Summary

Hey beautiful human. 

There's this idea out there that once you're done tracking or dieting, intuitive eating should just click. That you'll suddenly know what to eat, when to eat, and how much.

But if things feel kind of chaotic instead? There's a reason for that.

In this episode, we're getting into the real reason intuitive eating feels hard, especially after years of under-eating, skipping meals, or labeling foods as "good" or "bad." I'll walk you through:

  • What happens to your hunger cues when your body's been in survival mode

  • Why cravings aren't just about what your body needs, but what it's used to

  • How blood sugar affects your ability to feel hunger and fullness

  • Why macro counting can actually build the foundation for intuitive eating

  • And how repetition (not guessing) brings those cues back online

If your goal is to eat without overthinking but your body's not giving you clear signals yet. this is where you start.

And if you want help building that stable, consistent foundation, check out my Macro Counting Made Simple Online Academy. I'll show you exactly how to fuel your body in a way that actually makes sense.
