GF Choc Coconut Slice
Mmmm Chocolate Slice Heaven!
Does this sound familiar "oh I would love a slice... but I shouldn't.."
Screw that nonsense, let's chat intuitive eating for a sec⬇️
🍰Eating intuitively is feeling completely empowered to eat what you want, when you want & ultimately knowing how this will feed your body & soul. It's about building trust with yourself.
🍰It helped me ditch diet culture, strengthen my self-esteem & sustainably lose 25kg!
🍰Check in with your food & mood habits. When do you crave certain foods & why do you think this is?
🍰What is your self-talk like? Is it talking to you like it would your best friend? Or is it tearing you down??
🍰Switch to whole foods & watch as your palate and cravings adjust! Suddenly, you have the power back, you are in control of your food choices.
🍰I used to easily down a whole block of Cadbury milk chocolate.. now I feel sick after a couple of pieces. Your body begins to intuitively crave REAL foods, now it’s a couple squares of dark choc for me. Yep, I naturally became THAT person!
🍰Ready to feel empowered?
