by Michelle Yates, MS, RD, LMNT
Nobody likes talking about their relationship with food... so let's talk about it.

Here, science finds self-compassion. Michelle breaks down the why behind food struggles, from binge eating and emotional eating to body image, perfectionism, and “food noise” that won’t quit. Expect honest conversations, expert insights, and mindset shifts that go far beyond meal plans and macros. Because true food freedom isn’t found in another detox plan, it’s built from the inside out. Fair warning: logical, realistic, reasonable, and evidence-based methods ahead.

Are your food thoughts normal?
You just ate. You're not even hungry. And your brain is already on to the next meal. Counting. Negotiating. Planning tomorrow's fresh start before today is even over. Is that just how everyone thinks about food? Or is it something more? In this episode, I'm digging into food noise, the term that took off in the GLP-1 era when people on Ozempic and Wegovy suddenly noticed the constant chatter about food went quiet. But for those of us who work in eating disorders, this isn't new at all. I...

"I do great all day, but the evenings are like a free-for-all" Here's why.
You hold it together all day. Then the night falls, and it all comes undone. The pantry. The drive-thru. The kitchen's secrets after everyone's in bed. You swore today would be different. It wasn't. And you can't explain why it keeps happening. In this episode, I'm breaking down the two biggest culprits I see behind nighttime eating spirals (one of them has absolutely nothing to do with food). I'm painting the picture through the two women I see struggling with this most: the woman working f...

How to Stop Getting Triggered by Your Weight
You step on the scale. You see the number. And just like that, the whole day is decided. Maybe it's relief. Or? It's a spiral. Either way, that number has been running the show for years. Maybe decades. You're so tired of it. In this episode, I'm walking through the toxic relationship so many of us have with the scale. We talk about how it got this way, why your brain is actually doing exactly what it was built to do, and the six steps (plus a bonus seventh) I take clients through to get...

Hunger and Fullness Cues: Explained
Don't feel hungry until it's slapping you in the face? Fullness doesn't exist unless you're to the point of feeling sick? Did intuitive eating totally flop for you? In this episode I'm diving into the science behind hunger and fullness, why it's so hard for some people to experience those signals, and how to get to a place of consistent, regular signals that are gentle + helpful rather than loud + obnoxious (or just nonexistent). JUMP TO: [00:00] Why hunger and fullness feel like a my...

Tracking Food Might Be the Reason Behind Your Binges.
You've done the math a hundred times: log breakfast, log the snack, subtract lunch, figure out what's "left" for dinner. And somehow you still end up going over. Every. Single. Time. The thing I've noticed over my 6+ years of working with women struggling with their relationship with food is that the more you try to control food with numbers, the more out of control you actually feel around it. In this episode, I'm breaking down: -What's happening psychologically when you turn eating into ...

When Reaching Your Goal Weight Lets You Down.
You've lost the same 20 pounds more times than you can count. You get there, you feel the thrill... and then it's gone. And you're already onto the next thing you want to fix about yourself. In this episode, I'm asking a question most of us never let ourselves sit with: why did you actually WANT to lose weight in the first place? Not the surface answer — the real one. I'm sharing a story about a client whose secret binge eating had nothing to do with willpower, and everything to do with so...

Why Do Sweets Call to You So Loudly From the Other Room?
The cookies call to you from the pantry every. freaking. day. You told yourself you'd stick to one cookie. Then the whole day felt "ruined" anyway. So why not just keep going? Sound familiar? That's the all-or-nothing loop... and we're going to talk about it. In this episode, I'm breaking down why cookies (or chips, or cake, or whatever your "off-limits" food is) ends up feeling so much more powerful than it actually is. I'm walking through the three real reasons we hand certain foods that...

Why Meal Plans Backfire 🔥
What if the meal plan is making things worse? I get it… you ask yourself, “Why is eating an ice cream just... eating an ice cream for some people?” No spiral. No math. No mental war. For you, it’s a whole event. And that’s exhausting. That’s why you feel like you NEED someone to tell you exactly what to eat, right? A meal plan. A calorie limit. A macro split. But do you? This week I'm breaking down the real reason food feels so loud in your head, and how these “plans” actually make thi...
