Restriction. We hear it’s bad and only leads to binging. We also hear you need to restrict any and everything “bad”. So is practicing this good or bad? That’s what we talk about here.

Show Notes:
Today, we are going to talk about a very controversial topic on Restrictions. I mentioned this within my episode on Nutrition Privilege, but I wanted to dive deeper.
If you feel like being healthy and wanting to honor your body with health and fitness, but also don’t want to be mentally unhealthy with all these crazy rules; Should I restrict? Should I set boundaries? Should I follow this whole food freedom, anti-dieting, anti-weight world? Or should I just throw it all out the door?
This is a very important topic, especially that we’re entering the season of holidays.
