Yes wanting to lose weight is normal for women. It Yes wanting to lose weight is normal for women. It’s normal to want to lose weight .It makes total sense for women to think weight loss is the solution to most of their problem in the era of GLP.And let me say this: shaming women for wanting to lose weight is wrong.Hear me out feeling frustrated instead of compassionate when you hear a clients say,“….but I need to lose weight”is a sign of a gap in your training and that’s okay.What matters is understanding the reasons behind your client desire to lose weight.Here’s what could be behind the desire to lose weight:👉”I don’t want to be judged or risk being judged.”👉”I want to feel safer.” 👉”I want more energy to do what I love.” 👉”I’m afraid of getting sick or want to heal.” 👉”want to avoid physical or emotional suffering.” 👉” I want to feel accepted and fit in.” 👉”I want to feel comfortable in my body.”This is a what needs to be solved, not the layer of fat aka the weight.Stephanie#nondietdietitian #beyondthefood #psychologyofeating
The #1 mistake people make when working on health The #1 mistake people make when working on health habits ...⁠ ⁠ It's gaslighting themselves into health-promoting behaviours.⁠ ⁠ Self-gaslighting looks like...⁠👉Forcing themselves into health habit through self-criticism ⁠👉Shaming themselves into action with the thought, "I have to___"⁠ ⁠ Bypassing our consent leads to rebellious behaviours, inconsistency, and short-term result.⁠ ⁠ Being in a consensual relationship with ourselves and our health is how we create long-term, enjoyable, consistent health-promoting behaviours.⁠ ⁠ A consensual relationship looks like...⁠👉Choosing to pursue health-promoting behaviours or not.⁠👉Creating safety for our choice regardless.⁠👉Compassionately meeting ourselves and being supportive of our choice ⁠👉Reminding ourselves that we can always change our decisions later.⁠ ⁠ Consent is is the cornerstone of The Going Beyond The Food Method and our approach to behavior modification.⁠ ⁠ Give it a try and lemme know what happen.⁠ ⁠ Do I want to?⁠ ⁠ Stephanie⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #weightinclusive #weightneutral #weightinclusivenutrition #healthateverysize #HAES #antidietpractitioner #coaching101 #nondietdietitian #nondietnutritionist #registereddietitian #therapist #rd2be #inclusivecare #continuingeducation

…..but I felt much more confident when my body was …..but I felt much more confident when my body was smaller.”

Maybe you truly believe it’s true for you right now.I know I did for more than 25 years.

But the reality is that losing weight and existing in a smaller body did give me the safety of fitting in, not genuine confidence.

Shrinking my body to meet society’s “normal and acceptable” expectation for women’s body did protect me from judgment, criticism, discrimination, and rejection.

I felt safe, not confident. 
When confidence is shaken by a change in the size of our body, it is never confidence you felt; it’s the safety of compliance to society’s expectations.You felt safe because you thought you were protected from your fear of judgement and rejection.

Confidence is created by the thoughts you think about yourself in the solace of your own mind, not the size of your body.Confidence is the result of knowing that you will have your own back no matter what happens.Create safety and building up your confidence with this simple move;1- Buy clothes that fit your now body and that feels comfortable now 2- Refuse to entertain the self-critical thoughts about no longer fitting in your current clothing. 3-Courageously think compassionate thoughts that support your decision to prioritize you and your own comfort.Doing this will create safety and confidence.Do you want to grow an unshakeable confidence and live a life you’ll never regret ?#Beyond the food #bodyimage #intuitiveeating

Compassion creates safety and helps your nervous system rewire its reaction.⁠ ⁠ If you are a professional helping other human in the process of changing eating habits, be sure to coach with a trauma informed lense... and better yet intersectional coaching.⁠ ⁠ I’d love to hear your personal experience with overeating and binge eating👇️... let’s chat in the comments.⁠ ⁠ Stephanie⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #nondietditian #nondiettherapist #intuitiveeatingcoach #antidiethealthcoach #womenshealthcoach #foodfreedomcoach #mindbodyeatingcoach #bodyimagecoach #holisticnutritionist ⁠ #weightinclusive #weightneutral #weightinclusivenutrition #healthateverysize #HAES #nondietdietitian #nondietnutritionist #registereddietitian #therapist #rd2be
