The SociEATy 1:1 Coaching ➡️ https://nofoodrules.co/1_1coaching Questions Covered on this call 12:22 - I'm hoping intuitive eating can give me more mental space. But isn't thinking about whether you're hungry or not, full or not take up a lot of mental space as well? Thank you! 14:55 - How do I stop eating out of boredom? 21:29 - I recently hurt my hip. I'm normally very active. Now I can hardly walk. I'm really struggling with the idea of restricting as I am soo sedentary! How do I navigate through this? Thanks so much! 25:18 - Recently I’ve been having trouble adjusting my meals around some meetings and work related plans. For example, yesterday I had an earlier than normal meeting, and as a consequence had to have my breakfast earlier than usual despite not being super hungry. My question is, I guess, related to practical hunger and arranging meal times according to meetings and not the other way around, because it's almost impossible to schedule appointments and meetings around when I think I'm going to have my meals! But it’s very difficult for me to have a meal without being ravenous. I also noticed that it’s more difficult to listen to my fullness cues while eating a meal without having been super hungry before starting it. After finishing my "portion", I don't know whether I'm full or not. On the other hand, being unable to sense fullness does not happen if I had begun the meal being super hungry. (For context): I have a history of restrictive eating, no binging, purging, etc. I have been prescribed several meal plans with specific portions, but the only meal I've been weighing/tracking is breakfast because it's the meal after which it's the most difficult for me to know whether I'm full or not. The other meals - I just weigh the minimum portion I should be having, and if I want more, I just add more to my plate. 32:32 - My husband and I are ready to try for our next baby, but I'm wondering if we should wait and let intuitive eating "solidify" more for me first. I've only been in the Socieaty for a few weeks (although I've worked on intuitive eating before that so I'm not totally fresh.) Basically, I'm wondering if there is any legitimacy in being nervous that being pregnant, not feeling great, and getting bigger and bigger will stop me from making progress with intuitive eating. And if it is risky because I'm so new at it, will waiting some more time make me more like to be able to eat intuitively while pregnant? 37:42 - Is it possible to track macros AND eat intuitively? 40:03 - What are some good steps to bringing binge foods into the house without getting all the things and proceeding to EAT all the things??? 41:54 - My question is about the term soul nourishing and body nourishing. I understand what you classify under each but are there any other ways all these foods can be described. Personally I feel like this terms can still have assumptions/judgments . I mean when I’m craving fruit that actually would be soul nourishing to me. Not trying to argue, just trying to understand as I want to raise my little son as an IE and would like some ideas or insight of other ways we can call food. Can food just be food but serve different functions? Just trying to understand and get some ideas. 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.000 We would just love to Maria and I'm going to go ahead and hit record before I forget alright, we just love to welcome you. 00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:15.000 You're gonna absolutely love this community. And we're just here to support you are gonna get all through a lot today, lots of different topics have come up the way that these sessions run. 00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:30.000 If you are new, we have a form that is in the coaching tab inside of the membership, and you can submit questions every day and anytime throughout the week, and then each one's day. 00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:42.000 I take a look at them, we answer as many as we can in the next about 45 min together, and if your question isn't answered, you can go back after this call submitted again, and it'll be at the top. 00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:43.000 We go in order, and we get through as many as we can. 00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:50.000 Hello, okay. So you have done. This is my first call. Happy to be here. 00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:53.000 We're happy to have you here I'm Rita. 00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:54.000 We have a seasoned member here. I love it, and Danielle says, Hello, Don! 00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:10.000 Okay, guys, we'll go ahead and get into it. So the first thing that we do on these calls is, we always do a little bit of a reflection. 00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:13.000 We're gonna let Desiree, and we're gonna alien. 00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:14.000 And I want you to think of what I call your 2 W. 00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:30.000 To do this every single week at the beginning of each call, and this is just a really good practice to start to get into so I want you to think about the past week we're just going to go for the past week and think about one thing that has gone well, in. 00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:31.000 Your week a lot of times we are thinking about eating. So it can be related to eating. 00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:33.000 But sometimes it's not, and I want you to try to think about the thing that sticks out to you. 00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:44.000 But sometimes it's not, and I want you to try to think about the thing that sticks out to you. 00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:49.000 The most like, I said. We're all here to talk about intuitive eating a lot of times. 00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:52.000 It is going to be that whether you I feel like I noticed a hunger queue. 00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:58.000 I feel like I let myself eat something without guilt. I honored my fullness, whatever it might be, but it also could be. 00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:16.000 You know what I just made it through the week. I always say that because we're not gonna have necessarily groundbreaking wins every single week, but we can't think about last week, and think about what is one thing that went well, so go ahead and share your win in the chat and the reason we do 00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:18.000 this is to make sure that we are recognizing our progress along the way, especially if you are new. 00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:30.000 It feels like you're standing at the bottom of a mountain, and you're just looking at the top of like I need to become an intuitive eater right? 00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:39.000 But how do I get there? We do that by noticing these baby steps and taking these baby steps, because that is how we chunk it down. 00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:45.000 That is how we work in the society. We work in a very unique structured approach. 00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:52.000 A lot of people don't have any structure. I didn't, through their intuition eating journey, and it's what makes it feel so, Dane, confusing. 00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:59.000 And it's actually what prevents us from making progress because we're trying to work on so many things at once. 00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:00.000 But our energy is spread so widely we're not actually going anywhere. 00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:09.000 Okay, so, I want you guys to think about that win. I'll go ahead and read some of them. 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:16.000 And what we recognize our win when we recognize those baby steps we want to make more of them right? 