If you have decided that diets are not right for you then Fork the Food Rules is right for you (yes, even if you often still wonder, is there still one more diet out that will be 'the one'). If you have an active eating disorder and rely on a meal plan you are not ready for Fork the Food Rules just yet... but you will be, you're doing it!
Then I promise that you will be in good company! This is the space for those that are struggling to accept their body but want to put the work into acceptance instead of always trying to change it. Body acceptance is ongoing work and does not happen over night, but it can be a more successful and powerful journey when traveled with others.
This will be the only enrollment in 2020, but we will open enrollment again sometime in the first part of 2021.
