The thing with intuitive eating is it’s like doing mental math 📝 Let me explain.
If I were to ask you what’s 5x5, would you have to have to plug that into your calculator to know it’s 25? 🤔
👉🏼 If I had to guess, you’ve long had that memorized. But you’ve also had probably 20+ years experience with basic math functions, right? 😉
Or if I said “put your hair in a ponytail!” How many seconds would that take you?🤔 At this point in your life, definitely less than 10, right? It’s automatic ⏱
Now think back to yourself at 8 years old, spending 10 minutes brushing your hair back, struggling to keep it smooth, get the scrunchie on your fingertips...that was exhausting 🥴
So here’s my point....once upon a time, doing math and putting your hair in a ponytail was something new to you.
👉🏼 And with any new skill, we have to give you time to practice it to perfect your craft. Same goes with nutrition 🤓 ESPECIALLY intuitive eating.
If you’ve spent little to no time in the last 25 years learning how much protein is in a chicken breast or how much fat is in an avocado 🥑 ...those answers aren’t just stored in your mental calculator yet 😅
📲 So keeping a virtual food diary, giving yourself time to learn what’s in the food you eat and what portion sizes look like, is like learning how to do those basic math on paper 📐📝
A lot of the clients I work with have intuitive eating as their overall goal long term 🥳
It’s appealing, right? 😍 No tracking, no logging, having the body you want, but all because you have the tools and you KNOW how to use them 👏🏼
👉🏼 So to get to where intuitive eating is as easy as slinging your hair in a ponytail, we have to practice the basics ❤️ (which is where I come in 🙋🏼♀️ and teach you the way to make this your reality 🙏🏼 Reach out to me for more info to get started 💌)
👱🏼♀️ Do you remember the first time you learned how to do your hair? I used to use HAIR GEL (🤯) to slick my hair down and then into a low ponytail 🤣
