Mindful eating isn’t about restriction. It’s about enjoying your food without guilt or losing control

In this episode, I break down the real reason December feels so overwhelming and show you how to take your power back. If you want to stop emotional eating, reduce stress, and feel in control this Christmas, this is the mindset shift you’ve been missing.

December is not the problem. The real problem is the story you tell yourself about December. One meal turns into “I’ve blown it.” One slip turns into “I’ll start in January.” That belief triggers the spiral. Not the food. Not the parties. Not Christmas itself.

Most women over 40 expect to fail over Christmas, then restart in January with guilt and restriction. This episode shows how to break that cycle and lose up to 10lbs without dieting, missing out, or feeling out of control.

Helen shares how years of dieting, low self-esteem, and feeling uncomfortable in her body led her to consider both NHS and private weight loss options. She explains how a new approach helped her rebuild her confidence, improve her mindset, and lose over 45 kilos while finally enjoying life again.
