In this episode of the Food Freedom podcast, Coach Mary gets honest about the evolution of recovery and why sometimes, she actually misses the simplicity of the early days. Back then, keto felt like the answer to everything. Life was clear, structured and felt simple, but with growth comes nuance and with nuance comes confusion, overthinking, and fear of doing it “wrong.”

Mary talks about the tension between simplicity and complexity in recovery, how too much information can cause analysis paralysis, and why brutal self-honesty is the only way to keep moving forward. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by all the opinions and noise in the health and recovery world, this episode will help you reconnect with your truth and your intuition again.

In this episode, Mary dives into one of the most harmful myths in the disordered eating and food addiction world: the idea that you can “see” disordered eating by looking at someone’s body.

If you’ve ever been told “It can’t be that bad you don’t even look big enough,” this episode is for you. Disordered eating doesn’t have a “look.” It isn’t defined by weight, size, or BMI. It’s a behavior rooted in excessive restriction, shame, emotional distress, and survival and people of all body types struggle with it.

Mary breaks down why eating disorderly is so misunderstood, how weight stigma keeps people from getting help, and why your pain is real and valid even if you “don’t look sick.” You’ll learn what binge eating actually is, how it shows up, and why compassion, not judgment, is essential for recovery.

This episode is a powerful reminder that if you’re struggling with disordered eating, emotional eating, or food addiction, you deserve support no matter what your body looks like.

Listen in for validation, clarity, and hope as you continue your food sobriety journey.
