Mud Stories is a podcast dedicated to bringing you inspiration in your muddiest moments, hope to make it through your mud, and encouragement for you to know, you are not alone.
In today’s episode I’m talking with Mary Lou Caskey—a certified life coach, speaker, and author whose aim is to help us all ditch dieting, and find joy and peace with our food.
Mary Lou helps with struggles of body image, weight, and the private messages we tell ourselves about food. And she is passionate about helping us all ditch dieting—by replacing eating rules, judgment and the diet merry-go-round—with freedom, hope and joy!
Mary Lou has written a book called, Show Your Food Who’s Boss: Gain Freedom, Lose Weight & Keep It Off
In this episode we discuss:
- Mary Lou’s personal mud story that contributed to her repeated weight gain and weight loss through the years
- The tragedies she faced that compounded her struggle
- And the secret to her eight-size weight loss once and for all
Mary Lou shares:
- How she used food to medicate her pain
- How she stayed overweight to avoid the fear of attention and attraction that being thin brought
- How the messages we tell ourselves about eating and food can be so defeating
- And how–when it comes to food and our weight–understanding God’s love for us and choosing to heal from the inside out, over time, is more important than we can ever know
