In today's episode, we explore the sneaky ways diet culture infiltrates our lives, even when we think we're not dieting. Many of us follow food rules believing they aren't diets, but the reality is, diet culture is clever and insidious. From meticulously counting carbs and calories to sticking to "safe" foods, these behaviors often stem from a diet mentality disguised as healthy eating.
We'll uncover:
- The subtle signs of pseudo-dieting or unconscious dieting
- How diet culture rebrands itself to fit modern health trends
- The emotional and physical toll of restrictive eating patterns
- Why intuitive eating and faith-led wellness are crucial for true health
Join us as we strip away the masks of dieting behaviors, such as tracking every bite, eating only at specific times, and feeling guilty about food choices. We'll discuss the deceptive nature of "clean eating," detoxes, and meal plans that seem innocent but can trap you in diet culture.
Are you ready to embrace a healthier, more intuitive relationship with food? I'll also share details about my upcoming group program launching this fall, designed to guide you step by step toward faith-led wellness and intuitive eating.

[00:00:00] So you may have said at one point in your life that you've given up on dieting or you may truly believe that the way you are eating the habits that you have isn't really a diet.
[00:00:13] But like I've said before, many people these days don't believe that the food rules they are following are really a diet but the reality is that diet culture is smart and sneaky and keeps up with the times.
[00:00:29] Chances are, the way that you're eating is actually rooted in a diet culture way of thinking. It's just been dressed up and disguised so you can't see it for what it really is.
[00:00:40] Just remember that any thoughts that center around losing weight or changing your body even in the name of health usually leads to diet like behaviors. The restriction, the rigid food rules, labeling foods, good versus bad, feeling guilty about what you eat and the list goes on.
[00:00:58] We call this pseudo dieting or unconscious dieting. I really like to call it dieting in disguise because they can be really hard to recognize. It's like in Matthew chapter 7 verse 15, when Jesus warned of the wolf dressed up and sheaps clothing.
[00:01:15] We need to be aware of these diet like behaviors and thoughts that keep us stuck in a diet culture traps and lies.
