I used to almost ALWAYS feel uncomfortably full after meals – unless I was restricting or on a diet, in which case, I was just always hungry.
Today I never feel uncomfortable after meals – not even on Thanksgiving or Christmas.
And no, it doesn’t feel sad.
I don’t restrict or miss out on anything.
I have a hearty appetite and an active lifestyle, so I eat quite a bit sometimes, but there’s never a feeling of discomfort, or a loss of control with food, like when I was binging.
I just don’t have it in me anymore.
I know my body and I have no desire to overeat.
I just feel happy and satisfied after meals, ready to dance, bounce around, or whatever else I want to do.
Food no longer takes me out.
If you want this too, the Mechanics of Intuitive Eating master class is a great place to start.

After watching the class you’ll have everything you need to start practicing intuitive eating right away.
Breaking the cycle of restriction and discomfort was a PARADIGM shift for me.
I was born into a very restrictive diet – Macrobiotics – and then we slowly branched out as I grew up.
I was really sensitive to a lot of foods, and felt a lot of fear around things like pizza and cookies.
It was a classic forbidden fruit situation – I wanted what I couldn’t have.
The tension was palpable.
By high school I was dieting to try to lose weight, which led me into severe restriction, binging, and purging.
I was only able to break these toxic cycles by fully committing to intuitive eating and fully abandoning diets and restrictive mentalities, in thought and action.
I had to be all in on intuitive eating – I could not have one foot in a diet.
I could not have a dieter in my ear, and I had to create a zero tolerance policy on food and body talk.
Today I’m fully an intuitive eater – I don’t entertain diets, detoxes, or cleanses (the body has dedicated cleansing organs that work 24/7).
I never restrict, I never overeat, and I never eat to tune out or numb out.
At the same time, there is a sense of lightness and playfulness in my approach to food.
I do not agonize over what I should eat, what I’ve eaten so far in a day, or what I will eat later.
I just listen to my body.
I fully enjoy my food with all my senses.
I love eating out.
I love cooking.
I don’t even mind doing dishes.
I love the whole experience of nourishing myself.
If you want this for yourself, I strongly recommend getting in on the Mechanics of Intuitive Eating master class today.
