#139: The 3 Things I Wish I Could Go Back and Tell You Before You Started Intuitive Eating
Manage episode 430321259 series 3291917
What I would tell you in the very beginning so that you can implement intuitive eating the right way, without getting lost, stuck or way off base! This episode goes hand-in-hand with the next episode, #140: How to Refocus If You Feel Lost or Stuck With Intuitive Eating. You can think of these episodes like sisters or besties, so make sure you listen to that one next!
Looking back, I wish someone would have told me a few things when I was first getting into intuitive eating and healing my own relationship with food. Even as a dietitian, there were things I didn’t know and things I didn’t realize in the very beginning.
In this episode, we’ll dig into Principle 3 of intuitive eating, which is called “Make Peace With Food,” you’re going to see that having peace with food doesn’t just mean eating whatever the heck you want, whenever you want it.
If you’ve been trying to figure out how you can ditch dieting, embrace intuitive eating, and make peace with food, today’s episode is exactly what you need to hear! I’m going to share the mindset shift that completely changed how I approach my eating, and it is something that has given tons of my clients their own “ah-ha” moments as well.
Key Takeaways
1. Neutralizing your judgments about food: You can’t truly have peace with food if you’re still labeling it as good/bad or healthy/unhealthy
2. Intuitive eating vs impulsive eating: Eating “whatever you want, whenever you want” isn’t going to get you where you want to be.
3. Peace with food means saying yes AND no to food: It’s equally as important to let yourself eat what you desire, as well as being able to say no to food when you’re not hungry or it doesn’t meet your body’s needs.
