“Weight gain is not a bad thing.  Weight gain can be a good thing.  Buy the bigger jeans.  Enjoy the pasta!” - Tanya On today's podcast, I'm joined by Tanya, a former client and friend.  After completing my program, I asked her to join me and share her experience with disordered eating, recovery, and everything she's learned along the way. Tanya started working with me 8 months ago and in this episode, she talks about how she has in her words “FINALLY become free of my disordered eating”! Something that she has struggled with for 20 years! Here's what Tanya and I talk about: How her disordered eating started and what it looked like. The stages she experiences during her 20-year journey with disordered eating. Food rules, demonizing carbs and overexercising. After eating more, no longer needing antidepressants. My main health priorities: Mental & Physical Health and Quality of Life. What symptoms of disordered eating can look like (and no, it's not just binge eating). Growing up with a mother who also had an eating disorder. The fears she faced and overcame during her recovery. AND SO MUCH MORE! Tanya shares how she came to accept her weight gain, stretch marks, and cellulite in her recovery process.  Finding a way to embrace them, and to be proud of them as a reminder of her recovery!   Over the course of 8 months, she applied my proven methods and was able to move forward through the difficult process of recovery and even explained how my program actually saved her life.
