    Hello, intuitive eaters! I'm thrilled to be back with you after a short break. I initially planned to return in September, but I missed our conversations and your wonderful support. Thank you for your lovely messages wishing me well during my time off; they truly mean a lot to me!

    What’s New?

    During my break, I took some time to reflect on the Eat From Within membership options. I’m excited to announce a new 4-month subscription plan! Imagine entering the holiday season with a healthier relationship with food and body image. You could enjoy Christmas dinner without the stress of calorie counting or worrying about your outfit. Check out the links section below in the show notes to sign up!

    This Week’s Topic: My Experience with Noom

    In this episode, I’m telling you all about my experience with Noom, a popular app that claims to support weight loss through a unique approach.

    I wanted to try it on your behalf and share my insights from an intuitive eating perspective. I’m going to spill the beans on all of this:

    The sign-up processCalorie counting, and whether I was given enoughTracking and logging foodColour-coded food categoriesDaily weigh-ins and how they made me feelExercise trackingConstant reminders from the appIn-app lessonsNoom’s holistic approach to well-beingHow it works with intuitive eatingHow it feels mentally as well as physicallyAnd whether I’d recommend it or not

    Also, the episode I refer to about standing on the scales and weighing myself, and what that brought up for me, is way back at episode 4. Go give it a listen!

    I'm taking a little break. Just having a few weeks off. While I do that I'm giving you the replays of some of my most popular episodes.

    Whether you've heard them before or not, I encourage you to give these replays a listen and see if you notice anything new. Just a heads up, there may be some outdated details like my previous business name and social media handles, so be sure to check the show notes for accurate information.

    Intuitive eating helps improve your relationship with food, but the desire to lose weight can often remain, so can you use intuitive eating for weight loss? This week I'm talking about whether or not it is possible to be an intuitive eater and lose weight at the same time.

    Let’s have a good natter about the will to lose weight, the correlation between weight and health, mindset, values, goals, and what to do if you’re in that middle ground between wanting to lose weight and wanting to be an intuitive eater.

    In this episode, we explore the ways to kickstart your journey away from dieting and into intuitive eating.

    If you have started intuitive eating, this is a good time to bring your focus back. But if you’re new to it, here are a few starting points to get going with it:

    ✨ How can you begin intuitive eating today?

    ✨ Are you aware of the impact of diet culture in your surroundings?

    ✨ Are you in tune with your body's cues for hunger and fullness?

    ✨ What does your mealtime routine look like at home?

    ✨ Do you give yourself intentional, focused time to eat?

    ✨ Are distractions keeping you from listening to your inner intuitive eater?

    ✨Are you mindful of what you're eating, or is it mindless eating?

    ✨Are you introducing foods you truly enjoy into your diet?

    ✨Have you decluttered your social media of negativity?

    Remember, the beauty of intuitive eating lies in its pace. Take your time, embrace these principles gradually, and grow comfortable with each step along the way.

    This one is by far the most listened to, so I thought we'd start here!

    It seems when I started this podcast we were just coming out of the dreaded lockdowns, so it was odd listening back to how I was talking about taking a trip into town and finally getting a long overdue bra fitting.

    But the main topic of the episode is the reasons why it's not your fault if you find yourself constantly yo-yo dieting. I discuss the impact of diet culture and beauty standards on our subconscious and how it affects our self-image. I also share some eye-opening observations from a week-long experiment I conducted to track the prevalence of diet and beauty-related content in our daily lives.

    I also touch on the first principle of intuitive eating, which is rejecting the diet mentality. It's a challenging process, especially when we're constantly bombarded with messages that reinforce unrealistic beauty standards.

    Plus I share a positive encounter where individuals engaged in an actual sensible conversation about weight loss and overall health!

    Whether you're new to intuitive eating or not, this is a great one to listen to and get some awareness of the influences around you on your eating habits and body confidence.

    A quick update on where I am right now, and my plans for the next few weeks.

    Don't panic, I'm not quitting the show, but I do need to take a little break. Listen in and I'll tell you what my plans are for the podcast for while I'm away.

    Mop up your tears, know that I'm still here, and take advantage of the replays I'm going to share with you. Revisiting old episodes really can provide new insights and shine a light on some aspects of intuitive eating and body positivity that you might not have spotted yet.

    Thank you so much for the support and understanding that you lovely listeners always give me. I promise to return with fresh episodes in September.

    Stay in touch though. Look at all these lovely links full of ways that you can still have me in your world. 👇👇

    Today, for a bit of fun, I’m bringing you my 10 commandments of dieting. Let’s break some rules of dieting. From ‘thou shalt worship the scale’ to ‘Thou shalt find salvation in achieving the 'ideal' weight’, and all the commandments in between.

    I'm talking about carbs and calories, trends and exercise, social media and food validation, body acceptance and comparison. So much to talk about, so many rules to break!

    I also couldn’t let this episode pass by without a mention of Bridgerton. No spoilers though I promise. And we have a new family member. The Tales From The Cat Diaries may be coming back!

    I looked at some photos recently and caught myself saying "I wish I could still wear that,", but do I really??

