If you’re a chronic dieter who’s hit “diet bottom” and you’re exhausted and frustrated at the thought of yet another diet,
Discover Intuitive Eating…
Stop yo-yo dieting and re-discover a healthy relationship with food!
Freedom to Eat Forever™
Can you relate?
- You feel like a failure and are embarrassed every time you “go off” your diet and regain weight.
- You want to finally be at peace with food, you want food to be a “non-issue” in your life.
- You are afraid to give up dieting because you feel you will eat out of control.
- You don’t believe you will know how to eat without a set of rules. You have lost all trust in yourself and your body.
- You are overwhelmed with all the nutrition info out there and feel frustrated and lost on how to eat.
It’s time to give up dieting, restriction, deprivation and guilt around food so you reclaim your freedom to eat and create a body you love!
You CAN do this.
Myth #1:
You need willpower in order to get a body you love and respect.
Wrong! Living in a body you love and respect has nothing to do with willpower but more about healing your relationship with yourself (and food.)
Myth #2:
The best way to eat for “good health” is to follow a set of rules that tell me what foods are “healthy” for me and which are not.
Absolutely not! While there is a time and place for learning about nutrition, there are no hard and fast rules that you “need” to follow. Learning to be an intuitive eater means your body will guide you to the choices that help it feel its best.
Myth #3:
You can’t be trusted around certain foods.
Once you incorporate these powerful principles, you’ll be able to enjoy chips/sweets or any former “trigger” foods in moderation.
“Before working with Bonnie, I was frustrated with the constant disappointment and failure when trying to diet and lose weight. Since going through the Freedom to Eat Forever™ program, I have developed a whole new mindset and perspective. This has allowed me to break free of dieting and concentrate on creating a healthy and balanced lifestyle in which I can enjoy eating and make the right decisions regarding my fitness and nutrition. I highly recommend working with Bonnie. She is a knowledgeable, supportive, and generous practitioner, who cares deeply about her clients. She has had a profound effect on my journey thus far and I look forward to continuing to work with her in the future. She is simply the best!
~JoAnne G.
“This is the best thing I have ever come across and have ever done for myself. It is so worth the investment of time and money, I highly recommend it.”
~Gerda F.
You haven’t failed the diets; the diets have failed YOU!
It goes far deeper than what you put in your mouth.
In fact, most of my clients find their food struggles have little to do with food.
After all, you’re an intelligent woman. You’re smart and capable and you’ve been committed to losing weight. You know HOW. But you can’t seem to Keep IT OFF because you haven’t figured out the REAL underlying problem.
That problem has nothing to do with calories or exercise or even nutrition. It does have to do with what’s in your head.
See, chances are, you’ve been brainwashed by the $60 billion dollar a year diet industry (and that’s just in the U.S.!) Fad diets, “special” foods, monthly memberships, pills, drinks and all the rest are a business designed to get you to be a customer for life.
All those celebrity doctors and “gurus” have built their businesses on it. And if you’re like a lot of chronic dieters, you’ve spent a lot of money on diets only to be disappointed. You might even blame yourself like a lot of the women who eventually come to me for help.
See, diets are based on stringent rules. Don’t eat this, do eat that. And most chronic dieters are good at following the rules. You’ve probably cleaned out your kitchen and pantry of chips, soda, and other “bad” foods, spent a few hundred dollars on expensive specialty items and told yourself you didn’t mind subsisting on celery sticks. No really, it was all good.
And for a few days you followed your eating plan as devoutly as a new religious convert.
This is going to be the one.
Look at how good you’ve been!
But at some point, you’re tired of feeling deprived. Maybe you’ve had a hard day and that double fudge brownie in the break room is REALLY calling your name. You ate the one after that too. And then, since you’ve caved anyway, you go on an eating binge for the next week.
When you finally emerge from your self-induced sugar high, you beat yourself up for “slipping.”
In reality, you were simply succumbing to human nature.
It’s NOT your fault!