00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:21.000 And so, as you're thinking of this win, you can ask yourself, okay. 00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:27.000 That felt good. This week. I want to bring that into next week. 00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:28.000 The more that you do that. Think about it. Week after week you can start to kind of build on that. 00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:35.000 Okay, and that is how we start to make that progress. Whether it's wow. 00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:39.000 I had a sandwich for lunch, and that kept me full throughout the afternoon. 00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:40.000 I didn't feel as snacky, so I was able to cut, you know, concentrate on work that felt really good. 00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:51.000 Then, okay, I want to do more of that next week. So what's another sandwich that I can have for lunch? 00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:53.000 Right. That's the mindset that we want to be thinking here. And then. 00:03:53.000 --> 00:04:00.000 Now we're going to flip it. I'll go ahead and read some of your guys in a second, so we can get our brains noodle in. 00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:08.000 But we're going to flip it, and I want you to think about something that didn't go so well this past week, and we don't do this to get down on ourself. 00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:15.000 If you are up. Seasoned member. You know this. We do this to recognize where we can make improvements for next week, and everyone is likely gonna have something that didn't feel so good. 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:32.000 Something that we can improve upon, and one of the most important things with this is that I want you to think about what is just the thing that sticks out to me. 00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:33.000 The most there might be a laundry list of things in the past week that didn't feel good right? 00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:42.000 And that's okay. But if we try to solve all these problems, we're probably gonna get super overwhelmed. 00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:50.000 We're probably gonna end up just doing nothing. So thinking about what is just the one thing that stuck out to me. 00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:58.000 The most that I could work on for next week. Okay, and that might be, maybe it's like I got to the end of the day, and I just felt so full. 00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:01.000 Maybe it's I got to dinner, and I was ravenous. 00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:02.000 So next week I want to work on actually planning to eat more during the day. 00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:13.000 Maybe it is I stayed up super late, and I was just so tired, and that just made me be very reactive. 00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:20.000 I felt like I was eating emotionally, and with this we wanna make sure that we are picking a very concrete thing to work on rather than saying, I'm going to be more mindful at my lunches. 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:24.000 I want you to think about. What am I gonna do like? 00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:28.000 What is the actual thing that I'm going to work on? 00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:29.000 Am I going to pause in the middle of my meal? 00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:42.000 Am I going to turn off my phone? Am I going to turn off my phone? 00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:44.000 What is the action that you're going to try to get as concrete? 00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:45.000 Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and read some of yours. 00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:48.000 I love the chatter that we have in the chat box. 00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:54.000 I honored my sweet cravings while seeing mindful, and in the moment such a win Bailey says, my husband started a diet and I've been able to stick to intuitive eating without feeling pulled to join him. 00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:06.000 I love this, and I love this topic in general because a lot of members have this right, and it doesn't necessarily mean that it's wrong or bad. 00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:13.000 Everyone has body autonomy. They can do whatever they want. 00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:17.000 And we have a really really great resource in one of the start here, videos. 00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:23.000 I believe it's start here. Video 2, where we have a Pdf that you can send your spouse partner, friend, whoever it is in your life. 00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:39.000 It really just explains. It's literally written from me to them how they can support you and you know what it doesn't include necessarily trying to change their mind because when we tell people that they're wrong or we don't agree they just get combative. 00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:45.000 So in this instance, I think that just keeping it neutral, if this is something that anyone is struggling with and saying, you know what again you have autonomy to do this, but we can also. 00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:57.000 Supporting me would also mean, maybe, like not talking about it, or not pushing it on me, just having that conversation. 00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:01.000 Bailey. I love bet you that you guys have that openness where it doesn't feel triggering to you. 00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:08.000 Charlene says I didn't have a cheeseburger when I was at Culver's, only because I didn't want one. 00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:18.000 My body wanted to sale instead. So I have that Desiree says I was camping over the weekend and realized Sors are more satisfying in the morning. 00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:21.000 In the evening I'm full from dinner, and didn't enjoy as much. 00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:26.000 Can we like? Say, heck! Yes, to this, sometimes I feel like dessert. 00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.000 Is such an evening thing. Sometimes after I had a delicious dinner, I physically don't have room for it right. 00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:32.000 Cheers to the morning or the afternoon desserts. 00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:48.000 I also saw something on Instagram today. That was a small, but you, instead of grand crackers using oreo cookie free idea, give to Shrine. 00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:52.000 Andrea says I, listen to the gut health workshop and implemented some of the suggestions. 00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:53.000 Love that one guys we have so many great workshops. 00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:56.000 In the society. Go to the Resource library Tab. You can filter by workshops. 00:07:56.000 --> 00:08:04.000 We have tons, Maria says. Listen to my phone. And didn't eat the candy on the counter because I was full. 00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:09.000 I actually put it down and walked away. Danielle asked a late evening swim. 00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:12.000 I enjoyed a big cup of hot chocolate with my son. 00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:16.000 Oh, my! Gosh! What memories! Maria! Says I, over ate at a yummy lunch. 