002: What is Disordered Eating and Do I Have It?

True Food Freedom & Faith with Cheryl Szarko, RDN

If your story is anything like mine, you may be starting to see that your relationship with food and eating is becoming a problem. Maybe it’s causing hardships in your life, relationships, behaviors, emotions, or even your faith. You know something is off, but you’re not quite sure what the problem is. It is possible you may be living with something called Disordered Eating.

Disordered Eating is somewhat less recognized and discussed than full-fledged Eating Disorders, but this doesn’t mean it isn’t life-altering and highly problematic. Disordered Eating is an unnatural and distorted way of thinking about and planning for eating episodes, as well as the resulting thoughts and feelings regarding food and eating. It can affect your emotions and your sense of value as a human being. Disordered Eating is also a common pathway to a diagnosable eating disorder.

In this episode, I will discuss what Disordered Eating is, signs you may have this tendency, and 3 helpful steps to take on your journey to freedom from Disordered Eating!
