Every day is unpredictable.

     Every day is unpredictable. So much decides what you genuinely need to eat. For example- the weather, stress, happiness, and sleep all impact your organic self. You are intuitively responding with your senses to everything, all the time. 

Be gentle, you are organic.

Organic means: not artificial.

To be your ideal weight: work with your body, don’t fight it, or ignore it.

     Feed your self what nourishes, not what ‘fills you up’. Nourishing your self is done with food, and with ideas. It is done by connecting with your 6 senses when you eat. Your senses work with your mind and your body to let you be clear about what is nourishing. Let your intuition be your guide.  Trust your self.

     Every one has a physical and a mental process of growing that cannot be rushed. You can’t be rushed to change your thinking, your weight, or your style. Be proud that you are seeking answers and knowledge. That means you’re smart and you’re cool.

While you’re thinking, ask your self:

Do I have eating patterns?

What gets in my way of supporting my health and fitness when I eat?

How can I approach eating differently?

     Often, when thinking about losing and maintaining weight, we are easy prey to doubts that it will work, or fears that we won’t be able to stick it out.  These self- defeating thinking habits interfere with responding to what your body needs. There is no such thing as a quick fix that endures. Every dieter knows this from experience.

Don't feed your self doubt or fear. 

When you listen to your senses, you are feeding yourself compassion, and understanding. 

This is empowering!

Your body is not a machine and you are not generic. That’s why only you know your best eating choices. Use your eyes to see what you want. Connect with how your body feels. Think about what’s in your best interest. Respond to your life as it’s happening. Plan to feed your self in a healthy way to maintain your weight. That is a nourishing thought.  It is you respecting your self.

Your body cannot be rushed to change. To lose weight or maintain weight loss, you need to be gentle with your self. Being gentle is the secret of self - control. 

Enjoy eating with all of your senses and you will eat less.  That's a promise.
