On the hunger - fullness scale, where do you usually start eating? đ
At my breakfast tableđ„
When I am totally starving
Pick Up Limes
I eat whenever food is available. I love to eat and unfortunately I donât let hunger dictate it. Iâm watching this video for guidance.
Depends on the day. Sometimes I wait until Iâm famished and getting hangry, others I just kind of mindlessly munch

I love how she uses the word âwholesomeâ rather than âhealthyâ
YES, she is a queen
Because all food are healthy in different levels
This video should be shown to all teenagers in school, I feel like thatâs the time food struggles begin and peak for most people
Agree 1000%.
totally agree!
Agree I started developing an ED when I was 13 but now Iâm 17 going on 18 and Iâm recovered
Yeah! I'm just turned 15 and being so overwhelmed by doing different sort of diets and when nothing works I eat more and feel depressed and cries
This was so motivational đđ
yeah, and when it escalates their, it will never quite let you go later . . .
I love how you're an actual certified dietician yet still have such a holistic approach towards health and wellness which you're able to explain to a huge audience so beautifully â€ïž
I love this. All I ever did was diet, my mom put me on a diet when I was 5. When my husband and I were trying to have a kid I couldn't get pregnant, even with IVF treatment. Doctors couldn't figure out why since my cycle was normal. Found intuitive eating, not only did my temperament get better (i mean, whose in a good mood when your constantly hungry)but the first time in my life I had a healthy relationship with food, never thought it would happened. Gained some weight, didn't care bc this was the best I ever felt and six months later after 3 years of trying, i got pregnant naturally. 8 months pregnant now â€ïž lol sorry, this is just my story.
how are you, baby and dad doing?
this is beautiful. congratulations
Congratulations... hope you n your baby are healthy n happy đ
@@cynoglav9665 Doing good, he is over a year old now and he is happy and healthy, and so am I. Wishing you a wonderful day!
@@bellydancer4078 Awesome news. Hope you have a great day, too!
The most angelic and softest "shit" I've ever heard. đđđđ
She hit the nail on the mind for most of us!
I wish that word had not come out of her. Such a serene person could have avoided that word..everything else she says and does is heavenly
@@ugirishnair it's just a word...
Thatâs because it is staged. Trivial information underlined with nice images and music so everybody thinks here is something of large worth
@@a.g.4843 The staging give it its value!
I just wanted to say thank you so much for this video. My mom has spent the last 6 years dieting, doing cosmetic procedures, and taking medication that she can't even legally buy in attempts to lose weight. I sent her this last month and she got so excited, I think it was the first time someone actually told her that it's ok to eat what she wants. She bought the audiobook and even printed the guide for herself and she seems so much happier than she was before. Yesterday, I saw her eat her first slice of cheesecake without looking sad and disappointed or consumed by guilt. I almost cried with happiness. Truly, thank you.
10:09 love how the toddler stretches out his hand and continues walking, confident that his hand will be held. Trust.
Aw so cute. How you seen that
so cuuuuute
But honestly, who is giving those downvotes! Sadia, a video of yours is like a session with my psychologist. I automatically feel relaxed. It is like drinking tee with a close friend! Also thank you so much for speaking about this. I think a lot of people should hear this :)
I canât believe how perfect the timing of this video is. This is exactly what I needed. Thank you so much đ
Evie me tooooo !!!! I feel she was talking to me, blessings đđŒ

Going vegan helped me recover from anorexia. (Although Iâm not 100% recovered yet). It allowed me to count the colors on my plate instead of calories.
its_n â€ïžđđ»
That is a really poetic way to put it. I wish you all the best with your recovery!
That's amazing! I'm happy to hear that you are recovering on a diet, that nurishes our bodies and shows love and respect to animals. Counting in colors instead of calories is a lovely way to put it^^
Blessings to you.
congrats!
