Michelle felt trapped in a cycle of shame and self-blame, appearing disciplined and controlled at work but collapsing into cravings and guilt the moment she walked through her door at night. Through Dr Teresa’s approach, she discovered that her struggle wasn’t about willpower, it was about healing the emotional weight she’d been carrying, and she finally found the freedom and self-trust she’d been searching for.
For decades, I was at war with myself, and the battlefield was my relationship with food. On the outside, I looked like I had it all together with discipline, control, and focus at work, but the moment I walked through the door at night, it was like a switch flipped.
I gave in to cravings I couldn’t fight, and afterwards, I would collapse into guilt and shame, sometimes hiding just to cry. I thought something was fundamentally wrong with me, that I was weak, and that I would be stuck in this exhausting cycle forever.
Working with Dr Teresa completely shattered those beliefs and changed everything about how I understood my struggle. She helped me see that this wasn’t about willpower or being weak, it was about the emotional weight I had been carrying for years without even realising it.
Together, we rewired my mindset and dissolved the triggers that once controlled my every evening, working through the deeper patterns that kept me trapped. Dr Teresa’s approach integrated practical nutrition guidance with powerful emotional work, helping me understand why I turned to food and what I was really seeking. She gave me tools to process emotions without using food as a coping mechanism, and slowly, something miraculous happened.
My cravings simply lost their grip on me, and I began making nourishing choices with ease, not from discipline or deprivation, but from genuine self-love and inner peace.
Yes, the weight started to come off naturally, but what I gained was so much bigger and more profound than a number on the scale. I gained freedom from the constant mental battle, from living in fear of food, and from the crushing shame that had defined my relationship with eating for decades. I no longer hide or cry after meals, and I’ve stopped seeing food as the enemy or myself as broken.
For the first time in my life, I trust myself completely, and that trust, that inner peace, is the most powerful transformation of all.
