Cyclical Weight Loss
Medical Treatment or Lifestyle Intervention?
If you are in a state of dis-ease, your body is screaming at you to provide it with some help and self-care, which is almost always remedied, at least in part, by reassessing your lifestyle and making some much-needed improvements. You’re in charge of your body and, while you can seek advice and guidance from a variety of health professionals, your body and your health are ultimately your responsibility.
Food Bullies

Feeling uncomfortable in your own body or to the extreme, self-loathing, is a very debilitating issue and far more common than you may think. We have two choices – to decide to ‘own it’ or to seek assistance to change it.
