Explore why the fantasy of being thin can feel more powerful than reality—and how constant longing keeps us from truly living.

What if food and body struggles aren’t really about food or your body? They’re often symbols, pointing to deeper emotional hungers beneath the surface.

Is being skinny actually healthier? The research on body weight and health is more complicated—and more surprising—than most of us have been taught.

We treat height/weight tables as if they are truth. We believe they are based on sound science. But, in fact, most height/weight tables are based on questionable research which began in the early 1900's.

“I feel so fat.” “My thighs are disgusting.” “My stomach sticks out.” “My butt is too big.” “I feel huge.”  We hear these comments so often, including within your own thoughts. But, these thoughts are not facts, are not feelings, and are not even truths. Even those who have lost weight have found that these thoughts, feelings, and beliefs either do not change or return down the road.