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:23.000 I should have packed stuff to go home, but I kept eating, past fullness because it was dice food, and I don't get it often. 00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:25.000 I think that is a really great reflection. You understood why this happened so implementing strategies? 00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:34.000 Okay. Next time you know what I could pack some stuff up and bring it home. 00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:41.000 Julia says, eating satisfying food during the day and making sure I had a fulfilling day it's not just about the food which that brings me to one of my talent points which I'll get into after this one. 00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:44.000 We have so many, so many great ones, we won't be able to get through them all. 00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:55.000 Having things fill you up like a quality night's sleep. Absolutely love this. 00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:57.000 So I don't feel the need to cope with food. 00:08:57.000 --> 00:08:59.000 I love this and that, Saids Segways to a topic that I wanted to talk about today. 00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:13.000 Sometimes at the beginning of these calls, after we do this reflection, I just like to give anything that I feel like, is just kind of a little tip, or just a little tidbit before we get into the. 00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:30.000 And I had thought about this this morning as I was scrolling through my Instagram feed, and I noticed a account come up that was, it's like a Midwest account, kind of like poking fun at people from the Midwest. 00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:35.000 I am from the Midwest, and I just think it's hilarious, and it was like the Midwest, like food pyramid. 00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.000 It's like Scotch ruse like potatoes. I don't know. 00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:42.000 It's very like Midwesty foods, and I was thinking about it. 00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:47.000 I hit the the heart button the the like, whatever you want to call it. 00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:54.000 And I realized something I was like it breaks me so much joy to see also non intuitive eating related content in my feed. 00:09:54.000 --> 00:10:12.000 So that was just something that I wanted to share with you guys today of a make sure that your social media feed is diversified in when we typically think of diversifying our social media feed a lot of times we think of different bodies. 00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:17.000 Right diversifying in that way which, yes, is super super important. 00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:23.000 But it's also important to diversify interactions of the types of content that you are consuming. 00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:33.000 I don't want intuitive eating to become an obsession. I don't want. 00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:38.000 Meaning to become taking over your life because there was the reality. 00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:39.000 Is, it should be? 00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:40.000 You will. 00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:45.000 A! 00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:46.000 So we want to make sure that we're bringing in other hobbies that we have other accounts. 00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:51.000 Dog, actually. 00:10:51.000 --> 00:11:21.000 Accounts that just make you laugh and fill you up. So today, I think everyone could just take a second to ask yourself. 00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:28.000 Any of those accounts, and if you do, if. 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:34.000 On the mind. I would highly highly recommend going to that, making an intelligent to go to that Instagram account. 00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:44.000 And liking a few things, watching their stories, because the way. 00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:47.000 The. 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:56.000 If we don't actively engage with those. 00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:59.000 See them as often. So if you want to see them. 00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:05.000 Seeking them out, and engaging with those accounts is, gonna be super important. 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:08.000 So just a little something for for everyone to give a little bit of a try today. 00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:09.000 Love that are not intuitive. 00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:22.000 Related. Please feel free to share in the Facebook group. I would love to see. And I just think it's a really. 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:37.000 Good reminder for us all, just to kind of get some different different ideas okay, we're gonna go ahead and answer our questions here to do. 00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:53.000 I'm going to go ahead and pop these up. So we have. If you are on the live call, we have a little bit of a A. 00:12:53.000 --> 00:12:56.000 Whether you're hungry or not, you're full or not. 00:12:56.000 --> 00:13:01.000 Taking up a lot of mental space as well. Valid question, and I. 00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:06.000 Like. I hear this a lot from people who are newer to intuitive eating, and the reality. 00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:07.000 Years. 00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:11.000 Yes, let me answer those first. Yes, it is going to give you a ton of mental space back, but not necessarily right away. 00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:21.000 Okay, a lot of times with intuitive meaning. We want instant gratification. 00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:29.000 Right, and I think that kind of stems from our expectation of diets, right diets tend to quote-unquote work. 00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:32.000 Pretty soon cause a lot of times. They are very. 00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:33.000 Address. 00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:41.000 Right, or we feel like we're doing something. We see a change, whether it's in the way that we're eating, whether it's in our bodies right? 00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:42.000 We tend to see, change right away. Intuitive eating is much more of a it's a marathon, it's not a sprint. So with that. 00:13:42.000 --> 00:14:06.000 Yes. 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:07.000 So, if? 00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:13.000 You are newer to this process. It is going to take that upfront effort. 00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:20.000 I always use the analogy of I want you to pretend, like you've been going down a trail or a path in the woods right? 00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:21.000 You've been going on this. 00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:29.000 Path for so long, in order for us to carve a new path, a new way of thinking, a new way of living. 00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:30.000 Going to take conscious effort to. 00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:31.000 To clear the twig. 00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:32.000 Leaves all the things that's going to take upfront work. 00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:33.000 Once you do that, and the more that you've traveled that new path, it's going to become so much easier. 