#226: Just Letting Yourself Eat Whatever You Want Is Harming You, Not Helping You, And Here's Why
So you ditched dieting, stopped tracking and decided to start doing intuitive eating, and therefore you gave yourself permission to eat whatever you want. And now it feels a bit chaotic, unstructured, and you find yourself wondering, “Am I doing this right?” as you watch the number on the scale go up, and your labs get worse. If intuitive eating has gotten twisted into grabbing whatever’s in front of you, finishing food just because it’s there, or telling yourself “I’m allowed to” without ever actually checking in with your body…this episode is your wake-up call. Because that’s not intuitive eating. It’s IMPULSIVE eating. (oops…that’s ok we’re going to fix it today!) If you’ve been wondering why intuitive eating hasn’t fully “clicked” yet, this episode will show you exactly what’s missing, and what it actually takes to become someone who lives this work instead of just understanding the gist of it. Episode Highlights -The critical difference between permission and chaos -Why “eat whatever, whenever” is missing key components -The skill set most people skip over that’s damaging your health -What REAL intuitive eating looks like in everyday life Today’s Wellness Woo is longevity medicine.
