Two FORMER Bikini Competitors share why they LEFT the FITNESS INDUSTRY

🖥 » NO COST class → "My 4 Step Framework To Stop Feeling Obsessed With Food"👇 https://www.damnthediets.com/register -------------------------------------------- x ----------------------------------------------------- Basing our self worth on external validation is a set up for low self esteem and the suppression of expressing our true authentic selves, in order to please others. We lose ourselves in that process. We become addicted to external forms of acceptance. Maybe it’s time to learn to accept yourself, take a break from the daily scale weigh-ins, body pinching, mirror flexing, excessive workouts, selfie taking, body shaming, and checking of social media likes, hearts, and compliments. I’m Kayla Rose Kotecki; I like to say I’m a “rebel” Holistic Nutritionist. I have a past of being in-prisoned in the fitness model industry, as well as immersed in Orthorexia, Anorexia, and Bulimia as a result from the Fitness Modeling and Competing lifestyle side-effects, but fortunately have overcome them all reclaiming my life, joy, and health…. Through my journey, I came to discover the thing that would bring me the most health and sanity, was to break free from the arbitrary and dangerous imposed restrictions, rules, dietary limitations, body shaming, and overtraining. This is how Damn the Diets was created: to help those who wish to live a life of freedom from the fears and guilt around food, exercise and the oppression of body image. I want to remind people that we don’t have to go to the extremes in order to find health and fitness. There is a lot of misinformation floating around about what health and fitness looks like that only shows the highlights of what goes on within the fitness world. People are ignorantly following competitors, models and other clean eating / fitness social media accounts without a true sense or heads up of what they’re getting themselves into if they too, follow the harsh diet and exercise regimens. For example, binge eating post dieting, digestive problems, hormonal imbalance, amenorrhea for females, body dysmorphia, control issues, inflexibility, ruined relationships, heart and other organ problems, and so much more. Health goes so much further than looking aesthetically perfect. True health, self-love and fitness means something that is sustainable for the long term. It comes from finding a balance (your own unique balance) that gives you the freedom to pursue passions, aspirations and opportunities. Self love and acceptance does not come from having a six pack, fitting into a pair of skinny jeans or the number of compliments you receive from friends, family, or strangers?! Nor does it come from agonizing over whether you hit a caloric deficit, or a certain amount of workouts that week.. Maybe you bought into that crap out there that you’re not worthy until you meet these specific standards? I’m here to tell you, if you’re on this perfection quest, nothing will ever be good enough once you get to that point. You will arrive at this point whether it’s losing weight or perfectly following a “clean” dogmatic diet trend for purity, and you’ll arrive with the same negative and degrading mindset. Instead, it is wise to work on changing our mindsets, where we’re currently at, without comparison to others around us will help us to find our worth beyond the number on the scale, the calories consumed (or lack of), the body % fat you’re obsessed to hit or whatever the case. Let me help you learn how to re-develop a healthy relationship with food, exercise, and your body again. -------------------------------------------- x -----------------------------------------------------
