Key Points:

• Overweight = Over What??
• What if no one ever told you your weight was wrong? How would you relate to food and your body? Important questions to consider as working toward healing.
• Healing can happen by honoring the valid functions and roles food plays in life and coping with life's transitions, stressors, and traumas.
• Healing also happens when we jump off the diet train instead of focusing on being on or off the wagon. Disembark now!
• Grief work will find a place in this space and that's ok.
• What if focused more on a healing relationship with food instead of a healthy relationship with food? Will be less all or nothing and pefectionistic tendencies (which helps no one experience health).