My clients have tried every diet program, cleanses, calorie counting, banning certain foods from their lives and everything you can think of in an attempt to change their body.
Except for this. Intuitive Eating.
It’s a radical approach that goes against everything the “diet industry” teaches you. Once you embrace this approach you’ll feel more at peace to live your life to the fullest.
Intuitive Eating Coach
My biggest gift is my ability to provide caring support and motivation as you rebuild the trust in yourself and your body and reacquaint yourself with your inner wisdom.
I bring over 30 years of nutrition therapy and counseling practice experience. I am a Registered and Certified Dietitian Nutritionist, Certified Diabetes Educator and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. I was trained and certified by the Original Intuitive Eating Pros and I’m the author of four books including the recent, Enjoying Food Peace: Recipes and Intuitive Eating Wisdom to Nourish Your Body and Mind.
I struggled with my own weight, too!
I even had my own weight struggle in 2002 after the birth of my 4th child. I was running two private practices plus was the director of a large dietetic internship program at a major medical facility in New York.
I was overwhelmed and exhausted and found myself putting on weight. When I heard myself say, “I don’t have time to exercise” I realized something had to change. I was giving the same excuse I heard many of my clients give.
So, I created a plan for myself just as I would for a client and while it worked, I realized I had fallen into a trap.
There I was, weighing, measuring and thinking about calories. In other words, I had a diet mentality. Plus, as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, I had an advantage over my clients because I had in-depth knowledge about nutrition and meal planning.
There had to be another way. A way that didn’t include deprivation and counting calories.
It was around that time that I learned about intuitive eating and had an “aha” moment.”
THIS was a way for my clients to break free of the “diet mindset” once and for all. The “diet mindset” is the idea that “I can have this, I can’t have that” that frankly, sets you up for failure.
Most my clients come to me after they’ve tried everything else and they think they’re somehow at fault. That their willpower isn’t strong enough. Sound familiar?
But that’s not the case at all. There’s nothing wrong with your willpower!
The only thing “wrong” is all the “rules” you’ve learned over the years about “bad” foods and “good” foods. This belief immediately sets you up for a power struggle in your mind.
It’s reverse psychology.
See, those stringent rules create “deprivation mind.” This is the feeling that you “can’t” have something and you avoid it for days/weeks/months but eventually, you know what happens? You can’t take it another minute and you gorge yourself on that delicious looking plate of brownies. Once the floodgates are opened, you eat as many as you can leaving you with terrible feelings of shame and guilt.
It’s a nasty cycle of deprivation and gluttony that taps into deep-rooted emotions – usually dating back to childhood.
I want to free you from the tyranny of the diet treadmill.
“I have made peace with pie. Last night I had a piece of strawberry-rhubarb pie and enjoyed it very much. I had one piece and put the rest away. It did not call my name like it used to. It’s such a good feeling! Thank you Bonnie.”
~Valerie C.
“I now have the confidence and trust in myself to eat what I want when I want without deprivation.”
~Barbara
You’ll Be Free
With my help, you’ll address those buried emotions that trigger mindless eating and you’ll make peace with food.
You were born with the ability to know when you are hungry and to recognize and stop when you are full. You just lost that over the years. It is buried deep inside you and you need someone to help you bring that back up to the surface.
I am passionate about helping chronic dieters and emotional eaters. I will help you regain the trust in yourself, to shift your mindset away from a diet mentality and to learn to listen to your internal hunger and satiety signals as your guide to eating.
I’ve helped thousands of clients make peace with food and enjoy a life of guilt-free eating and I’m here to help you too.
In my program Freedom to Eat Forever™ you’ll discover how to stop dieting and instead, take 5 POWERFUL STEPS that will free you.
Shift Your Mindset
It’s time to get the clarity you need on how you got to where you are today in your current diet mentality, where you need to go and how to get there. When you do shift your mindset and reject the diet mentality, losing weight becomes something that happens organically without all the dieting rules you have for yourself.
