How To Know If You're Restricting

KAT RENTAS
About this episode

Are you caught in the dilemma of wanting to eat healthier without feeling restricted, yet know you need to eat less to lose weight?

In this episode, we’ll dive into the key difference between food restriction and emotional deprivation.

Understanding these concepts is the key to solving overeating without restricting yourself from foods you love.

You’ll learn:

→ The distinction between not eating enough to support your body's needs and feeling emotionally deprived

→ Examples of clients who successfully overcame overeating challenges without feeling restricted

→ Effective strategies to recognize and manage feelings of deprivation with food, so you can have a freer approach to weight loss

→ How to build trust with yourself to eat in alignment with your body's needs without overindulging

Turns out, you can have a relationship with healthy eating and weight loss, where you hone the skill of not overeating without restricting yourself along the way.
