8 Ways to Handle Food and Body Comments During the Holidays

If part of you is dreading the upcoming holiday gatherings because of the comments about dieting, your food choices or body, you’re not alone… and I got you covered.

The holidays are supposed to be about joy, not about surviving the endless parade of unsolicited advice from family and friends on how much you should be eating (or not eating) and what your body should look like. 

If you’re tired of hearing the “are you sure you want that?” or “you’re looking a little full today,” then you’re in the right place. This episode is for you if you're done with that pressure, the guilt trips, and the constant need to explain yourself. 

In this episode, I’ll share practical strategies for handling those tricky food and body conversations with confidence. You’ll learn how to:

• Set loving, firm boundaries with family members (without feeling guilty or rude).
• Handle comments about your food choices or body image that bring up uncomfortable emotions.
• Protect your energy and emotional well-being while still showing up for family gatherings.
• Trust yourself and honor your body, even when others may not understand your choices.
• Navigate social situations with more ease, allowing you to truly enjoy the holiday season without the weight of diet culture or body shame holding you back.
