Why Unrestricted Eating Is For Life

Victoria Kleinsman
About this episode

Welcome back to The Body Love Binge podcast! I’m excited to share another powerful interview with you today, where I had the pleasure of being on Livia Sara’s podcast. This is part 2 of our chat on all things body image, bingeing, and how to create a life you absolutely love. Our conversation was so rich and full of insights, I knew I had to bring it to my listeners.


In this episode, we dive into some of the most important and often misunderstood topics in eating disorder recovery, including:

  • The fear of “letting yourself go” and losing control around food
  • Intuitive eating versus intuition eating—what’s the difference and why does it matter?
  • How to find your natural, happy weight without ever restricting yourself again
  • The role that “junk food” plays in eating disorder recovery and why it’s vital
  • Why restriction becomes impossible after experiencing anorexia
  • How to rebuild trust in your body after trauma
  • Fear of becoming a sugar addict and developing diabetes during recovery
  • The difference between needing recovery and truly wanting it


We also discuss some deeply personal topics, like:

  • My experience of gaining weight while fully recovered from an eating disorder
  • Why it’s important to take recovery advice with a grain of salt
  • What it’s like being married to someone who’s autistic and how that impacts my own journey


This conversation is raw, real, and incredibly close to my heart, and I’m so grateful to Livia for creating a space for these essential discussions. If you’ve ever struggled with the fear of losing control or wondered how to trust your body again after trauma, this episode is a must-listen.

Let’s get into it!
