Why Diets Make Us Fat: The Truth About Binge Eating, Shame & Lasting Change | Shahroo Izadi

from Hurt to Healing

Today I’m joined once again by the brilliant Shahroo Izadi for a conversation about dieting, binge eating, shame and why so many of us feel trapped in exhausting cycles with food.We talk about her powerful new book, Why Diets Make Us Fat, and explore why restriction so often leads to overeating, why food becomes such an emotional coping mechanism, and how so many of us internalise the belief that our worth is tied to our body size.What I love about Shahroo’s approach is that it’s incredibly compassionate, practical and free from judgment. This conversation is not about perfection or willpower. It’s about understanding behaviour, breaking shame cycles and learning how to make small sustainable changes that actually last.Buy her book: https://amzn.eu/d/05FDoaqDFind Shahroo:Website: https://www.shahrooizadi.co.uk/Instagram: @shahroo_izadiBooks: https://www.shahrooizadi.co.uk/booksStay Connected with Hurt to Healing:Instagram: instagram.com/hurttohealingpodYouTube: youtube.com/@hurttohealingpodTikTok: tiktok.com/@hurttohealingpodSubstack: substack.com/@hurttohealingWebsite: hurttohealing.co.uk Hosted on Acast.