This step sets the foundation for the breakthroughs that are still to come. So many people brush the past under a rug, but that prevents you from making the needed mindset shifts to really succeed.
In this step, you will:
- Understand clearly your dieting history and the dieting rules that have evolved over the years so you can kick them to the curb.
- Identify self-limiting beliefs and break through the blocks.
- Learn what your current eating style is and why it’s not serving you.
- Discover the steps you will go through in order to reclaim the intuitive eater that’s buried deep within.
- Acknowledge that you have hit “diet bottom” and begin the shift to rejecting your diet mentality.
Module 1: Hitting Diet Bottom
In this module, we look at what it really means to “hit diet bottom” and acknowledge loud and clear how dieting has affected you physically, mentally and emotionally. I will help you identify the destructive eating styles you currently engage in and you will become clear on how to move away from these damaging eating styles.
Module 2: Reject the Diet Mentality
In this module, I help you get clear on your diet mindset, identify the limiting beliefs holding you back and help you rewire your thought patterns and belief systems. You begin to make the shifts needed to a healthy non-diet mindset using 3 powerful steps.
Build Your Support & Self-Care Plan
Now that you have begun your mindset shift, it’s time to set up your support system and think about self-care. While we recognize you are doing this for yourself, it is important to have a strong support network and even more important to be sure your basic needs are being met. Together, we will build that network and put self-care practices into place so you have the confidence and strength to stay true to your commitment to learning a diet free way of living.
In this step, you will:
- Build a support system with key players who can fill vital roles to enhance your success.
- Identify the areas of self-care needing your immediate attention (there are 7 areas of self-care that we explore).
- Learn to set boundaries with others that you can live by in an effort of improving your own self-care.
- Be confident when setting limits with people so you have no regrets.
Module 3: Meeting Your Basic Needs of Self-Care
In this module we will delve into the 7 key areas of self-care and develop your personalized Self-Care Plan so you are making yourself a priority in your life in order to regain the trust in your body.
Module 4: Building Your Support Network
Support is an essential ingredient on your journey. In this module, we will create your Social Support Network and you will begin to reach out to them as the need arises.
Honor Your Body
Now that you’ve shifted your mindset and improved your self-care, it’s time to honor your body in a way that you have never before. This is where the most powerful transitions happen that will finally allow you to make peace with food. We’re going to learn how to tune into your thoughts, feelings and body so you’re properly listening to your inner signals and letting them guide you in your eating. This is the key to being free from the pain of dieting and eating without guilt.
In this step, you will:
- Learn how to honor your hunger by understanding what triggers hunger and what it truly feels like.
- Discover the key to respecting your fullness so that you are no longer a member of the “clean the plate” club.
- Understand the key practices of mindful eating and how you can recapture the pleasures of eating once again.
- Learn how to cope with your emotions without turning to food.
Module 5: Honor Your Hunger
In this module you will begin to understand the biological mechanisms that turn on your desire to eat. I will help you listen for and hear the gentle sensations of hunger; you will learn how to honor those first signs of hunger as your guide to begin eating.
Module 6: Feel Your Fullness
In this module you will learn the key to respecting your fullness and how to recognize “comfortable satiety”. I’ll show you the steps to take to move away from auto-pilot eating so you no longer eat past your biological fullness signals.
Module 7: Discover the Satisfaction Factor
In this module I will show you how to experience true satisfaction in your eating experiences so you can enjoy your food without feelings of guilt. You will learn powerful mindful eating techniques that will enhance your eating pleasure.
Module 8: Cope with Your Emotions without Using Food
In this module you will discover what emotions drives your overeating and what you are truly hungry for. You will learn the 4 key steps and questions you must ask yourself in order to learn how to cope with your emotions without using food. You will also learn 3 ways to meet your needs without food.
Transform Your Inner Voice
A key part of transforming your relationship with food is making peace with your “trigger” foods so you are no longer afraid to eat them, or have them in your home.
In this step, you will:
- Learn to give yourself unconditional permission to eat what you love without the worry of overeating.
