87. Why the food noise in your head just won't stop!

From the age of 16 to 26, food controlled my life. People admired my discipline, my dedication to the gym, and my ability to say no to high calorie “bad” foods. But the truth was, it wasn’t about health or discipline for me—it was about self-loathing and control. Food noise consumed me, and I know I’m not alone in this struggle.

That’s why in this episode, we dive deep into the concept of *food noise*—that constant mental chatter about food, calories, and meal planning that can dominate your thoughts and interfere with your daily life.

If you’ve ever found yourself lying in bed at night obsessing over calories, or if social events make you anxious because they don’t fit into your plan, and could therefore undo your progress, then I am talking to YOU ❤️.

We’re going to cover the signs of food noise, such as:

- Constantly worrying about food choices and feeling guilty about eating higher-calorie foods.

- Beating yourself up for going over your calorie limit or avoiding foods because you can’t track them.

- Being stuck in a cycle of overeating and under-eating.

This episode uncovers:
1. Why you might be experiencing food noise and how it developed.

2. Why food noise is bad, and how it slows or even completely STOPS you from achieving body composition goals.

3. Practical steps to silence the food noise and get back control over your life.

4. Why it’s important to address the issue ASAP due to the long term health and mental wellbeing implications.
