Ditch the Diet and Make Peace With Food

Service Description

If you’ve ever been on a diet, you might be familiar with the effects of rigid rules and restrictions. Maybe you’ve experienced “yo-yo dieting”. Yo-yo dieting, also called weight cycling, is a pattern of losing weight and then regaining it. Research shows us that chronic weight cycling may be doing long-term damage to our bodies, not to mention our mental health. This includes an increased risk of depression, anxiety, heart disease, diabetes, gallstones and decline in muscle mass. There may be some guilt or shame surrounding eating. For many, this cycle leads to distrusting the body, and a worsened body image. More importantly, AT LEAST 75% of dieters gain more weight back within 4-5 years. Clearly, diets don’t work! Despite these facts, the diet industry is a multi billion-dollar machine! Different diets come with different rules, which produces a lot of confusion and conflict surrounding what to eat and what to avoid. Intuitive Eating* offers a way to ditch the diets, the diet cycle, and the shame, and find an authentic way of honoring your health.
