Can you still strive for body goals whilst giving up dieting and breaking free from binge eating? Good question my friend and this is what my clients ask me a lot. They come to me with the desperate want to stop binge eating but they are still clutching tightly to the hope that the road to recovery will lead to weight loss. I can’t blame them for wanting this. They’ve desired weight loss for most of their life, hence the reason WHY they’re stuck in the diet binge cycle… My answer to this question is both yes and no at the same time!  Whilst we absolutely CAN strive and work towards health and body-related goals, this can only be done successfully AFTER we have learnt how to free ourselves from the dieting mentality which keeps us stuck IN the diet binge cycle. My clients will tell you I must say the words; ‘This is a PROCESS’ a million times over, and for good reason... www.victoriakleinsman.com
