Join us as Mary candidly shares her journey from battling bulimia, binge eating, and compulsive eating to finding sustainable recovery through a keto diet.

Here’s what we’ll cover in the video:

Mary's Early Struggles: How a chaotic childhood and early exposure to addictive foods set the stage for her lifelong battle with food.

Keto’s Impact: How changing her diet improved Mary’s physical health and mental clarity, enabling her to tackle deep-rooted issues related to her food addiction.

Sustaining Recovery: Mary discusses the importance of mindful eating and why intuitive eating doesn't work for everyone.

Advice for Others: Insights into how Mary guides her clients through recovery, focusing on empowerment and self-awareness rather than rigid dieting.
