Why The BodyGuard Group?
I’m offering this group because I’m passionate about helping people liberate from diet culture so that they can improve their relationship with food and their quality life.
Living in the confines of diet culture is exhausting, draining, and miserable. As you work to reject diet culture and improve your relationship with food sometimes (especially in the beginning) you find yourself feeling worse not better. You feel more confused than ever and feel like you have this constant battle going on in your head. On top of that, while you’re trying to change, people around you continue to focus on weight, food rules, fad diets, restrictive eating patterns- you name it they say it and make you feel worse! Diet culture is draining and takes the joy out of life.
I see the impact of diet culture on a daily basis in my sessions with clients. There seems to be a similar pattern- you begin to have hope in the process of recovery, but then something happens…you go to dinner with friends and the entire conversation is about the keto diet, how “bad” carbs are, and weight loss. Or, you go to get ice cream with your family and your Mom says that she’s being “bad” and shouldn’t have ice cream. You feel awful and begin to question everything you have done to change your eating.
Fear, anxiety, guilt, and shame around food and body take over. You go right back to doubting what you’ve learned and all the work you’ve done. Your mind returns to thoughts of- are carbs bad? Do you really need that fat? Should you really have that dessert? Aah! It’s overwhelming and feels never ending!
If you’re feeling that way now and want to learn how to reject diet culture and give yourself permission to eat with joy and satisfaction (or at least neutrally) then I have a special invitation for you! The Body Guard Program is enrolling right now. Reserve your spot today!
This virtual group is designed to help push back against diet culture so that you can focus on living your life and improving your relationship with food. It’s hard enough to do that. Diet culture just makes it harder and you don’t need that!
Who leads this group?
This group is lead by Sara Upson, Registered and Licensed Dietitian, certified eating disorder specialist, certified intuitive eating counselor, and certified black belt in rejecting diet culture. (Okay not really, but I do actually have a black belt in karate!) I want to help you live a life where you have freedom from diet culture. Diet culture isn’t going to end anytime soon, but you can learn how to defend yourself against diet culture. Diet culture will still exist, but with your new skills it’s just annoying, no longer catastrophic.
