158. Body Image, Diet Culture, + Intuitive Eating with Registered Dietitian Elise Liu, MPH, RD

I'm beyond thrilled to welcome Elisa Liu onto the podcast today to talk about body image, diet culture, and ways to begin to trust our own hunger again.  For most of us, indulging in what our bodies may be asking for often comes with a hefty dose of guilt. Really intense restriction can mean that your overall control is absolutely shot. Diet culture is everywhere and it tells us that no matter what we do, it's never enough. It's no wonder that we feel the need to deny ourselves at every opportunity; we're taught to equate self-discipline with goodness and eating anything less than the perfect diet as bad or failure. In this episode of The Self Love Fix Podcast we'll talk more with Elisa about: The effects restriction can have on our relationship with food How self-control can seem out of reach How to heal and overcome seeing foods as "good" and "bad" Your worth is who you are and how you connect to yourself and others- it's how you show up in your life. You are so much bigger and brighter than any number on a scale, or a size stitched in some pants. One day you'll believe that.
