⭐️Don’t restrict carbs⭐️
.
Restricting carbs actually drives you to want them MORE by increasing something called neuropeptide Y. That “Omg! Need all of the carbs now!” isn’t a lack of willpower it is your biology trying to save you and allow your body and brain to function at their tippy top shape.

As an intuitive eater who doesn’t diet you have the absolutely right to eat a cucumber or a cracker.?♀️ Might just depend on the day! The cucumber isn’t “better” and nor is the “cracker”. They’re just different. Don’t let social media trap you into thinking intuitive eating = always eating crackers. Cause that’s just turning it into another diet!
