Stop and think about this ?

What comes to mind for you when I say “veggies”?
.
Is it ➡️ they’re “healthy”, they’re low-cal, they’ll help me lose weight, they’re what I “should” be eating, they’re bland, they’re boring, they’re…. Associated with all of the times I tried a diet and “failed.”
.
What if you could change that to ➡️they’re packed with nutrients that my body needs and loves, they make me feel good, they can be prepared to be tasty as sh*t, they’re not “better” than the cookies they’re just different.
.
That’d be pretty cool, huh? Well, it can happen. One thing that you can try ASAP to regain your love for veggies is to try either buying a new veggie you do NOT associate with a previous diet you’ve done (maybe an eggplant, kohlrabi, or swiss chard!) or preparing a veggie in a new way (roasting or air frying or grilling!) This can help you start to disassociate veggies from dieting.
.
Another thing you can do is to really tune into how your BODY feels when you eat them. Not you feeling like you’re “being good” because you stuck to a diet rule. Feeling good VS feeling like you’re BEING good are two different things!
.
Intuitive eating and gentle nutrition are the two puzzle pieces of a healthy, non-diet life. If you’re struggle with the 2nd ?of gentle nutrition I’ve got your back ❤️