- Discover how to replace the destructive dieting voices with powerful ally voices.
- Learn to reframe negative self-talk into positive self-talk and use these new voices to respect your “here and now” body.
- Identify what your natural healthy weight is so you can feel better about who you are and put an end to body worry.
Module 9: Make Peace with Food
In this module you will discover how depriving yourself of the foods you love leads to overeating and binge eating, also called “Rebound Eating”. You will learn about the many different types of rebound eating which leads to the “Seesaw Syndrome” of guilt versus deprivation. You will come to understand what it means to give yourself unconditional permission to eat as you work through the 5 Step Peace Process that will ultimately enable you to rebuild the trust in your food choices and in your body.
Module 10: Challenge the Destructive Dieting Voices
In this module you will identify the dieting voices that keep you in the world of dieting and in a diet mentality and you will become familiar with the powerful ally voices that will pave your way to becoming an intuitive eater. You will discover how these eating voices originated and how they progressed into your adulthood. You will become skilled at noticing the destructive voices and will be able to turn them into more positive voices, using those more powerful voices to reclaim the trust in yourself and your food choices.
Module 11: Turn Negative Self-Talk into Positive Self-Talk
In this module you will identify your irrational and distorted dieting thoughts and replace them with thoughts and beliefs that are more rational. You will learn how to use self-talk to fight the destructive dieting voices and how to reframe negative self-talk into positive self-talk which will lead to positive behaviors.
Module 12: Respect Your Body
In this module, you will discover why it’s important to respect your current “here and now” body while on your journey towards intuitive eating. You will learn 8 ways you can offer more respect to your body and to yourself. You will determine your natural healthy weight and become realistic in your expectations, thereby opening the door to body acceptance and being at peace with your body.
Nourish Your Body
At this point in the process, the intuitive eater that lies within you has re-awakened. You are now ready to learn how to nourish and move your body in a way that feels right for you, and only you. You will find at this point that you are choosing lighter, healthier foods not because you think you should, but because you feel better when you eat this way.
In this step, you will:
- Learn how to integrate the nutrition, exercise and health guidelines in the outside world into your inner world to achieve authentic health.
- Discover how to make informed food choices that honor your health and your body.
- Understand how mindful exercise and body movement rejuvenates you and enhances your mind-body connection.
- Learn how to incorporate “play foods” into your day without feelings of guilt.
Module 13: Mindful Exercise
In this module, you will come face-to-face with your true feelings towards exercise and you will break through any exercise barriers you have. You will learn the health benefits of exercise and being active, which reach way beyond losing weight. You will make a lifelong commitment to exercise and body movement by understanding and engaging in mindful exercise.
Module 14: Nourish Your Body
In this module, you will release the food worry that has embattled you for years. You will explore the nutrition recommendations from the external world and decide what to integrate into your internal world to ultimately achieve authentic health. You will take charge of your nutrition decisions to support a healthy life.

“With Bonnie’s insight, I realized that I have been afraid to eat, not knowing what or how to eat if I’m not on a diet. I used to monitor everything, criticized myself and ate more to soothe my emotions. Working with Bonnie has changed that for me! I am paying attention to my inner signals. I am eating foods I enjoy in reasonable amounts. I have been given a permission that is life enhancing and with Bonnie’s expertise I’m no longer afraid to eat. ”

This Step-by-Step Guided Program will give you the tools to break free of diet mentality and change your relationship with food.
Imagine, no more diets. Ever.
If you commit to the process and do the work, you’ll change your entire relationship with food.
You won’t count calories or eat mindlessly when bored, stressed or because others are eating.
Instead, you’ll eat what you want when you’re hungry.
Unlike all of those diet programs you’ve tried, this works. In fact, shifting your mindset is the only thing that works.
My approach gets down to the core of WHY you gained weight in the first place and why all those diets have failed you. That’s right! The diets are what have failed, not YOU. Those diets gave you another set of rules to follow which was just a band-aid on the problem.