00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:34.000 So that mental space you're going to get back. And at the same time the old path. 00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:35.000 You're not taking it as much. So the leads. 00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:36.000 The twigs. All the stuff are kind of like building up over there. 00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:37.000 So it is work right? It is so. Yes, you are going to gain that mental space back. 00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:38.000 But it is going to take some conscious thought in the beginning to start to understand the hunger, the fullness, and then it becomes more automatic as we go throughout this journey. 00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:39.000 So I hope that helps. I I'm so glad that you love that analogy. 00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:40.000 I feel like it just makes sense. And again, just because it's a lot of intuitive eating takes it takes time, like, if I could just snap my fingers and have it, you know, have us all understand the stuff I would do. 00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:46.000 In a heartbeat, you guys, but it is going to take some of that. 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:47.000 That space. So I want to make sure to do. We get back to our next question. 00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:55.000 Okay? The next question. It's a simple question, but it's a loaded one. 00:14:55.000 --> 00:15:05.000 Okay, how do I stop eating out of boredom? There's a variety of ways that we could kind of attack this question. 00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:15.000 So, whenever we're talking about this you guys know, if you bet in society I always recommend starting from a biological standpoint. 00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:20.000 Now, what I mean by this is, we always ought to make sure that our biological needs are met. 00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:41.000 This really goes back to you guys may have heard of Maslow's hierarchy of needs where we have to meet our most basic human needs in order to start working on the other things, kind of the more emotional, the more psychological things we have to have our bodily needs, met so when I cut when 00:15:41.000 --> 00:15:54.000 I see this question my first thing to make sure is that we are eating enough and what I mean by that is, we're eating not only enough, volume of food in food, enough food overall enough calories. 00:15:54.000 --> 00:16:01.000 We're also eating consistently throughout the day. And we are also getting a variety of carbs, fatten protein. 00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:05.000 Okay, that is the first thing that you are going to want to kind of check that box. 00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:07.000 Yep, I've done it. Okay. So that's the first thing. 00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:22.000 And I always say we start there, because if we jump to more of the psychological thing, so if we started with the more strategies of okay, how do I keep myself from eating, what I'm bored right, maybe it's the afternoon. 00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:29.000 I don't want to work, and I just tend to gravitate towards the pantry. 00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:35.000 I can give you all of the strategies for. Okay, let's, you know, feel the emotion of boredom. 00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:40.000 Let's, you know, ask ourselves, is this going to actually be helpful to me? 00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:44.000 Is there other things I could do to occupy myself? Is there other ways? 00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:54.000 I could take a break from work we could go down that route, but if our biological needs are not met we're still gonna have the urge to eat the food. 00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:59.000 So, always always make sure that we have that biological need met, checked. 00:16:59.000 --> 00:17:05.000 We go over that in Stage 3, through a process called biological reconditioning. 00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:11.000 I walk you through everything you need to know in Stage 3 for how to kind of be able to check that box. 00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:18.000 Stage 4, where we work on emotional eating, and where we work on breaking food, we're more of the kind of like psychological thing. 00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:26.000 But again, we want to make sure that we address that after we have the biological side of things met, it just makes things way easier. 00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:27.000 So make sure you have that box met. If you're like, okay, colleen, I am eating enough. 00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:36.000 I'm doing all the things I'm just bored, and I just want to eat. 00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:42.000 This is where in stages for Video 3 is where we talked all about emotional eating. 00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:47.000 A lot of people don't think of boredom as an emotion, but it is right. 00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:51.000 We work on this the same way that we would emotional eating. 00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:52.000 So when this comes up a, we wanna recognize it right? We want to be aware of. 00:17:52.000 --> 00:18:01.000 Okay, I I think I'm eating out of boredom right? 00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:02.000 And the way that you can do this is asking yourself, why am I eating right now? 00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:07.000 We're right. Sometimes it's I will say it is also possible to be hungry and bored at the same time. 00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:16.000 Your body may need food, but if you're saying I'm not hungry, I don't really want food. 00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:25.000 I just want to do something. This is where we want to kind of ask ourselves a what is the food gonna do for me? Right? 00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:34.000 And I mean truly, at the end of it, do sometimes, if we just want to eat a cookie for a pick me up, it can do that. 00:18:34.000 --> 00:18:35.000 But if we are eating cookies to a point where this doesn't feel good, right? 00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:44.000 Is that really benefiting us in the long run? Probably not right? 00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:46.000 We're just gonna have a tummy. We're still gonna be bored at the end of it, and we're gonna have a tummy. 00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:52.000 It's so we kind of just made our situation worse. Right? 00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:56.000 So just kind of thinking through. What am I expecting this food to do for me? 00:18:56.000 --> 00:19:01.000 And is it actually going to do that? Or is there actually going to be a different outcome? 00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:05.000 Now, if you get to the slice you're like, Okay, I'm not hungry. 00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:14.000 I don't even really want the cookies. This is where we then ask ourselves, Okay, what are some other things that I can do when this happens? 00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:23.000 Now, something that I walk you through in Stage 4 when we talk about emotional eating is creating your emotional eating toolkit. 00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:27.000 Now, I recommend doing this for each of our emotions. Okay, so I want you to have. 00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:28.000 I walk you through how to do it in the video. I want you to have a list for boredom. 