"I would cry almost every day because of how hungry I was, but I didn't have enough macros to eat what I needed."
If you've been tracking macros, calories, or points, and you are starting to feel like it's taking over your life, this episode is for you. And even if you don't track, but find yourself thinking about food constantly or that you're failing when you're not following a food plan perfectly, this conversation will resonate.
In this episode we get to hear from Jaimie, a fellow Rebel, who has experienced a 180 in her relationship with food after years of obsessing over numbers. Jaimie shares how food feels less loud now and how she's back to doing things she loves and food no longer dictates her mood, her day, or her self worth.
My conversation with Jaimie paints a clear picture of how something that seems harmless like tracking macros can slowly chip away at your joy, your body trust, and your relationship with food. BUT Jaimie's story also shows what food freedom looks like on the other side!
What You’ll Learn:
If you are tired of thinking about food all the time, Jaimie's story will give you hope that a more peaceful and intuitive relationship with food is possible.
Thank you to Jaimie for sharing so vulnerably so others may be able to break away from tracking and experience food freedom like she has.