With this approach, you’ll re-discover how to trust your body and make lasting lifestyle changes that you can live with forever!
Success comes from taking ACTION. Making a commitment, believing in yourself and sticking through it, as long as it takes…that’s success. I’ll be with you along the way, offering you suggestions and motivation.

And I participate actively in the group as well so you get ongoing feedback and support.
“Before working with Bonnie, I was struggling with continuing my intuitive eating practice in social situations, and had fallen a bit back into the diet mentality. Within a few short months, I was able to get to a place where I am more comfortable with my food choices and able to be much more present with my own desires in social situations. Now, I’m able to have dinner with friends, and some wine and not be concerned that I can’t pay enough attention to my own needs. I highly recommend working with Bonnie. She really understands the struggles that many of us have faced trying to remake our bodies by controlling them and the world around us, and can help to internalize how and why that’s an impossible approach.”
~Nicole
“At the start of this journey, I was living in diet-mode and it was stressful. I was eating according to set standards that were dictated to me. But once I started on the intuitive eating journey with Bonnie, I became my own person, guiding myself in a positive direction. I am making food decisions now with my own internal controls. I am more aware of who I am and I get to see, sense and use my internal self to guide myself. I now realize I have the ability to do this. It is invigorating! This is the best way to combine the physical and spiritual aspects of eating.”
~C.R.
Just in case you’re wondering if this will truly work for you, I ask you this:
Are you willing to consider a different way of relating to food and to yourself?
Freedom to Eat Forever™ is for you if:
- You have struggled to lose weight only to regain all the weight you lost plus more.
- You feel guilty when you eat foods you love and deem as “bad” for you.
- You’ve tried diet after diet and feel that you just don’t have the willpower, wondering why you make the same mistakes over and over again and doubt that you will ever really be able to lose the weight and keep it off.
- You are ready for a new approach
If any of this describes you, then this is EXACTLY the training you’ve been looking for.
I’ll show you how to shift away from this dieter’s mindset and learn to honor your body and trust your inner wisdom, so you can break free of dieting, enjoy food again and finally get the body you love.
Freedom to Eat Forever™ is NOT for you if:
- You want to stay in your comfort zone trying diet after diet.
- You are looking for a quick fix.
- You’re not ready to uncover the underlying emotional issues that have caused you to put on the weight and that is keeping the weight on.
Freedom to Eat Forever™ is a completely different approach from anything else you’ve tried and it requires a mental shift.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this program different from other diet programs?
Easy. This is NOT A DIET. I don’t tell you what to eat, when to eat or how much to eat. This is a food behavior therapy program. We delve into your mindset and your physiology and how it relates to your eating. Nutrition and exercise comes later on in the program.
If I were to start this program telling you what to eat, how much to eat and when to eat, those would be more diet rules. It would backfire! You’d follow the rules for a short time, just like you would on all the other diets you followed, and then at some point, there would be some trigger (probably emotional) and you’d “break the rules”.
So, as you can see, this is WAY different than all those other diet programs.
I’m so tired of false promises. Will this really work?
No false promises here. In fact, the only promise I can make you is that if you don’t finally shift your mindset and learn to commit to a diet-free way of life, you will likely find yourself on endless diets constantly “evaluating” your next step.
The reason my approach works is because I am NOT promising miracles. My approach gets down to the core of WHY you gained weight in the first place and why all those diets have failed you. That’s right! The diets are what have failed, not YOU. Those diets gave you another set of rules to follow which was just a band-aide on the problem instead of teaching you to trust your body and to make lasting lifestyle changes that you can live with forever!
Success comes from taking ACTION. Making a commitment, believing in yourself and sticking through it, as long as it takes…that’s success.
What happens after you become free to eat forever?
- You no longer feel controlled by food.
- You can eat what you want without feeling guilt or going on a “binge.”
- You feel good about yourself and enjoy spending time with others without obsessing about food.
- You have more energy to see friends and enjoy life. You might even take up a new hobby!
