Remember, you’re not on autopilot. You have the ability to pause, breathe, and decide what you truly want - not just what’s convenient or impulsive. Each food choice is an opportunity to align with your goals and values.

Before your next meal or snack, take 10 seconds to pause. Ask yourself:
-what does my body truly need right now?
-how do I want to feel after eating?

Now drop an emoji in the chat that describes how you want to feel after that meal?
