I am not sure what to say (This is know is completely white privilege). But I am working on it and educating myself. I am here to support. 🙌🏻👏🏼🙌🏽👏🏾🙌🏿 I will not be sharing my original content this week and focusing on #blackentrepreneurs and #blackwomenentrepreneurs, especially in the #heathandwellness field. . I would love for you guys to tag them in the comments below as well so we can create a list!

Listening. #blackouttuesday #endracism

Okayyyyy so exercise and food can be hard. Many times after a run, I typically don’t want food (anyone else?). For lunch I made a plate that sounded good, and after eating a few bites it was not what my body was wanting... keep swiping to the last picture where you will see what I ended up eating because this is what my body was craving!! ❤️ . . CEREAL sounded so much better than veggies, and so that’s what I ate. #intuitiveeating is meant to harness in those feelings of what they body is craving, the hardest part of this however is LISTENING to your body! 😊

Let's Get Personal! (Sang in my head to Let's Get Physical!) 🎶 . . #DietCulture thoughts: This might be different for others, but similar.... So I was "told" I should only be hungry every 4-5 hours. So I took this to heart. If I ate at 12 pm then I shouldn't eat again until 5 pm. Then I started to push it, "Well, I could do a few more hours... I bet I could wait 7 hours... then 8 hours.. then 9 hours.. sometimes going 12 hours in between meals." I started to feel really powerful and I was in control. But I was extremely tired, irritable, and constantly thinking about food. . . It was maybe the darkest part. The restriction and the hold this had over me. I would watch the clock and not eat a minute too soon. Time played with my head and it was the hardest, most difficult part to work through, due to being told many years before that I had to wait 4-5 hours between meals. . . Like with many things, someone just put a number on it and all of a sudden we have a culture of having to get 10,000 steps, or a certain BMI or 2,000 calories. It is all just numbers someone came up with. I now eat when I am hungry. This is the #intuitiveeating approach, I like to work on with my clients. I eat when I am hungry and listen to my body.

"I walked 3 miles, so I burned approximately 300 calories so I can eat that cookie." I hear something similar to this from clients frequently. If you want the cookie, you eat the cookie. We are not designed to only eat food we earn. I have said it multiple times on my feed before, but even if you sit all day and do nothing your body is still burning energy and needs that energy to be replaced in order to keep functioning. ❤️ I could also go on a whole tangent of... we tend to as a culture feel we can only earn "bad foods" (the only bad foods are the ones that are rotten!). For some reason we can't just eat a cookie to eat a cookie we need to earn it. We would never feel the need to earn a salad, or protein... why do we put this label on other foods? ❤️

We haven’t been eating out a ton during #quarantine2020 but we did order @piadaitalianstreetfood a few nights ago and this salad hit the spot! Paired with a side of “garlic bread sticks” not pictured! . Have you been eating out more or less during this time?
