Love How You Eat

If you are feeling stuck or not getting the results you think you deserve, I encourage you to listen to this episode. You might be stuck in diet mentality more than you think and it'll be tripping you up without you really realising it, leading to an under-eating (restricting) and over-eating cycle (self-abandonment) that means you don't actually get anywhere. You deserve so much better than that. lovehowyoueat.com

The evenings are a problem time for eating for so many women. This episode will help you understand why this might be the case for you, why it's important to you to change this habit, and gives you tips for navigating those persistent urges successfully. Addressing this habit will change your experience of food and eating, as well as make a huge difference to your results. Don't forget that you deserve to feel the best you possibly can! Here's the hunger scale I mentioned: The Hunger Scale The hunger scale helps you reconnect with your body's natural cues. The goal is not to be perfect. The goal is to become aware. Use it to notice: When your body is asking for food When you've had enough When you're eating for reasons other than hunger -10 — Extremely Hungry You feel desperate for food. You may feel shaky, lightheaded, irritable or unable to focus. At this point, your body is asking for food urgently and it can be much harder to make calm, intentional choices. -8 — Very Hungry Strong hunger signals are present. You are very aware you need food and are thinking about eating frequently. Hunger feels overpowering and like an emergency. -6 — Hungry You feel clear physical hunger. Where is food now? I must get food. -4 — Gently Hungry You can feel hunger building. You feel ready for food but you’re calm and able to choose what you want to eat. This is a great place to begin eating. -2 — Slightly Hungry You are starting to notice hunger cues. You could eat now, or wait a little while. 0 — Neutral You feel neither hungry nor full. Your body feels settled. +2/3 — Satisfied Your physical hunger has gone. You feel comfortable in your clothes, nourished and energised. You could easily move on with your day with ENERGY. This is the place we’re aiming to stop. +4 — Full You feel satisfied and aware that you have eaten. You are quite comfortable, but you may notice food sitting in your stomach and you feel less energised to do things. +6 — Quite Full You feel heavier. You may feel less energised or comfortable and want to lean back, exhale and stay seated! +8 — Very Full You feel uncomfortable. You have eaten beyond what your body needed. +10 — Overfull You feel stuffed. Your body feels uncomfortable and you may regret continuing to eat. How To Use The Hunger Scale Before eating, ask: "Am I physically hungry?" During your meal, slow down and check in: "Has my hunger gone?" The aim is: Start eating around -4 Stop eating around +2/3 (if you get to +4 it's OK -- stay conscious!) Remember: You do not need to eat until you feel full. You need to eat until you feel satisfied. Hunger is not something to fear. Your body is designed to guide you and more food is always coming. The more you listen, the more you rebuild trust with yourself. ❤️

This episode explores why you have the habit of eating when you're not hungry and the things you believe which lead you to eat without consideration for your body. It is essential to understand why you might be doing this so that you can meaningfully address the limiting thoughts and beliefs which drive it. When you put food in its rightful place, you put yourself back in the spotlight, ready to live the most thriving and vital life you can. I help my clients eat for physical hunger.

I hear women and clients give themselves such a hard time for how they look, what they weigh, and how they're eating, which ironically drives them to not do some of the things that could actually make all of these outcomes better for them. In this episode, I talk about sleep, water, and most importantly, walking, and why learning how to stop negotiating on whether you prioritise them or not, is the key to feeling the best you possibly can. And how if you compromise on these three things, you are saying you don't deserve to feel better -- but of course you do. This episode might be more important than you think for changing the outcomes that are currently frustrating you.

If you identify as a people-pleaser or find yourself continuing to face the same arguments or dissatisfaction in your relationships, this episode will help identify what might be going on and if you're ready to break free of any limiting behaviours that no longer serve you. I cover the difference between loyalty and toxic loyalty, and how when we prioritise the emotional state of others over our own we sacrifice living our most authentic and fulfilling lives. It's about asking what you'd like to be different in an ideal world, how you'd like to feel on a daily basis, and what it would take to actualise it into reality.

If you find yourself not achieving the things you think you want for yourself or being inconsistent with what you're meant to be doing, it might be that you're identifying with the wrong goal. This episode explains why it's so important to connect with the key feelings you want to feel in your life, and understand how the external goals you have will (or won't) create those feelings on a genuine level. By understanding how each decision and choice you face every day will take you closer or further away from your desired feelings (rather than tying them to the unhelpful pressures of external outcomes like weight, salary, houses and holidays), you can start to see everything as an opportunity that has immediate impact on your day-to-day life experience which will inevitably have a cumulative impact. Identifying your feelings goals will help you lead a more authentic life that lights you up from the inside out, rather than following presumed ideas of what's best for you. Journal Prompts: - identify 2-3 feelings goals - why are these feelings important to you? what will they mean about you? how do you know when you're feeling that way? - what do you do currently that helps you feel this way? - what do you do currently that detracts from these feelings? - what are your top 2 extrinsic goals right now? will achieving those goals create these feelings on a true and deep level for you? why or why not? - what are your takeaways from this exercise?
