Love How You Eat

I've been making a mistake with "exception eats" and this episode explains why they can be problematic and how to change things. If you still find yourself having a lot of desire for certain foods, being in good/bad all-or-nothing diet mentality, and never really getting anywhere with feeling better in your body, this episode is for you!

I can't tell you the amount of people that tell me that have a sweet tooth which invariably means they eat sugar in an erratic, uncontrolled way when they're not hungry. This episode explains how your identity, and the way you think about yourself, matters. The things you tell yourself, no matter how innocuous, are insidious and will create the outcomes of your life (and body). And if you don’t think consciously, you’ll be relying on the primal part of the brain that doesn’t know about you and how you feel and what makes you truly feel your best emotionally. That part of your brain will always prioritise sugar, and the more you obey it and reward it the more it’s going to drive you towards it. It’s time to break free of that frustrating cycle by thinking on purpose and creating an identity that actually serves you. NEXT INTAKE JANUARY 2027! Get your spot! lovehowyoueat.com

I really encourage all listeners of this podcast to listen to this episode because I see this topic as one of the biggest obstacles to the peace and confidence we want to feel in our bodies. If you've lost weight and regained it and things feel complicated, please listen to see how your residual diet mentality and thoughts about food are causing that outcome. I also tell you what's going to help you break free of this tiring and frustrating cycle for good. You so deserve this freedom. lovehowyoueat.com

Whether you vape or not, please listen to this episode to help you change the eating and drinking behaviours that are keeping you from feeling your best. Quitting vaping has really shown me what it takes to create the changes we might want for ourselves and also revealed what doesn't work. lovehowyoueat.com

If you're following the Love How You Eat principles consistently and not getting the results you want, I encourage you to get curious about whether you're telling yourself an unhelpful story about what counts as empowered eating. I give a personal example of a work birthday cake and eating tiramisu at Jamie Oliver's house (you read that right!) to explain exactly what I mean. Get to know me: lovehowyoueat.com

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

It's easy to get lost in food rules and overthinking what's right or wrong for weight loss. This episode connects you back with the tool that helped me create the results that positively transformed not only my body but how I thought and felt about food. WORK WITH ME IN SEPT WITH 1:1 COACHING! > Here's the hunger scale breakdown: 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.

Your body is asking for nourishment. -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 — Satisfied Your hunger has gone. You feel comfortable, nourished. You could easily move on with your day. +4 — Enough You feel satisfied and aware that you have eaten.

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. ❤️

Here's a bonus episode where I explain how you can become more intuitive and spontaneous with exception eats/drinks and how you know the difference between what feels empowered versus disempowered. I also share a new visual/analogy to help you stop overeating at mealtimes. I find it super helpful! Enjoy! Work with me in September: lovehowyoueat.com

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.
