DID YOU KNOW at least 30 million people of all age

DID YOU KNOW at least 30 million people of all ages + genders suffer from an eating disorder in the U.S.

In my teen years, I struggled a great deal with disordered eating. I worked out as much as I possibly could- sometimes 3+ times a day. I skipped 80% of meals throughout the week, but would emotionally binge at high stress times. It got to a point that I was hiding how much I WASN’T eating and would survive off of an apple and a Diet Coke for days. The thought of consuming food made me anxious, missing a workout made me angry and frustrated, and I was obsessive-compulsive about tracking any calories I took in, weighing myself, and measuring my waist. I literally berated myself and felt such intense guilt when I ate, it made me sick to my stomach.

My friends started to notice and my boyfriend at the time was scared about how skeletal my face and body began to look. Me? I was proud of my restraint, while I still had body dysmorphia about my reflection, I beamed at the 00 size pants I was able to buy. I wasn’t ready to admit I had a problem that wasn’t healthy. It took me moving away to college, making new and supportive friends that didn’t judge me, but instead would gently suggest I eat more at the dining hall, and then getting group counseling. In counseling I was able to understand what drove me to develop disordered eating behaviors, how I could ease my way out of the habits I had developed, and to work to try and reverse the damage I had done to my body and metabolism.

Here I am today, working to help people live a healthy lifestyle without food deprivation or excessive workouts- everything comes from a place of balance and with your overall health in mind; not just your size or a number on the scale. Mild or extreme, any disordered eating is bad for you body and overall health and is part of the reason I became a nutritionist.

While therapy is an essential aspect to recovery, so is nutrition support. I can be there for you on the food side as someone whose been there.

IT REALLY IS THIS SIMPLE TO STAY MOTIVATED! It st

IT REALLY IS THIS SIMPLE TO STAY MOTIVATED!

It starts with writing out your “whys”- setting your intentions and motivations behind living healthier and making sure they’re realistic + continuously checking back in with them.

Write it all out. Food, feelings, fitness, sleep, water intake, wins and losses for the day, wellness behaviors, things you notice you like and do not like....tracking everything and not just portions, will be enlightening.

Starting to cook more? Trying a new workout? Find joy and happiness in your new habits!!!

Be patient with yourself- this is a marathon for life-long change, not a sprint to the bikini aisle. Patience also means being forgiving of your failures along the way and pushing yourself to get back on track.

5 FOODS THAT FIGHT BLOAT When grocery shopping th

5 FOODS THAT FIGHT BLOAT

When grocery shopping this weekend for #mealprep - consider these anti-bloat foods from the produce section that are filled with potassium, acids, digestive enzymes, anti-inflammatory plant compounds, + water.

Bananas + Avocados are potassium-rich foods, which helps flush out sodium and water

Lemons offer up hydration plus acids similar to your natural stomach acid that helps your GI tract move things along faster

Ginger contains a digestive enzyme called zingibain, which helps the body break down protein and has a relaxing affect that promotes better digestion combatting blast.

Fennel has 3 compounds: anethole, fenchone, and estragole. These compounds have antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory properties that relax intestinal muscle and allow trapped gas to escape.

PRIORITIES over DISTRACTIONS PROBLEM: There is so

PRIORITIES over DISTRACTIONS

PROBLEM: There is so much, too much, to distract us out there. The trends right now to engage in so many social media platforms (which I am all about in small doses) are taking over so much of our productive time. I know, it’s fun and provides you with a smile, some sense of community, and gives you a creative outlet, but it is also too easy a way to let other things slide.

SOLUTION: I remember back in the day when my parents set limits on tv time and now how I do that with my daughter with her iPad. Set your own daily screen time limits. You can talk yourself through times of day you’re allowed to take a break from life and peruse social or you can set a 5-minute timer on your phone for your perusal duration. Anything you can do to shorten your time away from your priorities.
