Today’s topic will hopefully spark some healthy self-reflection when it comes to your eating patterns and relationship with food and your body.
Eating behaviors occur on a spectrum. At one end sits healthy eating behaviors and on the other are clinically diagnosable eating disorders. There are a lot of gray area eating behaviors in between that fall into what is now recognized as disordered eating (DE) behaviors. The term “disordered eating” refers to food- and diet-related behaviors that don’t meet diagnostic criteria for recognized eating disorders (EDs) but may still negatively affect someone’s physical, mental, or emotional health.
The truth is, it’s become difficult to know when habits like these that have been labeled by diet culture as healthy fall into the pattern of disordered eating. In this episode, we explore the various characteristics of disordered eating to help you identify these behaviors in your own eating patterns. You’ll also be guided through an exercise to identify the impact that dieting has had on your mental, physical, emotional and social life and what you need to do to step away from disordered dieting behaviors and toward healthier, sustainable eating habits.
