166. "Cutting sugar and flour stopped my yo-yo dieting": Charlotte
Listen now
Description
As Charlotte was growing up, her parents used food to reward good behaviour. This led her to develop an early love of sugar, especially chocolate. During her teenage years in the 1990s, Charlotte felt pressure to conform to society's ideal of a thin body, and so she aimed to look attractive and lose weight rapidly through  dieting.  And her weight yo-yoed as her relationships began and ended. It was only later in life when Charlotte learned to see food as nourishment rather than rewards or restrictions that she experienced all the benefits of cutting sugar and flour. One of those benefits was the end of yo-yo dieting, and enjoying her stable weight. Another huge benefit was the feeling of fullness. Charlotte had always felt hungry - both nutritionally and emotionally. In fact, she thought something was wrong with her, like she was broken. But when she cut sugar and flour, at long last she was able to experience the feeling of satiety, and peace around food.