00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:34.000 Okay, you also want to have a list for stressed, Anxious. 00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:43.000 Any of those things. In this list. You're gonna list about 3 to 5 different things that you can do in order to cope with that emotion. 00:19:43.000 --> 00:19:48.000 So think about some strategies, and I recommend doing this before your board. 00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:51.000 Okay, when our heads are clear, when we can think about things. 00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:58.000 It's a lot harder to do this in the moment, so just do some leg work beforehand and think about some things of what are some things. 00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:01.000 Do you like to color? Could you get outside for a walk? 00:20:01.000 --> 00:20:06.000 Maybe it is, you know, knitting, ratings. Any of those things. 00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:10.000 What are some things that I can do? And here's what I recommend. 00:20:10.000 --> 00:20:14.000 It's not saying I can't eat the cookies. 00:20:14.000 --> 00:20:23.000 What I'd recommend is picking one of those things just doing it for 5, 10 min and reassessing do I still want the food? 00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:25.000 Do I still feel like that? Is the choice that I want to make. 00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:30.000 Sometimes the answer is, Yeah, and you're going to eat the cookie, and you can eat it mindfully and honor it might be a craving, or maybe you are hungry at that point right? 00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:41.000 That reassessment phase is important. And like I said, we're not swearing it off. 00:20:41.000 --> 00:20:47.000 We're simply, we're experimenting right? We're saying, let me try this and see if this is going to fit the bill. 00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:56.000 It's this, what I'm truly needing, that lens of ciosity is so transformative for our Psyche. 00:20:56.000 --> 00:20:59.000 You guys rather than saying, I can't do this, I should do this. 00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:01.000 I'm just gonna get curious. I'm just gonna experiment. 00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:08.000 I'm just gonna see. And I always say I want you to pretend that you're just a scientist collecting data. 00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:10.000 We're doing experiments. We're collecting data. 00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:13.000 We're saying, does this feel good? Does this not do? 00:21:13.000 --> 00:21:17.000 I want to do more of this, do I not and the more that you can adapt that mindset. 00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:24.000 It is truly truly beneficial. You guys, okay? So I would recommend, you can do the things I chatted about. 00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:29.000 But I'll walk you through in detail, like I said in Stage 4, video 3, you talk all about it. 00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:30.000 There? Okay? This question says, I recently hurt my hip. I am normally very active now. 00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:42.000 I can hardly walk. I'm really struggling with the idea of restricting, as I'm so sedentary how do I navigate through this? 00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:44.000 Well, first of all, I'm so sorry that you were injured. 00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:57.000 I've seen a couple people in the Facebook group talking about this, and I don't think we have Amanda on the call to I know we have a couple members who are currently injured. 00:21:57.000 --> 00:22:00.000 Julia is another one. So you are definitely not alone. 00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:08.000 I would recommend posting in the Facebook group. If you're wanting some more support on this, your your desk, you're not alone. 00:22:08.000 --> 00:22:17.000 The first thing to remember is, you are injured. Right? Or if we want to get better, if you want to get to the place where you are very again physically active, there's nothing wrong with that. 00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:24.000 Necessarily, but in order to get back there we have to give ourselves some rest. 00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:30.000 Okay, so that's the first thing. The second thing is that our bodies are wicked, smart. 00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:34.000 You guys are bodies are wicked, smart, and our hunger and fullness levels can adjust to different levels of activity. 00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:52.000 Now this might bring up the question of Are you so physically active that it is causing you to maintain a body that is just not realistic right, that our bodies don't want to be. 00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:58.000 This could bring that up now in Stage 2. Victory. We talk a lot about movement and how to know. 00:22:58.000 --> 00:23:02.000 Are you overdoing it? Are you over exercising? 00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:05.000 Do you need to take what I call a movement break, and sometimes our bodies can decide that for us. 00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:15.000 So those are just a couple of things just kinda like mindset things to help get through that. 00:23:15.000 --> 00:23:23.000 Now I think that this I feel like goes into the question of when you are normally very active. 00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:24.000 What does the purpose of it right? Is it because it makes you feel good? 00:23:24.000 --> 00:23:35.000 It helps you distress all of these things, or is it a way to keep your body looking? A certain thing? 00:23:35.000 --> 00:23:36.000 And what's really causing anxiety is your body? 00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:37.000 Maybe not looking the same. If that's the case. Review stage 2 we talk all about body image. 00:23:37.000 --> 00:23:52.000 There stage one can be a really good one, too, because we also talk about the science, about wait. So just reviewing those could be really helpful. 00:23:52.000 --> 00:23:58.000 But thinking through. Are there other ways that I could help with this right for me? 00:23:58.000 --> 00:24:10.000 What I had been injured. I really loved a movement just d-stressed me. So think about what are some other ways that I could do it, connecting with my body felt really good. 00:24:10.000 --> 00:24:15.000 I leaned into meditation, and stretching that felt really good. 00:24:15.000 --> 00:24:21.000 Also one of the reasons that I enjoy going to the gym is I enjoy the people. 00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:25.000 I enjoy the social interaction so I went to the gym and I went in the Sauna right? 00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:38.000 So thinking about? What is the purpose of the movement? If there are other ways that you could obtain that without having the Hy activity level so more of a story, I'd review stage 2. 00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:40.000 That's gonna talk about body image as well as exercise, and that might help you understand. If you're overdoing it. 00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:47.000 But then also going through. Okay, what are some other ways that I can fill? 00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:54.000 What exercises do to me and like, I said, that that could potentially bring about. 00:24:54.000 --> 00:25:00.000 Maybe it's it is literally for the way it may change my body, or it is changing my body. 00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:07.000 And that brings up like I said, a whole. We may date an exercise vacation and to work on our relationship with movement. 