CALORIE COUNTING. So many of us have done it (and many still are) but is this actually helpful? The truth is, in many cases, calorie counting can be a manifestation of disordered eating. I know, SHOCKING, especially because calorie counting is so normalized in our culture. Today on the podcast we talk about some surprising truths about calorie counting and how to break up with this practice if it’s not serving you. 

In This Episode We’ll Cover:

• Our personal experiences with calorie counting (yes, we’ve both done it)
• Why counting calories can be problematic (the list is lonnnnng)
• A step-by-step plan for how to stop calorie counting using methods that have been helpful for our clients & MORE

Our podcast is released every Wednesday and each week we take a deep dive into topics like health at every size, food & culture, intuitive eating, mental health, and body acceptance. If you’re looking for a sustainable and inclusive path to wellness, come hang out with us to learn how to take care of yourself from the inside out.

 

Last month we shared an article written by our dietitian friend Heather Caplan that lit our DMs on fire chillle. The article was essentially about how disordered eating was the new clean eating. A lot of you were shook by this statement (we weren’t expecting that) and wanted clarification. We got a TON of questions, comments, and concerns about your own eating habits (or eating habits of loved ones) and we wanted to address it all. 

Today on the podcast, Heather is here to answer all of your Qs and help us come to a compassionate understanding of what disordered actually eating is. We’ll be covering:

• What is disordered eating/how does it look like in an everyday setting/how does it differ from eating disorders?
• Is calorie counting inherently a disordered practice?
• What to do if you’re worried about making sure you’re getting enough protein and micronutrients in during the day. Is it okay to track food for this?
• How to support loved ones who you suspect have disordered eating patterns. One person shared concerns about her boyfriend potentially having an eating disorder & MORE

She is the author of the book, The Year of Cozy: 125 Recipes, Crafts and Homemade Adventures, which was released in October 2015 (Rodale).
