In this episode, Sandra speaks with Amy, who opens up about her powerful transformation from food obsession and binge eating to confidence and control. Once consumed by calorie counting and guilt, Amy shares how therapy and the Slimpod programme helped her rebuild her relationship with food, ditch the scales, and find joy in eating again—guilt-free. Most importantly, she’s now showing her children what a healthy, positive relationship with food looks like.
We discuss:
Food noise and mental obsession: How constant calorie counting and guilt took over Amy’s life.

Life before Slimpod: From scale addiction and binge eating to diet pills and emotional burnout.

Therapy + Slimpod: How this combination helped Amy heal her eating habits and self-worth.

Letting go of the scales: Learning to measure success through confidence, not weight.

Being a role model: How Amy’s new approach to food is creating a healthier legacy for her kids.

Amy’s top tip: “Don’t set expectations. Go in open-minded and enjoy the journey—it’s like learning to drive; once it clicks, it’s life-changing.”