00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:10.000 All the dress in stage 2, video 3. So you're covered there. 00:25:10.000 --> 00:25:18.000 Alright? This question. This is a long question, so I will read it. 00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:28.000 So the question says recently, I've been having adjusting my having trouble adjusting my meals around some meetings at work and work related plans. 00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:46.000 For example, yesterday I had an earlier than normal meeting, and as a consequence I had to have my breakfast earlier than usual, despite not being super hungry, my question is, I guess, related to practical hunger and a rangeing meal times, according to my meetings, not the other way around because it's 00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:49.000 almost impossible to schedule appointments and meetings around. 00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:51.000 When I think I'm gonna be hungry to have my meals. 00:25:51.000 --> 00:25:56.000 But it's very difficult for me to have a meal without being ravenous. 00:25:56.000 --> 00:26:04.000 I also notice that it's more difficult to listen to my fullness while eating a meal without having been super hungry before starting. 00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:05.000 After finishing my quote-unquote portion. I don't know whether I'm full or not. 00:26:05.000 --> 00:26:12.000 On the other hand, being able to sense fullness does not happen. 00:26:12.000 --> 00:26:19.000 If I've had begun the meal. Being super hungry for context, I have a history of restrictive eating. 00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:32.000 I've been prescribed several meal plans with specific portions, but the only meal I've been weighing flash tracking is breakfast, because it's that a meal, after which it's the most difficult for me to know whether I'm full or not the other meals. 00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:34.000 I just weighed the minimum portion that I should be having. 00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:37.000 And if I want more I just add more to my plate. 00:26:37.000 --> 00:26:41.000 Okay. So you guys know, I'm always reading your questions. 00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:42.000 And really diving into kind of reading between the lines a little bit. 00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:49.000 And there's a couple things that really stick out to me about this question. 00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:55.000 The first part is that they say it's very difficult for me to honor my fullness without starting, a meal being ravenous. 00:26:55.000 --> 00:27:06.000 This tells me that we may not have very strong, reliable hunger and fullness. 00:27:06.000 --> 00:27:15.000 Cues. When you start this journey it's very normal to only feel kind of like the extremes I either fell ravenous, or I don't feel super full. 00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:25.000 I don't know what the middle ground is like. Okay, we teach you how to get those hunger cues back and refine them so you can notice some of those more subtle ones in Stage 3. 00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:38.000 We do something called biological recognition. I would bet that that's what you're needing right now is a little bit more of the biological reconditioning, especially when you say I come from a background of restriction. 00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:42.000 I don't think that we can listen to our own cues right now. 00:27:42.000 --> 00:27:47.000 This is very common. Most people can't listen to their cues right away. 00:27:47.000 --> 00:27:50.000 We can't listen to their cues right away. We can learn how. But there's this misconception with intuition. 00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:51.000 Good of eating. 00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:54.000 On social media that it's okay. I'm just gonna start. 00:27:54.000 --> 00:27:55.000 And there's so much more. 00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:59.000 Relearn how to do that right. And so we do that. 00:27:59.000 --> 00:28:15.000 Okay. 00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:22.000 In stage 3 so that's the first thing that sticks out to me. 00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:23.000 The second thing that sticks out to me is the weighing of the food. 00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:24.000 Now, this is something that we ideally want to. 00:28:24.000 --> 00:28:29.000 At the beginning. 00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:36.000 Okay. 00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:37.000 Tools. 00:28:37.000 --> 00:29:07.000 In a lot of people will say that I want to make sure that I eat the minimum but a lot of times this is kind of a crutch that we hold onto. And a lot of times we kind of use as a ceiling right? We say, it's kind of like this minimum but a lot of 00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:28.000 sandwich for lunch right? A lot of times. The weighing is absolutely unnecessary, and if, for some medical reason it is, I would recommend working with a dietician to put that on them, I don't believe that anyone should have to monitor their intake that closely when we have had 00:29:28.000 --> 00:29:46.000 a history of disordered eating. Like I said, if that is medically needed for any case to ensure medical stability working as a dietitian might be the best option, so I would say, like I said, I really think the biggest thing that sticks out to me is I think some biological reconditioning 00:29:46.000 --> 00:29:50.000 is needed here to help get those hunger keys back. 00:29:50.000 --> 00:29:58.000 Now I do want to answer the question on practical hunger, so practical hunger is the idea that we can't always just, you know. 00:29:58.000 --> 00:30:05.000 Listen to our physical hunger and fullness. Cues a lot of times we do have to listen to our physical hunger and fullness queues a lot of times we do have to listen to. 00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:15.000 Our brain is also a part of our bodies. Our brain is also a part of our body. So when we say, Listen to our body, we also mean, listen to our little Nuggins here, and sometimes we have to say, you know what I'm not super hungry. 00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:29.000 Right, and I think the best. The thing that would benefit me the most is to probably eat something, even though I'm not super hungry right in one way that I like to kind of gauge this with meetings throughout the day. 00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:36.000 I have tons of meetings scattered throughout the day, and I always ask myself, actually did this before. 00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:37.000 This call is, how am I gonna feel when I get off of this meeting? 00:30:37.000 --> 00:30:50.000 I had a swaying lunch, and I was coming down down to my office to do this call, and I thought about it I was like, you know what I think. 00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:53.000 If I don't have, or I'm gonna be ravenous when I get off this call, like I felt fine. 00:30:53.000 --> 00:31:11.000 My hunger cues were gone, but I wasn't gonna have sustained energy, and I think that's also another thing to just kind of note is that being full doesn't necessarily mean my hunger cues are just gone right? 00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:15.000 Sometimes you have to think about. How long is this food going to be able to keep me full? 00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:16.000 We won't always know. 00:31:16.000 --> 00:31:20.000 But the more that you do this work you'll be able to kind of gauge that. 00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:24.000 So that is one way that I like to do that. I want to say. 00:31:24.000 --> 00:31:29.000 It was a week or 2 ago. I had an appointment, and usually I have a snack. 