✨ 5 disordered eating behaviours disguised as wellness ✨

We see lots of different “health” trends in clinic, but many of them often disguise disordered eating behaviours.

Here’s a few common ones we see often:

🥛Cutting out food groups due to “intolerances”

🥬 Always choosing low-calorie options

🍞 Avoiding refined carbohydrates

🍔 Cheat meals

🚫 Skipping breakfast and calling it “intermittent fasting”

Let us know if any of any of these are familiar!

PSA: Binge eating is NOT a result of poor control

PSA: Binge eating is NOT a result of poor control or lack of discipline‼️

In fact, the more we restrict and try to control our foods, the more susceptible we are to binging 🤯

Why is this? 💭

When we tell ourselves we can’t have a certain food, it only intensifies our desire and craving for this food. The more we continue to do this, the more these feelings intensify until the inevitable happens - we lose control and we binge.

After a binge, it’s likely that you will feel ashamed or guilty. It can be common for us to then try and tighten the reigns even further, and restrict even more 🚫

If you can relate this this, you may be caught in what’s called the “binge-restrict” cycle 🌪

This cycle can be very difficult to break, and unfortunately can result in a poor relationship with food and our bodies.

If you are caught up in the binge-restrict cycle, our experienced dietitians can help you on this journey. You can book a free 15-minute discovery call by following the link in our bio 📲
