In this episode of the Escape Diet Prison, I am joined by size-inclusive eating psychology coach Florence Gillet.
Florence helps chronic dieters and overeaters reclaim their freedom of body and mind in order to transform their lives. She specializes in working with women and mothers who wish to rise above unrealistic diet and beauty messages to embrace a size inclusive approach, for themselves and for their kids.
She also acts as a volunteer for the Middle East Eating Disorder Association and works in partnership with Dr Nicola Rinaldi (Author of ‘No Period, Now What?’) to help women with Hypothalamic Amenorrhea restoring their hormonal cycles and regaining their fertility naturally.
We talk about:
- her relationship with food and how it evolved over the years
- the struggles with chronic low self-esteem and how that impacted her life
- why she started running and at the same time cleaned up her diet
- why she was diagnosed with Hypothalamic Amenorrhea at age 28 and how she dealt with the diagnosis
- the three main causes of Hypothalamic Amenorrhea
- if there is hope for everyone who is diagnosed with HA and how you can recover your menstrual cycle
- her diagnosis with Hashimoto’s disease and how she went on restrictive diets in the hopes of coming off her medication
- what you can do to rid yourself of the shame of taking medication
- the different forms of dieting/restricting and how they impact your body and psyche
- skin acceptance and why she talks about it is openly
- her tips and tricks that help with learning to accept your skin
- what makes her so passionate about parents not passing on fatphobic, weight-biased values to younger generations
- how we can encourage body confidence and a happy, healthy relationship with food in our children
- the importance of family meals and how they support children beyond body image struggles
- how to raise competent eaters
- and so much more!
