Disrupting Obesity
The Disrupting Obesity podcast is for anyone who’s looking to lose an extreme amount of weight and change their relationship with food so they can keep the pounds off. If you’re tired of feeling judged for being fat, of excluding yourself or being left out, and using food to comfort, reward, and cope with your emotions and the day to day, don’t waste time beating yourself up. You absolutely have what it takes to lose a significant amount of weight naturally in a way that you can sustain and that will ensure you keep the weight off too.
Hosted by Charlotte Skanes, a weight loss coach who lost and is keeping off over two hundred pounds, this show will give you the strategies and mindset you need to drop the weight. It’s going to encourage you and motivate you so that you can build the confidence and self-belief to find the healthiest version of yourself. It’s not about the food. It’s about your relationship with food. Once you start to change that relationship you can start disrupting obesity.

049 Grief Eating
Grief is such a personal and universal thing that so many of us deal with. Although it is never an easy thing to talk about, I felt it was important to share my experience with grief eating and my relationship with food during a particularly hard period of loss in my life. I’ll talk about how I got through it and what to be conscious and aware of if you are experiencing something similar in your own life. So join me as I navigate:
• Eating for different emotions and associating food with people and grief.
• Reflecting on not having the time to grieve properly in the middle of loss, pregnancy, recovery and responsibility.
• Breaking down the 3 categories of comfort, reward and cope eating.
• Understanding when your emotional eating has become a problem and using the 3A Way to acknowledge, process and have a level of awareness with what you're experiencing.
• Why you need to keep tracking if you want to change your relationship with food.
I hope this episode encourages you to break out of any patterns or cycles of guilt and shame, because you will get through this! Always remember: Keep trying, keep tracking, don’t be intimidated and don’t give up. You’ve totally got this!
