Following each binge, I’d dive into HOURS of online searches for new diets, meticulously planning how much weight I’d lose by a set date.

It was an attempt to ease the guilt and shame. Little did I realize, the solution made the binges worse.

If you’re nodding along, I can help you. Let’s work together - Z🤍

many others face similar challenges in private but often feel too ashamed to talk about them. Sharing these experiences helps dissolve shame and fosters empathy and understanding. You are not alone. It’s time to get the help you need and deserve

Sadly, some of these get you praise and claps in 2026 🙃

A person does not suddenly develop an eating disorder. It starts small and subtle. Small experiences like:
😕 feeling guilty after a delicious meal
😕 feeling stressed when you can’t track your exercise
😕 getting anxious over calories
😕 weighing yourself everyday and feeling anxious when you cannot
😕 starting a diet every single day

These quietly accumulate over time. Having some of these signs does not automatically mean you have an ED but it’s a sign you’re in territory worth paying attention to. And wherever you are with it, I promise you, it is still possible to have a healthy relationship with food and your body 💗 - Z Zeynep Demirelli Sağ, MSc. | Eating Disorder Therapist

Binges are not a willpower problem. It’s actually a sign that an emotional need needs attending and food is the go-to coping mechanism.

Was h€r0in chic ever really out? Or did it just get repackaged — and served back to us as “being healthy and disciplined”?

In the 90s the name itself admitted the danger, and the standard was for models. Now the same look is the norm, sold as clean living and discipline and that rebrand matters, because you could push back on “pretty,” but nobody pushes back on “healthy.” Add an algorithm that serves it to you before you ever go looking, and the same old pressure arrives with a permission slip.

These slides are the short version. On my Substack I go deeper and get more personal: what our nonnas still know that we’re unlearning, and where GLP-1 fits into all this.

And if your own feed has been feeling like a drill sergeant lately, book an intro call with me for therapy (link in bio)🌱

We don’t expect a chihuahua to look like a greyhound, do we?
The thought of it even sounds weird.
Why don’t we extend the same acceptance to our bodies?
Every body is unique!

First it was fat-free everything. Then carbs became public enemy number one. Then it was calories in, calories out. Now it’s protein; you must track it, hit your number, “maxx” it. We’re honestly so tired of these trends. Let us eat freely!!

It may seem small to you, but listening, showing empathy and asking “How can I help? I’m here for you” can be the thing someone needs the most when they struggle with an eating disorder. It doesn’t have to be an overcomplicated, sometimes the simplest help is the best one. ❤️‍🩹

“But no one has ever openly said anything about my body. I don’t know where these thoughts came from”

Sometimes, you learn indirectly through listening to the way the adults around you talk about their own bodies. You can absorb those messages without even realising it, and they can shape the way you learn to see yourself.❤️‍🩹