00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:37.000 I grab a protein bar. I'm my way out the door, and I thought about it, and I was like I really don't feel that hungry right now. 00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:45.000 And so I asked myself, I said, Okay, this meeting is going to be like an hour am I gonna be ravenous by the time I get home in an hour? 00:31:45.000 --> 00:31:49.000 And the answer was, No, so then I did wait until after right. 00:31:49.000 --> 00:32:09.000 So I think that's the best way to gauge, and I think in today's society, we use practical hunger a lot more than we probably expect to. So that's how I kind of recommend navigating that we typically want to avoid being too ravenous because that makes it much more difficult 00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:26.000 now, you're saying the opposite in this question, which like, I said, kind of signals to me that maybe we don't have super strong hunger cues, and the reason that we feel like it's easier is because we don't know those middle cues it's going to take some time to learn those but I think 00:32:26.000 --> 00:32:32.000 that's going to be one of the biggest things to help you in that situation. 00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:38.000 Okay. Oh, I love this question so much. It says my husband and I are ready to try trying for our next baby. 00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:52.000 But I'm wondering if we should wait and let intuitive eating solidify more for me first I've been in the society for a few weeks, although I've worked on intuitive eating before that so I'm not totally sure basically, I'm wondering is there any 00:32:52.000 --> 00:33:08.000 legitimacy in being nervous, that being pregnant, not feeling great, and being bigger and bigger, will stop me from making progress with intuitive eating, and if it is risky because I'm so new at it, we're waiting some time make me more be able to eat intuitively while 00:33:08.000 --> 00:33:19.000 pricing. First of all, I just want to say your what I want to read exactly what I'm wondering if there's any legitimacy and being nervous. 00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:31.000 There's absolutely legitimacy in being nervous right if you feel all your feelings are valid, any feelings that you feel are absolutely valid, I would say that you don't need to wait. 00:33:31.000 --> 00:33:43.000 I would say, having the society is going to be the best thing for this, if it honestly it's gonna be the best thing for you. 00:33:43.000 --> 00:34:03.000 Your fertility for your future child thinking about. If you can work on your own journey with intuitive eating, and being able to bring them into the world when you are an intuitive eater, then they're going to be more likely to be raised as an intuitive eater so I would highly highly 00:34:03.000 --> 00:34:21.000 recommend continuing to work on this stuff and being able to eat intuitively during pregnancy, is so so helpful because you're gonna be able to fuel your body in a way that feels good, you're not going to be able you're not going to feel guilty about the days when we 00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:22.000 can only eat bread right about the days when we don't feel good. 00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:29.000 You're going to have such a lesson. Stressful pregnancy. 00:34:29.000 --> 00:34:41.000 If you are working on this stuff in general. So from just a health perspective highly highly recommend it, plus when we get pregnant, you know, our bodies are gonna change. 00:34:41.000 --> 00:34:46.000 So having all the resources in society is gonna be huge for that, we do have quite a bit. 00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:50.000 I want to point out some resources in the society for you. 00:34:50.000 --> 00:34:55.000 We have. If you go to the Resource library Tab, if you go to the workshops, or you can just type. 00:34:55.000 --> 00:34:56.000 The. 00:34:56.000 --> 00:34:57.000 We have. 00:34:57.000 --> 00:34:58.000 For fertility just different things. You can do as you're preparing. 00:34:58.000 --> 00:34:59.000 For pregnancy. We also have a. 00:34:59.000 --> 00:35:05.000 Prenatal one that talks about the different that you can do when you're pregnant in an intuitive eating way. But to fuel your body, to be able to give your you know body and the baby. 00:35:05.000 --> 00:35:06.000 Okay. 00:35:06.000 --> 00:35:07.000 The best. 00:35:07.000 --> 00:35:20.000 Nourishment possible without any food rules. So we've got so much to support you. And I would just say, seeing members go through the society when they are pregnant, is just one of. 00:35:20.000 --> 00:35:21.000 The. 00:35:21.000 --> 00:35:27.000 Feel like best things, and to be able to have that support, I think, is absolutely amazing. 00:35:27.000 --> 00:35:28.000 We've had so so many members be pregnant, become new moms and stay in the community. 00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:42.000 'm! Richard is here on this call. I remember what you posted that you just had your baby, and it was just the best thing. 00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:43.000 So we are here to support you. A 180%. You are going to. 00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:59.000 I just I'm so excited for you, but also so excited for you to feel not alone on this journey in the chat here, saying, Yes, I can recommend we're here for you. 00:35:59.000 --> 00:36:08.000 We're excited for you, for whatever the future, the future holds so absolutely, I think that you there your feelings are valid for feeling nervous, but there is no reason I feel like there's only reasons to support continuity. 00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:19.000 This journey. So I'm excited for you. Alright guys. 00:36:19.000 --> 00:36:24.000 A few more questions here. This one says, is it possible to track Macros any intuitively so? 00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:33.000 One thing that I noted when I have you guys fill out the forms when you submit questions each week I ask you what stage you're on. 00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:38.000 And this is a perfect example of, because this person is on stage one. 00:36:38.000 --> 00:36:39.000 Okay, in stage 3, we talk a lot about macronutrients. 00:36:39.000 --> 00:36:56.000 Okay. So I would say that when we are tracking things and counting things, it is going to take away from our ability to eat intuitively. 00:36:56.000 --> 00:37:04.000 But that does not mean that thinking and considering macronutrients is not important. 00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:09.000 It is something that I teach in Stage 3. So yes, we want to think about that. 00:37:09.000 --> 00:37:15.000 The first thing that I recommend is including carb set and protein at each meal. We do not need to track them. 00:37:15.000 --> 00:37:19.000 We do not need to weigh them. We do not need to get so specific about them. 00:37:19.000 --> 00:37:24.000 But a lot of times people think, well, what do I do with all of this information? 00:37:24.000 --> 00:37:27.000 This nutrition information that I've gotten from Diets. 00:37:27.000 --> 00:37:42.000 It doesn't necessarily mean that it's all bad, right thinking about things like carbs, fat protein is important, and that is actually a huge part of how we undo the damage of dieting, and how we get our hunger and fullness cues. 00:37:42.000 --> 00:37:49.000 Back nice and strong, so is it possible to track Macros and E intuitively. 00:37:49.000 --> 00:37:50.000 It's alright! Not necessary, and if you have ever had a poor relationship with food, I would highly not recommend it. 00:37:50.000 --> 00:38:02.000 Does that mean? We don't consider macronutrients absolutely. Not so. 00:38:02.000 --> 00:38:03.000 I would say, if you are currently let's say you're currently tracking, or you're thinking about tracking right? 00:38:03.000 --> 00:38:16.000 I would say what if we didn't log anything? We didn't monitor anything? 