Outweigh

Treat Yo Self with @lauraleabalanced

In keeping with the theme of discarding diet culture rules, Laura Lea started making 'treat videos' to practice eating and sharing foods that used to be off limits. Her journey to this point wasn't easy, but what food freedom means to her, right now, is this: if she wants something that is conventionally considered ‘indulgent’ or ‘unhealthy’, she has it, she enjoys every bite until she's satisfied, and she doesn't create meaning or stories or value judgments about it before, during or after. We hope this chat about her 'treat videos' and the meaning behind them is helpful to those of you who would love to have cake as you please, even for breakfast!  Instagram Handle: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lauraleabalanced/">@lauraleabalanced</a>Website: <a href="http://www.llbalanced.com/">www.llbalanced.com</a>  This podcast was edited by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/houstontilley/">Houston Tilley</a> Learn more about your ad-choices at <a href="https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com">https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com</a>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
