Show Notes

This episode is brought to you by my online course, PCOS and Food Peace. You CAN make peace with food even with PCOS and I want to show you how. Join our Facebook group to get extra support!

Episode’s Key Points:

• Comparison is natural, but it can really get in the way of making peace with food!
• Beth Rosen joins for some insight.
• Body checking and comparison is super common for chronic dieters.
• How does our inner mean girl reinforce diet culture’s rules??
• The beauty industry, the diet industry, and the fitness industry ALL conspire to keep us stuck in our own heads, constantly comparing ourselves to others.
• We can talk back to our inner mean girl and build up our inner girl power so she can fight back! Come up with some body neutral responses to respond to the negative voices that give you unhelpful commentary about your body.
• Your practice will make progress!! The more often you speak up against internalized diet rules, the sooner your brain will believe it. This is called neuroplasticity.
• What do we GAIN when we LOSE dieting??
• Diet’s don’t help us! It’s time to leave dieting behind for good.
