Our intention today is to be open-minded to change.
Change can be scary and often we think it is long term. When it comes to changing your eating habits some fear may pop up because of past experiences. Maybe you worked with a coach, trainer, or just tried a random diet online that told you to cut out your favorite food. You might have fears similar to some of my clients. Thoughts like โPlease donโt tell me I have to stop drinking coffee, I just canโt live without it.โ
The thing I want to point out today is that youโre always in full control. If you love coffee, donโt ever let anyone stop you or make you feel guilt for enjoying it. Live your life. Weight loss and living healthy donโt have to be taken to extremes. It is possible to have your cake and eat it too and the path there is intuitive eating and seeing food as abundant.
Today notice these fear-based thoughts of someone taking a food or beverage you like away from you. Notice if it feels like an attack AND if it feels long term.
It isnโt an attack, it is really just someone's opinion of what they think you should do for health or weight loss. Sometimes these opinions are valid and fact-based and sometimes they arenโt. Nothing is off-limits going forward starting right this moment. You may still have beliefs that carbs are bad or a food isnโt allowed because it causes weight gain but do your best to let these thoughts go and instead, begin listening to your body before jumping on board with these worries and limiting beliefs
