Weight Gains and Losses


Weight gains and losses are legendary and utterly frustrating to hear about.  We keep asking ourselves, why!? and then we go back to the old habits. 

Sometimes humor is a great way to break old habits. After all, we're so busy doing whatever is put in front of us, it's easy to get into ruts. My daughter told me with a serious expression that she realized shampoo was causing her to gain weight! I was stomped until she said, "Well the label says, Use for extra volume and body and it was running down my body! No wonder I was gaining weight!" While I was blinking my eyes trying take this in, without a beat she continued, "That's way I've started using dish soap in the shower- the label says, Dissolves fat that is otherwise difficult to remove!" 

Humor takes us out of our ruts by giving a fresh perspective. We learn about ourselves. The better you know yourself, the freer you are from weight gains and loses.

That's what using intuitive eating tools does for you. Like humor, your way of seeing things changes. You see yourself differently.

Learn to eat intuitively and learn about yourself.

You can learn to recognize physical cues you're getting with your 6th sense by using intuitive tools.They are the hand rail that you can grab on, to keep you on track and away from weight yo-yo frustration. 


Everyone can do it because using intuition is being plugged into yourself. Your appetite is personal, just like your fingerprints or DNA. Eating is as natural as breathing and as important for your health and energy level.


Your body is not a machine and you are not generic.
That’s why only you know your best eating choices. 
It's intuitive to be loyal to yourself. 

The next time you feel you're slipping and about to yo-yo, think about being loyal to you. Decide to be loyal to your body and your heart and you will feel something. That feeling, created by your loyalty, is your intuition.   

Try it.
