"Carbs make me fat, "
or
"I must not eat after 6pm."
The vast majority of my clients have at least a few diet rules, usually many more.
I know it's a cliché but I love my work. I work with people experiencing eating disorders AND disordered eating (a.k.a. weight loss dieting).
I especially love helping chronic dieters dismantle restrictive food rules.
Do you binge eat, emotionally eat, or frequently overeat to the point of uncomfortable fullness?
