National Nutrition Month has begun! So what does this exactly mean? Do we all go on a diet, start exercising, counting calories, or doing all things in the name of health?
The answer is...NO!
I challenge you to take this time to truly examine your relationship with food. So often we are told that it is all about what specific food items you are eating, but if that were true everyone would have this figured out, right? Food is not black and white. Our relationship with food is complicated, but I promise it does not have to be.
Some questions you may ask yourself to start the journey...
1. Do I eat when I am hungry and stop when I am full?
2. Do I eat for reasons other than hunger? i.e. emotions, boredom, stress...etc.
3. Do I do physical activity because I enjoy it or because I feel like I have to?
4. Do I incorporate a variety of foods?
5. Do I have a balance of carbohydrates, dietary fats, and protein?
If you would like to begin the journey of improving your relationship with food please email me directly at caseyvoorhies@gmail.com, call (817) 454-4801, or fill out the online contact form. I am excited for your journey to begin!
Exercise During Eating Disorder Recovery - Movement and exercise, although very important for mental and physical wellbeing, can be a complicated topic while in treatment of an eating disorder. It is important to recognize that the biggest challenge with adding physical activity or movement is receiving the benefits of physical activity without allowing it to trigger relapses during recovery.

How often have you scrolled through social media and come across a video of someone in a grocery store pointing out which product they’d never eat because of “toxic” ingredients, seed oils, or a common additive they can’t pronounce? Maybe they follow it up with a nutrition “fact” that leaves you questioning what’s in your own kitchen. These videos are often framed as educational, but more often than not, they rely on fear – not facts. When fear starts dictating food choices, eating becomes more rigid and harmful.
