of 'Failures'...And Finally Healed Her Relationship With Food
Stressless Eating
You see when I met Anita, she was almost at that point of giving up altogether. Anita was so bummed out that after attempting every diet under the sun and going through SO MUCH therapy to heal her struggles with food and her body -- she got to that point where she thought that NOTHING and NO ONE could help her -- that she was just a "lost cause" or destined to stay "this way" forever.

info_outlineNowadays where studies show that while less than 1% of American women suffer from anorexia and less than 1.5% of women suffer from bulimia...
Studies also show that 75% of American women suffer with Disordered Eating.
Let me say that again:
3/4 of the women in America suffer from Disordered Eating (and these studies only included Americans, but we also know it's a world wide epidemic).
Now here's the truth:
While pretty much everyone knows what an Eating Disorder is, most have never even heard of this thing called Disordered Eating (I know I sure hadn't!).
An even lesser known (and talked about) form of Disordered Eating is something called Orthorexia.
Orthorexia is when someone takes their health to an extreme, and they inhabit an excessive preoccupation or obsession with eating healthy food.
According to The National Eating Disorders Association Orthorexia entails:
Obsessive focus on food choices, food regarded primarily as source of health rather than pleasure; distress or disgust when in proximity to prohibited foods ; periodic shifts in dietary beliefs; moral judgment of others based on their dietary choices; body image distortion; persistent belief that dietary practices are health-promoting despite evidence of experiencing malnutrition...and the list goes on, and on, and on.
And because of all of the misinformation that's being thrown at us, Orthorexia is spreading like a wildfire -- ESPECIALLY in the female population.
The EFFECT of all of this?
An extremely DISORDERED relationship with food.
And if you're anything like myself and all my clients...
You've been exposed to the 'Dark Side' of the health industry for a very long time, and it's super important that you know what to look out for to make sure that YOUR health journey....stays....healthy!
Laura Lea Bryant is back on the podcast to help me unpack this super-important topic and share her personal experiences....and her experience as an influencer in the health and wellness world.
