Conquering Emotional Eating with Andrea Montoya

TW: eating disorder, bulimia  No matter how things appear, everyone has internal battles. If your battle is with food, something that most of us are expected to eat three times every single day, that battle can be exhausting and all-consuming. This week, Trista is joined by nutritionist, certified food and body coach, and founder of Ditch the Scale Academy, Andrea Montoya. In this powerful episode, Andrea breaks down emotional eating, why we do it, and how we can try to stop it. She opens up about her lowest moment, offers signs to look out for, and discusses how to foster healthy relationships between your children and their food. There are a myriad of ways you can battle with food and in this insightful episode Andrea offers helpful guidance on how to improve the relationship that sustains us, insisting that neither your body nor food are the enemy (but how restriction is never a good idea!). Ultimately, she emphasizes the value of incorporating breath and presence in our lives, and driving our attention inward in order to heal and create a healthy future. You can connect with Andrea @thingsandreasays on Instagram, Facebook, and thingsandreasays.com. Mention you heard her through the podcast, and she will give you 25% off some of her courses!! To check out what your host is up to, you can follow her @tristasutter or @betteretc on Instagram. To connect with the Better, etc community, check out our Facebook group.
