Something I misunderstood for years about overeating

Mar 10 • Updates

For a long time I thought my eating struggles were about willpower.

I believed that if I could just “be more disciplined” everything would fall into place.

But what I eventually realised thanks to learning how to become an intutive eater was that my overeating wasn’t about lack of control at all.

It was actually a very normal response to restriction.

When your body believes food is scarce or forbidden, it naturally pushes you to eat more whenever you can.

Once I understood that, something shifted.

Instead of fighting my body, I started learning how to listen to it.

That was the beginning of making peace with food.

Question: Did you ever feel like your eating struggles were about willpower?
