Which would you pick today?!
.
I eat both of these without an ounce of guilt. ?Some days there is nothing like soft donut with some kick A$$ frosting ?Ya feel me?! But, on the day-to-day, I feel better when I have a more nutrient dense meal, like oatmeal or a yogurt bowl.
.
What most people get WRONG about living w/ no food rules is that it means you’re supposed to pick the most “unhealthy” food all of the time. ?And while it’s true you’re probs going to want the previously deemed “bad/unhealthy” (totes are NOT btw?♀️) foods more often at first, & I highly recommend you do eat that food as-is, over time you’ll start to learn what feels good & what doesn’t.
.
I used to feel guilty if I made a “healthier” choice?, like adding having oatmeal for breakfast and NOT the donut because IG made me think I was doing intuitive eating “wrong” but.. F that! ?You do you. ??Do what feels good. & gentle nutrition can & does come into play once you’ve broken your food rules & see all food equally.
.
A key question ? to ask yourself is: “Would I feel guilty/stressed/anxious if only the plain mac n cheese was available w/ no broccoli in sight?” ? If the answer is no, then enjoy your broccoli ? and your preference of having a little gentle nutrition in there! If the answer is yes, you would feel anxious, that likely signals a food rule… ? not a preference.. And ya might need to do some work to normalize that food.

Not sure if you have food rules or preferences for “healthy” food? Take the quiz linked in my bio which will tell you if you have food rules or if you’re just “eating healthy”! It’s SUPER important to be aware of this!
