A controlling eating habit can look innocent at first, counting macros to adopting a paleo lifestyle, but it starts to cross the line when you begin to restrict yourself from eating because you feel nothing fits your dietary restrictions. In today's episode, I talk to Molly, a teacher based in NYC who has been on her intuitive eating journey for over a year. During our conversation, Molly shares the diets she tried prior to doing the food freedom breakthrough program, and the polarities of diet culture. She shares how she immersed herself in diet culture in college during her fitness journey, the micromanaging and controlling habits of counting macros, and how to finally trust your body.
