@rameynutrition: Why do we lie to eating disorder providers? Curious about your experiences…💕 Be honest. Have you ever sat across from a therapist, dietitian, or doctor and edited the truth? Minimized the binge. Softened the restriction. Left out the real fear. Said “I’m fine” when you weren’t? A lot of people do it. And it’s usually not because they’re “in denial” or “not ready.” It’s often because they’ve learned that the full truth gets shut down, dismissed, or turned into something that doesn’t match how it actually feels inside their body and brain. When a provider says things like “fat isn’t a feeling,” they’re not just correcting language — they’re often invalidating the exact signal the patient is using to try to communicate something deeper. That kind of dismissal trains people to stop telling the whole story. Over time, the patient learns to give the version of the truth that keeps the appointment moving instead of the version that might actually help. That’s why I did the rant episode “Fat IS a Feeling” (Episode 23 of The Ramey Nutrition Live Experience). I called out how low-education providers still dismiss that statement and how harmful it is. If you’ve ever been told your experience isn’t real or valid, this one will hit.

What made you hold back with a provider? What would have made it safe to tell the real story? You already have the answers. The work is learning which people and spaces actually let you say them out loud.
