Hello! My name is Kristi Raile and I am currently a stay at home mom to a very active 5 year old son! I have been struggling with autoimmune diseases for more than 15 years. Chronic pain and osteoporosis have developed in the last 5 years. I struggle with having an unhealthy relationship with food, most often using food for momentary happiness. Eating my feelings leads to disappointment in myself and negative self talk. I have Celiac disease and often found I was feeling sorry for myself which led to more emotional eating. An Ugly and endless cycle filled with shame for not being “stronger” and more in control of my habits. I have tried a little bit of everything when it comes to “dieting” but mostly calorie counting and cutting out entire food groups. Many days I didn’t feel good enough to eat much of anything and if I stopped following a diet, even one day, I just gave up altogether. I got to the point that if I even had one bite of something that was not in my diet plan, I used it as an excuse to just blow the whole day, and many times, the diet entirely.
