This week on the podcast Lucy McConnell and I are talking about the biggest mistakes and road blocks people face in hypothalamic amenorrhea recovery.
In this episode we discuss:
- The impact of standing and walking vs. structured exercise on your energy expenditure
- Throwing the towel in too early (and how long HA recovery can actually take)
- The problem with getting stuck on being a certain weight or BMI and not letting yourself go above this
- Being super healthy in recovery and the implications on that for achieving total food freedom
- Only doing "just enough" when it comes to lifestyle changes
- High volume foods and the problems they can cause on your GI tract and recovery
- Exercise as your only stress management tool
- Leaving body checking and avoidance behaviours unchecked
- Numbing out instead of working through emotions
