As a recovered emotional eater, I know when you're in it you fee like there's no way out.

You try everything: making bargains with yourself that if you workout x amount of hours you can have those brownies (yet somehow the gym time doesn’t manage to take away the food guilt). 

You tell yourself you’ll just finish this bag of chips, but then you aren’t going to buy them again. Until the next time you’re in the grocery store and they magically find their way into your cart. 

You make rules saying you’ll...

Do you ever feel like everything in your life is coming up roses, but there's that one thing just that one little thing that you can't seem to conquer no matter how hard you try?

And the discomfort of that stuck-ness, of that frustration has you wanting to reach for anything that will give you a nice little dopamine hit: food, social media, alcohol, anything that can stop you from feeling like you want to crawl out of your skin.

Well, that was me last week.

I told my therapist recently that I've never...

If I were to ask you how you unwind after a long, stressful day, what would your answer be?

For many of us, especially post-pandemic, the answer would be a glass of wine... or scotch... or whatever your drink of choice may be.

And here's the thing, if you're happy with your weight, your physical health, and your mental wellbeing, and you enjoy a cocktail every night, I say more power to you!

But most of us are not there. 

Most of us are struggling with unwanted weight, anxiety, depression, gut...

Can you imagine a world where weight loss happens without counting calories? Where food no longer consumes your thoughts? Where treats happen without guilt?

Believe it or not, all of that can be your reality. The key to claiming it as such? Intuitive eating.

I can't begin to tell you how many clients come to me post-keto, sick and tired of following such a restrictive diet, looking for a more balanced, sustainable way to lose weight, but unable to shake the fear of carbs that keto instilled in them. 

What I find food fear truly stems from is either a lack of information, or misinformation spread about a particular food (and keto has mastered the art of misinformation). 

So let's clear some things up around how carbs actually affect the...

Sometimes I feel like it comes across as if I don’t ever struggle with cravings, or emotional eating, or portion control. But trust me, even this nutrition coach still faces the same challenges you do from time to time.

Case in point, just a few days ago, as a rather uneventful weekend came to a close, I found myself bored as f**********ck. Again and again, I kept hopping off the couch to go peer into my pantry, looking for something to munch on. 

Ya’ll let me tell you, had I been relying...

Thanksgiving. During a NORMAL year it's a minefield of stuffing, pies, and alcohol, threatening to send us down the slippery slope of holiday season fuck-it-ness.

Then 2020 came along and said, "Hold my pumpkin beer."

This season we aren't facing the desire to overindulge with the fam. We're staring down the challenge of keeping our heads (or more accurately, our waistlines) while possibly feeling extreme stress, loneliness, and grief over what we're missing out on this year.

And THAT can be a recipe...

Who’s done it? Raise your hand high ‍if you do really well with your eating Monday through Thursday, then Friday night hits and your habits go to hell in a hand basket for the next 3 days.

I know I have! You make it through a stressful week and the ultimate reward is that Friday night pizza you enjoy while watching Netflix. 

Then Saturday hits and you find yourself gravitating towards those chips and cookies you did so good at avoiding all week. 

Then Sunday comes and it’s time for brunch and...

In my early years of hypothyroidism, before I was even aware I had Hashimoto’s, I hated my body. I despised the little ring of fat around my tummy, my soft arms, and the stretch marks starting to form on my inner thighs. 

But I’m no victim, I wasn’t going to just stand there and let my thyroid dictate what I looked like. So I got to work. 2-a-day workouts were my norm, combining strength and cardio to burn off every bit of fat I could. I treated carbs like they were the enemy, waiting for me to...
