## Resource

What if reaching your goal weight doesn’t give you what you’ve spent years believing it will? In Episode 419 I’m talking about the complicated relationship between weight loss, body image, eating disorder recovery and true food freedom. As someone who has been food sober for more than 12 years, I’ve learned that recovery can change your relationship with food dramatically while still leaving other layers that need attention. I’m sharing some of my own experience with body image, the expectations we attach to changing our bodies, and what I’m still learning all these years into recovery. If you struggle with food addiction, binge eating, disordered eating, chronic dieting, body dissatisfaction or the belief that you’ll finally feel better when you lose the weight, this episode is for you.