When is your podcast coming?đ
Whenever Iâm feeling anxious, stressed or being too hard on myself, I search for your videos on CZcams and they give me this weird sense of peace and acceptance within myself. Your videos are truly amazing. They are, in a way, like therapy to me. Thank you for always making my days better and for getting me through a lot of tough times. â€ïž
I agree!
I do the same thing too...it calms me down and shows me how I can attain a healthy life by having tasty food âșïž
I feel the same
So calming!
I second that â€ïž
I've never been so happy to hear you say *"Shit."* lmfao
This is the first time Iâve watched a video on intuitive eating that just speaks to me. I have to say this video made me emotional. Iâve struggled with food and body image for so long. I loved this video so much.
What you say about children is so true, I have an active toddler and he eats very intuitively. Once he is full, he is not going to reach for another cookie even if it's offered to him (unlike his mom). This was much needed. Thank you!
I have been recovering from an eating disorder for over half a year now and I'm so glad you decided to create this video! It's really perfectly timed. Thank you, Sadia! You bring love into everything you do and remind me of my own ability to do so.
Thank YOU, Anna - wishing you continued strength in your journey đ»
I have been recovering as well and seeing this video on my feed today gave me the comfort and motivation I needed
Anna Kravtsova â€ïžđđ»
We love Pick Up Limes! While we're not vegan, the recipes are delish, and my kids love all the vibrant colors on the videos. They're helping in the kitchen more and more!
I have such a shit relationship with food, I'm literally scared of calories and it is the first thing that comes to my head before and after i eat anything, I eat a very healthy vegetarian diet, and I rarely eat unhealthy food but, most unhealthy foods I've come to not even like anymore. im sometimes weeks skipping some meals and obsessively counting calories, drinking a lot of tea, coffee,water to reduce hunger, have the need to go to the gym for un least 40 min every day or I feel like shit. And then start motivating myself to improve the relationship and i start eating more (3 healthy meals a day and a snack) and I do that for a few weeks and then i feel like i have gained weight and i want to loose wait, so the process repeats itself. i hate the feeling that I can never eat anything without thinking about the calories it has. i wish i could have a healthy relationship with food and body image
Luz Ottone I am very sorry to hear that. Iâm just a stranger on the internet and I donât mean to overstep but to me it sounds like you might skirt the edges of an eating disorder. I know gaining weight is something we are taught to be a bad thing but I have read several sources recently who said that every body has its own ideal weight and thatâs what it will return to if you donât over- or undereat. So maybe you gaining weight after skipping meals just means that your body is trying to go back to the weight itâs meant to be at. (Sorry if this is too personal or making you feel uncomfortable, if so please let me know and I will delete this comment)
Maren Who thank you for this comment, the thing is im fully aware that what I think is not healthy behaviour but i still cant change the way my mind works
Luz Ottone I understand. I hope that you find a way to find peace with your body.
Someone I could recommend watching would be Stephanie Buttermore (on CZcams). She was very lean for many years, competed in bodybuilding etc, basically the physique a lot of people want to have. About a year ago she completely changed her approach (due to health problems and extreme hunger) and started eating just however much she felt like, gained a lot of weight and already lost some of it again and is on track to a really healthy weight and relationship with food.
At least for me it really helped, I went through a similar process and struggled with food for a long time until I did something similar and decided to trust my body. Using Stephanie as an example though because she has it documented.
I truly hope that you find peace with food, it takes time and it's honestly hard, but it's absolutely worth it. After tracking calories for many years and constantly obsessing over food, intuitive eating is the best decision I could've made. And after some initial fluctuation it did put me at a normal healthy weight, where I have so much energy and rediscovered that I actually enjoy sports a lot more if I don't care about the calories burned.
