Mindful Eating – An Interview with Dr. Michelle May – and Giveaway

Last week I had the chance to sit down and film a phone interview with Dr. Michelle May, author of the book Eat What You Love, LoveWhat You Eat. She’s a former dieter who came to realize how damaging this cycle of "eat, repent, repeat", is to our bodies. She teaches patients, clients and readers how to regain their love of food, while training them to eat mindfully and relearn how to trust their bodies to tell them how much food they really need.



She was so fun to talk to and this interview was exactly what I needed to keep me in the right frame of mind of ther holidays. I’m a firm believer in the kind of eating and living she’s talking about but it's so hard to stay focused and this was the perfect push in the right direction.

She also sent me a copy of her book and an extra copy to give away on the blog. If you’d like to read it so you can use her tips to sail joyfully through the food-laden weeks ahead, leave a comment on this post listing one physical activity you plan to do over the holidays or one favorite healthy snack idea.

Reading Eat What You Love, Love What You Eat has been really eye opening to me. Michelle May, MD is someone who gets what it’s like to not be at peace with food and has been able to transform her life and her relationship with her body and with food. The book can positively change the way you eat and how you feel. I love this book!

I want to be sure and give a big thanks to Coca-Cola for hooking me up with this interview opportunity!

Comments will close Wednesday night at 9pm PST and a winner will be chosen by random number generator. I will only ship within the US. Good luck!
