Intuitive Eating Principle 1 – Reject the Diet Mentality

Intuitive Eating Principle 1 – Reject the Diet Mentality

What it means:

“Throw out the diet books and magazine articles that offer you the false hope of losing weight quickly, easily, and permanently. Get angry at diet culture that promotes weight loss and the lies that have led you to feel as if you were a failure every time a new diet stopped working and you gained back all of the weight. If you allow even one small hope to linger that a new and better diet or food plan might be lurking around the corner, it will prevent you from being free to rediscover Intuitive Eating.”

How to apply it:

Start by freeing yourself of any blame.
You didn’t fail. Diet culture has failed you.
There’s no quick fix. Start speaking kindly to yourself and to your body.

Over the last year I got freakin’ ANGRY at diet culture.

I spent so many years tracking macros, weighing myself constantly, and becoming overly obsessed about how my body looked.

My mental state was at jeopardy because of this.

AND I was frustrated with HOW I was coaching women as well.

I had to make a change.

I dove into living intuitively and I realized how much freedom I had. Some of my habits started shifting and I realized I was happier AND healthier.

This really affected my coaching too.
I wasn’t going to promote living a restrictive lifestyle.

I want to help women connect with themselves on a deeper level so they could LOVE themselves, TRUST themselves, and ultimately live happily.
