Michaela Putala, RDN 🍪 End the restrict binge cycle
🌿 Make peace with food + your body

01/02/2026

Because that looked like chaos...🌀

Eating what I wanted, when I wanted, how much I wanted… I believed I’d just eat sweets all day, feel like sh*t & hate myself.

Which made sense! For years I’d been ignoring my hunger and controlling portions.

But healing is MESSY.

At first, I ate a lot of cookies & felt guilt and ate even when I wasn’t hungry.

I thought I was failing. But I was just in the messy middle.

🌀 Where I had to sit with the discomfort.
🍪 Challenge the voices saying I was “out of control.”
🧠 Relearn hunger & fullness… because I had no idea wtf I was doing.

I took it slow and at my own pace. Some days felt okay, other I panicked. But slowly things shifted.

Now- I eat the cookie, enjoy it and move on. No guilt or second-guessing because I fully TRUST myself. 🍪

If you’re stuck in the messy middle right now… This is exactly what I walk my clients through in my 1:1 program.

So you can stop the spirals, silence the food noise & finally feel calm around food.✨

Comment “QUIZ” to take the new Messy Middle Quiz 👇🏼

If this is you —

This doesn’t mean Intuitive Eating doesn’t “work” for you! 💕

You’re just stuck in the MESSY MIDDLE and skipped a few steps.

After years of dieting your brain + body are not on the same wavelength 🌊
 
It’s going to take time, tools, and guidance to get them on the same page.

Take the messy middle quiz to find out where you are and how to get out of the mess.

Let’s run through them, shall we 👇🏼

❌ “Just use positive affirmations”
Saying “I love my body” when you don’t? That’s not healing, it’s gaslighting yourself.

❌ Just avoid mirrors + pictures
Avoiding the mirrors + pictures doesn’t fix the fear… It fuels it.

❌ Just lose weight
If your thoughts don’t change, no body will ever feel good enough.

Here’s the truth:
No amount of weight loss will make you love your body. Because bad body image isn’t a body problem… It’s a mind problem.

What to do instead:
✨ Explore your body stories: “People will judge me.”
✨ Challenge the stories and fears
✨ Sit in the discomfort instead of running back to weight loss.

By doing the mindset work… That’s when you finally stop tying your worth to your body. ♥️

If this hit close to home...

This is the exact work we do in my 1:1 Coaching Program.

We untangle the messy layers of food + body image struggles. So you can finally feel at peace in your skin.

You’re not restricting anymore.
You’re trying to eat normally.
So why are you still bingeing?

I hear this all the time from clients and I’ve been there too.

It feels like you’re doing everything right... but food still feels like a battle.

Here’s the truth people don’t tell you:
The MESSY MIDDLE is real.

That place where you’re no longer deep in dieting but you’re still obsessed with food.

🏷️ Still labeling.
🌀 Still spiraling.
🧠 Still feeling out of control.

It doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.

It means you’re learning a whole new way to be with food & that takes practice.

This is exactly the kind of work I do in my 1:1 program.✨

If you’re ready for personalized support & someone in your corner while you learn to actually trust yourself with food...

Here’s what they don’t tell you👇

In beginning you will overthink, second-guess and panic when you finally eat what you want.

Every moment feels like a negotiation:
“Should I eat now?”
“Is this gonna make me gain weight?”

But here’s the thing: 
Healing requires you to unlearn years of restrictions & beliefs about food + body and forces you to sit in the discomfort.

This is the MESSY MIDDLE of intuitive eating.🌀

Where you eat the cookie but still feel guilt.
Where you order the fries but can’t stop thinking about your weight.

And the only way to peace is through the messy middle… But it won’t last forever.

You deserve a life where food isn’t a battle and your body isn’t your enemy.

💌 If you’re stuck in the messy middle right now, this is exactly what I walk my clients through in my 1:1 program.

Ever catch yourself eating something “just in case” you’ll binge later? 😬

Or forcing yourself to eat a “safe” food even when you don’t want it?

This is the cycle I help my 1:1 clients break.
We don’t just give permission… we figure out what you actually want and why.

That way you can finally build TRUST with your body.

Some days you’ll say yes.
Other days you’ll say no.

But that choice will dome from intuition, not fear or guilt.

You might be restricting without even realizing it. 👀⁣

Let’s talk about it 👇🏼

It’s NORMAL to eat loads of food after restriction.

Sometimes that hunger feels extreme & can even look like a binge.

Which can be TERRIFYING.
Especially if you’ve only ever heard bingeing is this terrible thing you shouldn’t do. ❌

But after severe restriction (even just mental) your body has to catch up & feel safe again.

YES, you may develop binge eating patterns after anorexia.

That doesn’t mean your body is doing something wrong. It’s just trying to undo years of not getting enough.

What keeps you stuck is SHAME and the “I need to control this” mindset. The more you fight your hunger the louder it gets.🧠

Recovery starts when you let yourself eat, even if it feels like “too much.”

When you break the food rules mentally & physically… your hunger will settle & your body finds a rhythm. 🎶

This is the exact healing work I guide you through in my 1:1 Program✨

So you’re not navigating this confusing, scary phase alone.

I walk you step-by-step through honoring the hunger, calming the panic & rebuilding body trust so food can finally feel peaceful.

Imagine enjoying a slice of cake for dessert and it NOT turning into a binge… 🍰👇🏼

It’s neutral.
There’s no guilt.
You move on.

What if I told you this is possible for you?

I know it is, because not only is this my story…

But it’s also the story of the many people I’ve worked with who’ve broken free from the binge cycle and finally feel at peace around food. 🎉

Because the truth is: Your body isn’t broken, it’s protecting you.

And once you stop fighting your hunger and start honoring it… the binges will stop and your appetite will stabilize.

If 2026 is the year you want to break the cycle for good, I’d love to help you.

Because if you’re white-knuckling your way through “just one serving”

That’s not a solution… It’s torture.

Portion control doesn’t fix WHY you overeat. Are you restricting too much? Unsatisfied?Stressed?

You can measure perfect portions all day, but if the root cause is still there, you’ll just end up stuck.

Real change comes from understanding and dealing with what’s driving the overeating.

This is the exact healing work I guide you through in my 1:1 Program✨

I walk you step-by-step through uncovering the triggers & rebuilding trust with yourself so food can finally feel peaceful.

Here’s the FIRST things I have my clients do who struggle with overeating ⬇️⁣
⁣
Eat enough + consistently.⁣
⁣
Diets have taught you it’s all about eating less. But that’s the reason you’re in this mess of overeating every night. 🚫⁣
⁣
Not eating enough has MAJOR consequences:⁣
- Thinking @ food 24/7⁣
- Out of control eating⁣
- Brain fog & much more!⁣
⁣
Imagine what life would look like if you had the brain space to actually live your life instead of obsess over food.
⁣
So where do you START? 🤔⁣
⁣
If you’re tired of feeling like crap with Intuitive Eating & you’re ready to find peace with food and your body👇🏼⁣

This is exactly what I help you do in my 1:1 Program.

I spent YEARS trying all of these.

And it only made me binge harder. Because none of this addresses the REAL problem.

The binge isn’t the problem. It’s a SYMPTOM of restriction, food rules & trying to control.

And you don’t need more tips to fight the urge- You need to understand why the urge is there in the first place.

If you’re exhausted from battling your own brain and done with advice that makes it WORSE,

I’d love to invite you into my 1:1 Food & Body Peace Program✨

Where we break the binge cycle at the ROOT so you can finally feel in control.