    I’m taking a somewhat nostalgic journey through the fashion trends of yesteryears. From shell suits and banana clips to heather shimmer lipstick and mini skirts, I’m reminiscing about my past fashion choices and reflecting on what still appeals to me today (hint, not very much of it!!).

    This is why I’m talking about the evolution of her personal style and the importance of wearing clothes that make you feel confident and comfortable, no matter your age or current trends. It’s all about personal preference in fashion and finding your own style, making shopping enjoyable, and dressing for yourself rather than for others' opinions.

    Get ready for a delightful mix of fashion nostalgia, and practical advice!

    In this week’s episode I’m going to guide you through the incredible benefits of journaling as a tool for supporting your body positivity and intuitive eating journey.
    Journaling has helped me confront and change negative beliefs about my body and self-worth so I wanted to share some tips with you too.

    I’m talking about,

    ✏️How writing helps process thoughts more efficiently.
    ✏️What to use to be able to journal.
    ✏️Ideas for what you can journal on.
    ✏️When to journal.
    ✏️How journaling helps you to question and change external beliefs.
    ✏️How to keep your writing private.
    ✏️How it can become a habit that provides comfort and relief.
    ✏️How journaling can be imperfect and messy.
    ✏️How it’s ok to be negative in your journaling.

    I encourage everyone to give journaling a try and would love to hear about both your new and seasoned journaling experiences.

    Before I get into that though, I’ve got loads to waffle on about. Podcast acoustics, the northern lights, the shockingly high prices in Iceland (the shop, not the country!), and the incredible documentary from Aubrey Gordon, "Your Fat Friend".

    Also, a highlight of today’s show for me is getting to read out a heart-warming piece of fan mail that truly touched me, praising the authenticity and realness of this podcast. Your support means everything, so thank you Jo.

    Hey everyone, it's Terri here, welcoming you back to my podcast.

    Today, I'm getting real with you about taking responsibility for my own actions. I'm stepping up to take better care of myself, especially with my battle against chronic fatigue syndrome. It’s been a rough ride, and honestly, I’ve let some things slide more than I should have. But you know what? It’s time to change that.

    In this episode, I’m opening up about everything from my struggles with food trucks vs. veggies, and how joining the Wonkee Club has helped me to start to turn things around. I got inspired by Scottee, this awesome yoga instructor, who’s all about embracing different body types and just finding joy in yoga, however you can.

    We'll chat about the everyday challenges people like us face, and how I’m learning to navigate these while taking better control of my health and happiness.

    It's definitely an honest and open episode on my part!

    Hey everyone, welcome to Episode 129 of our podcast, “People Don't Like Change.”

    In this episode I am tackling a pretty big topic, how people change towards us as we start to change our attitude towards our bodies and food. As we change and become our genuine, body positive, intuitive eating self we often hear comments from people around us that make us question their friendship. So this week we’re talking about staying strong amid the negativity, breaking down those comments, and really focusing on what's best for our own well-being, and I'm talking about why the harsh things people might say about our bodies or food choices often say more about them than us.

    I will also take us through some changes happening right here on the podcast - goodbye to our less active Facebook group and hello to our cool new texting feature! Plus, we'll dive into how being part of a supportive group, whether it's online or in person, can totally transform our journey towards loving ourselves just as we are.

    I've even got some personal shares, like updating my office space, and the amazing well wishes received from you lovely lot after my sad news last week.

    So, grab your favourite snack, settle in, and let’s get into it.

    Welcome to Episode 128 of our podcast, "Body confidence in the workplace, why it matters and how we can all help". Today, I'm going to delve into a sensitive yet crucial topic that affects many professionals: body confidence and its impact on workplace dynamics and personal performance.

    Let me take you through various aspects of body shaming and bias in professional environments, from subtle comments about food choices to explicit biases in job selections and office interactions.

    I'll share some personal anecdotes and broader insights on how negative body image manifests in the workplace. We're talking ineffective diet competitions, poor relationships with food, and diminished self-esteem, all of which can profoundly affect one's career and mental health.

    Furthermore, I'll discuss the importance of fostering a supportive work culture that embraces diversity in body types and provides a safe space for mental health discussions.

    Join me as I explore strategies to combat body shaming, promote body positivity, and create inclusive workplace policies.

    Whether you're an employee, manager, or HR professional, there's much to learn about the significant role body confidence plays in shaping our professional lives.

    I talk about my chat with Jenna Dale on her podcast, Because She Can.
    You can find that here.

    In this week’s episode I’m talking to Charlie Garnham.

    Charlie is a Human Design expert, specialising in helping women to move away from their Good Girl conditioning and stepping away from the frantic “doing” of their businesses and lives and finding more flow and ease by becoming the natural leader they were born to be. Intuitive, yet practical, Charlie uses the Human Design system to uncover your personal map to success in life through teaching the system to others and guiding them to embody their unique design.

    A marketer in her corporate career, Charlie has spent her life trying to understand why she is so different and found the answer in her experimentation with the Human Design system which has enabled her to stop feeling stressed and bitter, and live with ease in all aspects of life.

