Do You Just Want to be "Normal" with Food?
08/24/22 • 21 min
"I just want to be normal with food. Why can't I eat like a normal person?" Have you ever had thoughts like this before? If you are anything like me, at some point, you have asked yourself the following questions:
- Why don't I have discipline?
- Why don't I have willpower?
- Why am I eating all the things?
- Why can't I stop eating?
- Why do I binge eat?
- Why can't I say no to dessert?
- Why do I have to clean my plate?
All of these thoughts are packed in around the thought of "I just want to be normal with food." Here's the thing...this thought that we are not normal implies we are broken, weak, and have no willpower or discipline. And this is simply not true. This ideal is just something that our brain has come up with to make us feel bad about ourselves and like everybody's doing it better than us. I truly believe we need to let go of the thought of being "normal" with food.
About the Host-
Bonnie Lefrak has been in the health and fitness industry for 25 years. As a former bikini competitor, Bonnie helps other women achieve their dreams of being on stage as bikini competitors through her bikini program at the gym she owns in Massachusetts called Fitness Asylum. But as a self-proclaimed professional dieter, Bonnie also realized the toll dieting takes on the human brain.
Bonnie helps women over 40 lose weight without killing themselves in the gym, eliminate all the BS food drama, and help to create a life and body they LOVE. She wants to help women create certainty in their own lives, their own results, and their own abilities. Weight loss is not about the one “right” diet. It is about MUCH more than that.
Weight loss is not about the one “right” workout. Weight loss is not about being positive and putting a big smile on. Weight loss is about FEELINGS. All of them. Not trying to bury them or hide from them but knowing and allowing the full human experience. Weight loss is not about grinding hustling and will powering your way to some end line. Transformation (when done well) is done from the inside out. Transformation doesn’t happen on the scale. She is an expert at Demystifying weight loss and helps you unfuck your diet brain.
