Concerned you might gain weight with intuitive eating?â
â
I completely understand how this can be a fear as you embark on your ie journey. It was for me too. â
â
But intuitive eating is not a diet. Any program or lifestyle that is encouraging some form of manipulation of your food intake/habits to result in weight loss is a diet. â
â
Everyone has a healthy weight and guess what? It is not always found within the parameters of the BMI chart that your doc, dietician, holistic nutritionist, or personal trainer is suggesting you be within. Your healthy weight is a unique weight range (because weight fluctuations are 100% natural) that is easily maintained when you listen and respond to your bodyâs signals of hunger, fullness and satiety. â
â
That weight could be lower, the same or higher than where you are at right now. â
â
And friend, I totally understand if that brings up feelings of despair. You have been told your whole life that if you just exercise a bit more, eat a little less, reduce your carb intake, and eat a few more veggies that you will successfully lose weight and keep it off. â
â
There is a ton of research to prove that there isnât one single diet (or healthy lifestyle) that can guarantee weight loss and keep it off for 5 years or more. â
â
So, while I canât guarantee weight loss or gain with intuitive eating, what I can ensure is that it can free you from years of frustration and disappointment and allow you to embrace wellness without obsession. â
â
