On paper, I was the kind of person who always got things done. I had a disciplined work ethic. When I really cared about something, I went all in.

But there was a disconnect.

Because I truly valued my health too ... So why did I keep sabotaging myself with compulsively overeating?

Even if I made it the whole day without a binge, I'd still be dipping cookies in peanut butter by 9pm. 

Given that I believe discipline = freedom, I believed the answer was more self control.

So I made notebooks and speadsheets with resolutions and plans for my healthiest life. 

But in the end, it was just a whole bunch of "Day 1's." Always trying to start new on a Monday, or the 1st of the month. Because before long, it would all fall apart.

It made no sense, because I knew what to do and still couldn't do it.

I was crushing it, working in the weight loss field, helping many others lose weight through programs and classes I created. I managed fitness trainers and dietitians.

I could tell you in less than 3 seconds how many calories any food had. I knew more about nutrition than My Fitness Pal.

I had a strong spiritual connection, and could talk all day about the importance of meditation, and controlling the mind. 

But when the day was done, I'd hide in the car binge eating an entire pizza.

I felt like a fraud.

Some days were worse than others. But when it was really bad, my belly would hurt so badly it was hard to stand up straight.

I remember Googling whether it was possible for my stomach to burst from eating too much.

I tried to scare myself into stopping the binges.

I took more classes in nutrition. I studied how bad sugar was for me, hoping that would stop me from buying the box of Oreos.

I did the math on how much money I was spending on binge food, hoping the savings would inspire me to stop. (Did you know $20 of extra food a day = $7,300 per year?) 

I'd step on the scale and measure my body fat five times a day trying to monitor my progress. 

When that didn't work, I tried using inspiration to stop myself from binge eating.

I tried to control my mind through meditation, hypnosis, acupuncture, tapping, and energy work. I tried to heal through therapy.

I tried cleanses, laxatives, appetite suppressants, supplements, 30-day bootcamps, and detoxes.

I went to Overeaters Anonymous and food addiction sobriety meetings.

When nothing worked (at least not for long), I finally realized this wasn't a self-control issue at all.

I began to compare how the the brain of a compulsive overeater works, versus the brain of a “normal” eater.

It became so obvious why all these things that I was doing weren't working.

I felt a huge relief of hope, knowing that I could end the madness and finally be free.

With the tools and principles I'll teach you in my classes, podcast (or personally if we work together), you will learn exactly what you need to free yourself too.

And yes, for real this time.

I never thought this day would come.

Now my relationship with food is effortless.  I eat healthy because I want to. I remember the first time I actually CRAVED celery. I remember the first time I had Girl Scout Cookies in the house, and genuinely didn't have a desire to eat them.

Now, years later, countless people have freed themselves from years of out-of-control eating too.

I've seen mothers break the generational pattern of passing down an eating disorder to their children.

I've seen self-proclaimed sugar addicts completely forget that chocolate was in the cupboard, and have no desire to eat it.

I've seen people with 20+ years of disordered eating finally claim their freedom, even after years of therapy, doctors, medications, and even surgery didn't work.

Freedom from binge eating is not only possible ... it's well within your reach. 

Yes, freedom from binge eating takes work. But we love work! As long as it's work ... that works.

I invite you to further explore these pages, and see how we do it, so you can do it too.

Here's to your freedom!