    In my conversation with Charlie, we talk about the concept of human design (a system that helps individuals understand their true selves and what makes them different based on their time and place of birth), and its application in areas like eating behaviours, emotional states, and movement habits, with an emphasis on aligning individual needs with lifestyle choices for improved well-being.

    Some of the things we covered are:

    ⭐ How human design can be linked to how people approach eating behaviours and body confidence by understanding your individual conditioning and learning your unique decision-making process.

    Let's talk about whether or not you should watch Fat Friends.

    With the focus of the Netflix show being based around people who met at and regularly visit a diet club, it is understandable that you might be wary of watching if you're trying to escape dieting yourself.

    I'm going to explain how I see Fat Friends through my very own eyes - the funny and satirical, the sympathetic approach to its characters, and how we can relate to the depiction of different foods chosen when on a diet, loss of control around food, and how dieting affects family members' relationship with food.

    The show highlights fat shaming in and out of diet clubs, laughs at all the clichéd sayings related to diets, addresses relationships with people when you're in a bigger body, and more. It's sympathetic and designed to make you laugh out loud at dieting.

    It's funny, it's sad, it's heart warming, and it's light-hearted. Let me give you a whistlestop tour, and then you can make your own decision on whether to watch it yourself.

    It’s food waste action week. Reducing food waste is a great thing for us all to strive to do, but as someone coming out of dieting and trying to make peace with not having to finish everything on your plate to do this can be quite difficult. It can plunge you straight back into a dieting mentality.

    There are many reasons why we might be uneasy about wasting food. Let’s chat about why that might be, and then let’s find ways to reduce food waste without compromising on your intuitive eating habits.

    Here's the food sharing app I talk about: Olio
    There may be others, but this is the one I have experience in using.

    Bingeing looks different to different people, but whether you are a diagnosed binge eater or have simply had a massive blow out and now feel absolutely terrible for it, those feelings that you are left with after are awful. You can feel guilt, shame, embarrassment, and like you need to undo it all somehow. In this episode I'm going to help you to work through that.

    I have some tips to help you understand where your binge eating or overeating may have come from, how to process the thoughts and feelings, and some ideas for what to do after a binge to help you feel physically and emotionally better.

    In this episode I talk about my binge restrict pendulum episode too. This might be a great one to listen to next if you haven't heard of it before, and you can find that at episode 97.

    Have you ever had those days when nothing seems to go right? Well, let me start you off in this episode with with my own mishap involving some highly anticipated chicken nuggets and chips. Let's call it nugget-gate.

    Nostalgia's a tricky thing, and in this episode, we're not just reminiscing about the fashion disasters (hello, neon!) but also wading through the deeper waters of body image and identity.

    In this episode, host I am delving into the concept of embracing change and letting go of attachment to the past. We'll get deep and consider the very concept of reality. Remember those late-night philosophical debates about life and existence? Well we're on the verge of that today!

    Let's look a why sometimes, saying goodbye to our old selves—complete with those bootcut jeans—can open doors to brighter new experiences. It's all about celebrating growth and fulfilment, even if it means letting go of the body and lifestyle we once knew.

    Let's explore the idea that the past is not real; what is real is how we have evolved and changed over time. I'm talking about...

    The tendency to romanticize the past, whether it's longing for previous body types, lifestyles, or relationships., and the importance of recognising that memories often come with rose-tinted glasses, focusing on the positives while overlooking the negatives.How our past experiences shape who we are today, and why the only genuine reality might just be our ever-evolving selves. Through the lens of body image and self-acceptance, challenging the desire to return to a previous body type, examining what you truly miss about your past seld and whether those desires are rooted in genuine improvement or attachment to the familiar.Surrendering to the flow of life and allowing oneself to evolve without resistance.The importance of self-love and acceptance, urging you to make friends with the current version of yourself.

    Hopefully this inspires you to move forward with acceptance and appreciation for the journey of personal growth, and allowing you to detach from the past.

    So, pull up a chair (and maybe some snacks—just keep the

    We are at the end of the back to basics series! We have looked at each of the 10 principles of intuitive eating, and hopefully it has helped you to understand them a little bit better, and see how they fit for you, in your life.

    I do want to finish off with a quick episode that will help you to bring it all together, and give you some final tips and words of wisdom.

    I’d like to take a few minutes to talk to you about what order to work through the principles of intuitive eating (hint, there isn’t on!), about having patience and compassion in the process, and about the importance of support while you’re on your journey.

    Oh, and I have a little reminder of how awesome you are at the end for you.

    Today in my back to basics series I’m talking about intuitive eating principle principle 10, honour your health - gentle nutrition.

    Gentle nutrition is very intentionally the last of the intuitive eating principles.

    In this episode I am going to help you find a way to consider nutrition without being overwhelmed or all consumed by it.

    I’m explaining how diet plans put a large focus on nutrition, and make you feel guilty for not being ‘healthy’ enough.

    I’ll also explain why terms like healthy and unhealthy are words you should stop using, and give you a new way to think about it.

    And I’m going to help you to understand how you can tell from the way your body feels what kind of nutrients you need - in a very gentle, intuitive way.
