You probably already know a lot about what you think you should eat, how much you should exercise, and what your healthy weight and numbers should be.

You may have worked with experts in the past, or recently visited your doctor, only to be told your numbers are too high and your health isn’t where it should be.

But even with all of these ‘shoulds’ breathing down your neck, you may still struggle to make yourself do what you know you should do.

Maybe you think it’s lack of discipline or willpower.

Maybe you’re convinced you’re just lazy, or weak.

Maybe you’re trapped in a should/shouldn’t, blame/shame, hunger/craving, sad/mad, rules/rebellion relationship with food and eating.

And maybe you feel helpless about it.

It’s exhausting and heartbreaking to be in a daily battle with food and eating.

I lived there for years – comfort eating, binge eating, bored eating, reward eating…

Looking back, I can see just how much worry, stress, and shame it created for me.

Like everyone else, my food story was created in the home I grew up in, where there were so many confusing messages about food and feelings.

As a little girl I’d sneak food and treats and eat in secret to avoid being judged and shamed.

I was taught to use food to avoid difficult feelings – which worked in the short term but did nothing to help me deal with tough emotions in the long run.

There were times when I’d reward myself with certain foods, and then later regret it or judge myself for it

At other times I’d restrict and restrict and restrict, and then if I made one “mistake” I’d say F-it, and eat anything and everything, rebelling against every food “rule” along the way.

I was at war with myself. But as much as I hated it, I knew nothing different.

I always held out hope I’d eventually find the one perfect diet, or cleanse, or quick fix that I’d do forever. In my mind it would make my war with my body and my appetite magically disappear.

It took me a long time to shift my relationship with food into a truly nourishing, balanced, and loving one that wasn’t about counting macros or calories, doing another diet/detox or cleanse, or losing and regaining weight again.

I’ve rewritten my food story and am now someone who enjoys food and eating. – free from guilt, shame, daily weigh-ins, and ‘shoulding’ on myself.

And it feels so freaking good!

Emotional eating no longer runs my life, and I have far more energy to focus on enjoying my life instead of counting macros, tracking food choices, and doling out punishment and regret.

So, before you join Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig for the 3^rd time, I want to invite you to have a completely different conversation about food, eating, and true nourishment.

One where we’ll get clear on what wants to change in your food story.

I’ll show you a whole new mindset that gives you practical tools that are natural, in synch with how your appetite and hunger function, and help you release the negative habits and self-talk, that are hurting you.

You could start unraveling a lifetime of emotional eating today by having a conversation with me.

PS: Any issues you are carrying with you around food and diet and your body don’t have to go forward with you into 2023.

This could be the year when you finally break free from hating your body and battling with food.

This could be the year when you finally understand what your body really needs to thrive, and you start giving it to yourself – not from a place of deprivation and self-punishment, but from a place of knowing what you need to become your very best self.

It all begins with a conversation with me. Email me at Alicia[at]AliciaMorrow.com and we will find a time to talk!