00:38:16.000 --> 00:38:20.000 Instead, you tried this. This is part of what I teach in stage 3. 00:38:20.000 --> 00:38:24.000 Carb set and protein, including some source of those at each meal. 00:38:24.000 --> 00:38:29.000 Does that keep you full longer? This is Key reflecting on. How did that make me feel? 00:38:29.000 --> 00:38:39.000 So did that make me feel full longer, for an example, I made a salad a couple weeks ago, and it didn't have a really strong carved source to it. 00:38:39.000 --> 00:38:40.000 I always add by crew, top. 00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:42.000 Or something. But I realized. 00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:53.000 It's just still didn't have enough to satisfy me the days that I had a sandwich I felt much more full and satisfied the difference was, one had much, much more predominant carb source. 00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:54.000 So that's that's those are the kinds of things that I want. 00:38:54.000 --> 00:38:56.000 You to think about in terms of macronutrients. 00:38:56.000 --> 00:39:00.000 Right if I have a meal with more protein. 00:39:00.000 --> 00:39:06.000 Does that keep me full longer? If I have a meal with no fat, do I get hungry faster it's a real one for me. 00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:09.000 If I have no fat, and I me like it's starving soon. 00:39:09.000 --> 00:39:16.000 So thinking about those things, and then at snacks, comparing and contrasting what is a meal snack of like? 00:39:16.000 --> 00:39:20.000 Let's say watermelon right? What is that? 00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:27.000 How does that keep me full versus a snack, which, if we want a fulfilling snack, something that I recommend, is having 2 macronutrients. 00:39:27.000 --> 00:39:33.000 So maybe we have watermelon. It's got a little carbohydrate, and they're not a super strong carbohydrate source. 00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:41.000 But what if? I added, maybe some granola to it for the sounds really good, you guys, Granola to it? 00:39:41.000 --> 00:39:44.000 And then some feta cheese, a little sweet and salty action. 00:39:44.000 --> 00:39:52.000 There feta cheese on watermelon is so so delicious, or maybe rather than just saying, I'm gonna have a slice of toast for a snack. 00:39:52.000 --> 00:39:53.000 Maybe I have toast and some peanut butter on top. 00:39:53.000 --> 00:39:58.000 See how we kind of like. Think about macronutrients, but we don't need to track them. 00:39:58.000 --> 00:40:03.000 It's more of thinking about the inclusion of them. 00:40:03.000 --> 00:40:12.000 Okay. Alright. We have 2 more questions. What are some good steps to bring binge foods into the house without getting proceeding to eating all the things? 00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:20.000 This is another question that I looked back at to see what stage you were on, and this was on stage One. 00:40:20.000 --> 00:40:38.000 So I teach this in a very, very specific way to help when you bring those binge foods back in the house to literally prevent eating all of the things I highly highly recommend focusing on your hunger and fullness cues before bringing the Binge foods back into the house the reason 00:40:38.000 --> 00:40:44.000 for this is again the biological needs. If we don't have a good sense of our hunger and fullness cues, of course we're not going to know how to stop eating right. 00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:50.000 So it's like, if we start with that which most people do. 00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:55.000 I did bringing all the foods back in. Of course we're not good. 00:40:55.000 --> 00:41:00.000 We're kind of setting ourselves up to fail right? Of course, we're not gonna know how to stop. 00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:06.000 So Stage 3 is gonna teach you how to hone in your hunger and fullness cues and Stage 4 is going to teach you how to bring those foods back in. 00:41:06.000 --> 00:41:10.000 Now, when we do that you'll learn all about it in Stage 4. 00:41:10.000 --> 00:41:15.000 We're not going to do it all at once. I'm actually gonna have you create a list of all of those foods. 00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:20.000 And I want you to order them from easiest to hardest, or what you preceive to be easiest to hardest. 00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:21.000 And then we're going to work through those one by one. 00:41:21.000 --> 00:41:24.000 Okay, I know you might think. Oh, my gosh, that's going to take such a long time. It actually helps you. 00:41:24.000 --> 00:41:35.000 You're gonna make progress so much faster. The first 2 they might take a little bit, but then it's gonna become just like you're gonna start buzzing through on highly highly recommend that you guys doing that. 00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:45.000 Stepwise approach is the least overwhelming way to do it, and it really does help prevent kind of like bottomless kind of like eating. 00:41:45.000 --> 00:41:51.000 Okay. Alright. Last question. This question is about the term soul nourishing and body nursing, which I use a lot. 00:41:51.000 --> 00:41:54.000 So I'm going to read the questions a little longer. 00:41:54.000 --> 00:41:58.000 It says, my question is about the terms soul nourishing, and body nourishing. 00:41:58.000 --> 00:42:02.000 I understand what you classify under each. But are there any other ways? 00:42:02.000 --> 00:42:08.000 All these foods can be described personally. I feel like this term still has some assumptions or judgments. 00:42:08.000 --> 00:42:24.000 I mean, when I'm craving fruit that actually would be more soul nourishing to me, no, not trying to argue, just trying to understand as I want to raise my little son as an intuitive eater, and would like some ideas or insights of other ways that we can call food can food. 00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:28.000 Just be food and serve as different functions, just trying to understand. 00:42:28.000 --> 00:42:39.000 I love any and all questions, and I think that the words that are gonna resonate for you are gonna different be different for everyone, soul nourishing it predominantly. 00:42:39.000 --> 00:42:43.000 It's more soul nourishing than nutrient, nourishing right. 00:42:43.000 --> 00:42:48.000 So that's what's meant by that. You could also use a term play food I don't love that term. 00:42:48.000 --> 00:42:49.000 I don't know what it is, but that's just shows you what I use. 00:42:49.000 --> 00:42:58.000 You don't have to use. You could use play food you could use nutrient dense versus less nutrient, dense. 00:42:58.000 --> 00:43:02.000 There's so many different ways that you could kind of classify these suits. 00:43:02.000 --> 00:43:07.000 I love, how much you are thinking into this! I think it is absolutely amazing. 00:43:07.000 --> 00:43:13.000 But play food more nutrient dense can be something. 00:43:13.000 --> 00:43:14.000 It's also important to think about what is the kid gonna understand? 00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:19.000 Right. A child may not understand what is soul nourishing me. 00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:35.000 They might understand more fun, food, or play food. I don't love the term sometimes food, because that does kind of set like we shouldn't eat these all the time, and it can have a sense of a little bit of a restriction there so those are a couple different ideas play around with them. 00:43:35.000 --> 00:43:41.000 This would be also another great one to post in the Facebook group to get some other ideas. 00:43:41.000 --> 00:43:42.000 But I hope that helps you and kinda get your gets your noggin going. 00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:49.000 Okay. Bailey's on the call. She's says intuitive eating while pregnant, is so beneficial angel says, Yeah, for babies love it. 00:43:49.000 --> 00:43:58.000 Oh, love you guys so much.
