358. Stop Dieting: Choosing Balanced Over Healthy Eating

Have you ever tried to “eat healthy,” only to end up feeling frustrated, restricted, or guilty the moment you eat something “off plan”? You’re not alone. So many of us start with the best intentions, but somewhere along the way, “healthy” starts to feel like a trap instead of freedom.

Here’s the truth — healthy isn’t always balanced. It’s actually a very fluid term that can look completely different depending on who you are and how you view food. And when our version of “healthy” gets too rigid, it can lead to an unhealthy relationship with food and sabotage the goals we’re working so hard to reach.

In today’s episode, we’re unpacking the difference between healthy and balanced eating — so you can finally step out of the diet cycle, find what works for your body, and experience peace with food again.

And if you need help creating a more balanced plan that fits your life, I’d love to help. You can reach out to me at taraj@dietditching.com, or come join our Facebook community, Lose Weight, Live Free, where we’re learning to ditch the diets and live in freedom together.
