“I just want to stop eating when I’m full!”
If you find yourself asking this question more often than you’d like, you are not alone.
Eating past the point of fullness is not only physically uncomfortable, but can be emotionally distressing, too. Especially when you don’t know why it’s happening and can’t figure out how to make it stop.
There are many good reasons to explain this experience. And none of them are because you lack willpower.
This workbook highlights a couple of big ones and offers some super practical tools to help you get back in touch with your appetite cues.

Why I created this resource
So often when I start working with a new client who has a long history of yo-yo dieting, who’s “tried everything” to lose weight, and who’s also now exhausted from dieting but doesn’t know what to do instead they’ll say something like, “why can’t I stop eating when I’m full when other people can?”
This is a BIG question and there are many contributing factors. However, in my many years of experience doing this work, there are a couple of very common themes, which have everything to do with how diets and diet culture mess with our biology and our psychology.
I created this resource because I want to:
Help you understand that your struggles with food are not a personal failing; and
Provide tools that can start you on your path to eat in a way that feels good and heal your relationship to food.
