Love Yourself First with Ariane van Treeck

from The Emily Rassam Show Hosted by Emily Rassam

From 143 kilograms and a binge eating disorder to the finish line of an ultratrail race after a full hip replacement — Ariane Van Treeck's story is not a weight loss story. It is a story about a woman who decided to come back to herself, one step at a time, across two countries and through more setbacks than most people could survive. In this episode, Ariane takes us from her roots in Germany to her life in Italy, through the darkest chapters of her relationship with food and her body, and into the extraordinary transformation that followed — not just physically, but in who she became as a woman, a mother, and a human being. This one will stay with you. @ariane.vantreeck @theemilyrassam Takeaways Love Yourself First Struggles with weight and eating habits led to a drastic lifestyle change Family support and increased energy levels were positive outcomes of the transformation.
