Episode 97: Self-Sabotage, Food Noise & The "F%ck It" Spiral

You know that moment when you're standing in front of the cupboard thinking "I don't even want this" but you eat it anyway? And then you're left wondering what the hell just happened and why you keep doing this to yourself?This episode is about unpacking what's actually going on in those "fuck it" moments. Spoiler: it's not laziness, it's not lack of willpower, and you're not broken.In this episode I talk about:Why I'm challenging the term "self-sabotage" (and what's really happening instead)The most common reasons we eat things we don't actually wantHow restriction can backfire and make certain foods feel louder in your headWhy being too tired or under-eating might be driving the behaviourThe role of habit loops and how to start noticing themWhat happens when you've been in a deficit for too longHow to be a detective instead of beating yourself upPractical questions to ask yourself instead of "what's wrong with me?"If you've ever felt stuck in this pattern, this one's for you.Links:Website: www.ruthmacfit.com for coaching and to join us in our May/June reset.Instagram: @ruthmacfitGot questions or want to chat?
