In honor of the Christmas season (and the 12 days of Christmas), I'm going to be sharing 12 facts about myself and my private practice, Bethany-RD Nutrition

This first fact is all about WHY I am a registered dietitian.

The simple answer is: to help and support others, because someone helped me when I was in need of support and guidance.

I first became familiar with what RD's do when I started receiving treatment for eating disorder recovery. I was approached with both facts and compassion, which for a long time felt like I could either give myself one or the other, but not both.

The experience of receiving care from an eating disorder dietitian has been instrumental in helping me know how to care for my own clients.

I know what that overwhelm feels like leading up to and in that first appointment.

I know you feel sad, scared, tired, and so over the eating disorder.

I want you to know there is help, hope and healing!

Please reach out today to get support in recovery: bethanyrd.com

I have some thoughts about this...

What happens if you no longer believe that being fat is a bad or inherently unhealthy thing?

What happens if you no longer have food rules?

What happens if the lofty principles about food and nutrition that you've been actively believing and sharing with others are actually not healthy?

What happens then?

Digging into your answers to this question is hard work!

It might even rock your identity or some core beliefs.

But this is a necessary part of the healing process in ED recovery.

Once you unpack this (for sure in therapy and probably with your ED dietitian), then comes the action steps.

Eating the off-limits foods

Letting go of the food rules

Eating more food and eating more often

Changing what you're doing with exercise

Changing your self talk, how you talk about food and your body.

When you're ready to do this work, I'm here for you ❤️ Message me or schedule your session today: https://calendly.com/bethanyrd/initial-nutrition-counseling-session

I'd love to "see" you there and support you! I try to go live (on my IG page) once a week to eat a meal or snack and offer some food freedom and eating disorder recovery thoughts.

Who supports you in ED recovery?

While recovery is hard, you don't have to go through it alone.

It can be scary to experience all of these changes, but bringing in more support people can help ease the burden of recovery.

I say this knowing that treatment is expensive and not every one has access or coverage to all the providers and programs they need.

I have recently open up 3 spots for reduced-fee nutrition sessions. If you are uninsured or want to work with me, but I'm not in-network with your insurance, send me a message and I'll send you my application for reduced-fee sessions.

If I'm not able to see you due to location, please know I'm happy to try and get you connected with providers who can see you.

You deserve help, including nutrition counseling and support!

Please reach out today and share with a loved one in need

This is true also for BED (binge eating disorder).

Unfortunately, restriction is normalized by dieting and "healthy lifestyles" in the name of health.

I'd love to unpack what true, authentic health looks like for you. And restriction should not be part of it.
