Episode 269: What does body acceptance REALLY mean?

from The Diet Diaries · host Jordana Edelstein

Today’s episode is conversation about body image, food, and why so many of us feel stuck in self hatred for decades.But this isn’t about “loving your body.”It’s about understanding:* why food and body image are so tightly linked (and why you can’t fix one without the other)* the realization that changed everything for me after 15+ years of dieting* what “acceptance” actually means (hint: it’s not giving up)* how to let two opposing things be true at the same time* the question that will immediately show you where you’re wasting your energyAnd I also share a very real, very recent spiral I had about my neck (because, yes, I am IN THIS with all of you).This isn’t a “love your body and everything will be fine” episode.It’s about doing the  work of living in your body without making yourself miserable trying to control things you can’t.If you’ve spent years trying to fix your body through food and still don’t feel at peace this one will hit.Connect with JordanaFind me on InstagramSign up for my weekly letter with personal stories and nutrition, body image and mindset tipsSchedule a free discovery call to talk more about working together Listen to more episodes of The Diet Diaries
