Disrupting Obesity
The Disrupting Obesity podcast is for anyone who’s looking to lose an extreme amount of weight and change their relationship with food so they can keep the pounds off. If you’re tired of feeling judged for being fat, of excluding yourself or being left out, and using food to comfort, reward, and cope with your emotions and the day to day, don’t waste time beating yourself up. You absolutely have what it takes to lose a significant amount of weight naturally in a way that you can sustain and that will ensure you keep the weight off too.
Hosted by Charlotte Skanes, a weight loss coach who lost and is keeping off over two hundred pounds, this show will give you the strategies and mindset you need to drop the weight. It’s going to encourage you and motivate you so that you can build the confidence and self-belief to find the healthiest version of yourself. It’s not about the food. It’s about your relationship with food. Once you start to change that relationship you can start disrupting obesity.

060 When Food Is The Enemy
I’ve been trying to cover some of the more difficult topics on the podcast recently that are hard for me to talk about, but I know have a greater meaning behind them. This one is no different as I share my experience and the implications of being NPO, also known as “nothing by mouth”, for months on end when I was in the hospital and for someone who's been obese. I talk constantly about changing your relationship with food, but have never touched on this time where I literally couldn’t eat or drink anything at all, or use food to cope with what I was going through. So join me as I dive deeper into:
• Medically not being able to eat or drink as a way to cope with one of the darkest moments in my life.
• The difference between loving food and loving eating.
• Did this experience alone change my relationship with food?
• How food became the enemy when I couldn’t keep anything down.
• What was life like after I returned home and could eat again?
• My particular type of diabetes and why I don’t talk about it here.
• What you eat plays a role in your overall health but…