Me too and im 20kg overweight and Im in that hell hole with trying to mose weighy and gaining all back. Eating too much and then restricting. It is really fucked up... I hate it
The way you convey the message in each and every video is genius. This topic is so hard to explain to people even when you understand them. You have so flawlessly managed to get the message reach people asusual with so much of warmth and kindness. Feeling peaceful. đ„° I'm so glad that my parents told me at my young age to have food when you are hungry and not to postpone it because then you will have anything that you have got on hand. Eating when you have just started feeling hungry helps you make healthier choices. Very true. Thank you so much for this video. đ„°đ
just when I started slipping back into the diet mentality, Sadia comes to the rescue â€ïž thank you!! i'm sure as hell gonna print that pdf and try to snap out of it

Thank you so much for this video.
â„ïž
Thank you Sadia. Iâm only 23 but I have been an overeater as long as I can remember. I do have a really unbalanced diet, a sweet tooth that something even disgusts me, and a feeling of shame that I always carry with me - especially when meeting new people at work or in my house in general. I donât know what brought me to this, I just know that Iâm always craving junk eating at the point Im feeling sick and regret it after. Only few months ago I realized how serious it is getting, Iâm only slightly overweight but I see it could become worse if I donât do anything to change it soon. I will give a try to this, itâs the only thing Iâm missing to try to solve this problem, thanks for sharing this topic with us. In case it will work I will be forever grateful - in case not, I will have to seek for medical advice. But thank you so much.
I don't really know why, but while watching this video my eyes were filled with tears. Making peace with food is something I've been trying for a long time, with all different kinds of methods, from restriction to permission, and sometimes it goes very well, and sometimes it doesn't. Thank you, for these videos and promoting this healthy mindset, it has helped me tremendously. I can't express how grateful I am, thank you thank you! Lots of love
Thank you for being here and for being open to hearing what we share, Hannelore â€ïž
Transitioning to a totally plant based diet has improved my body dysmorphia amazingly! Youâd think by restricting foods it would be the opposite, but knowing that everything I consume is truly nourishing me makes it incredibly easy on my mind. Thank you for your awesome videos! It encourages me to talk about these things on my channel. đđŒđ
Do you restrict oils or sugar etc? Or just keep it all vegan?
That actually gave Me so much insight and motivation thank youâ€ïž
@@terrabear4093 I eat a completely WFPB diet, so no oils or sugars, but what changed for me was the mindset. I don't restrict anything of what I eat - i.e. I eat dates/nuts until as much as I want to. But the mindset shift is that I no longer see sugar or oil as food, just as I don't see dairy as food for me anymore. If this helps at all :)
Saga Vigre You got it! Thatâs just how I feel. đđŒ
I am in the process of transitioning to mainly plant based and Whole Foods.
Iâm 12 years old suffering with binge eating disorder. Iâve been dieting and drinking plenty of water. Nothing helps. I eat all foods in one sitting and can stomach so much. I need help but donât know where to get it. I came here because this is the best channel with such a sweet community.
Hello love! First of all: It's so amazing of you to admit that you are unhappy with your relationship with food and that you need help. I can't tell you how much that first step has helped me in my own life and how important it is to have a professional guide you through your journey when you're re-learning how to be and love yourself.
Depending on where you live, there are many great resources for getting help with an ED. Have you tried speaking to your parents about this? It can feel embarrassing at first, but your parents can be a great support for finding the person or people (a specialized psychologist or doctor) that will help you regain self-love and a healthy relationship with food. Also, search the web for support numbers in your area. Some of these have online chat options if you feel insecure talking on the phone (I certainly used to). They can point you in the right direction and sometimes even connect you with the right specialists for you.
You don't have to do this alone - and honestly, I think it's incredibly important not to. Reach out, don't lose your courage - I promise there is someone out there that can and will help!
Sending so much love your way!
This is so well timed. Iâve recently realized that I donât actually have a healthy relationship with food and that I donât really know how to genuinely get that, so this video was posted at the best possible time! Thank you for explaining, itâs incredibly helpful
iâm currently suffering with a binge eating disorder and bulimia i canât tell my parents i donât know what they would do but this has really helped me so i just wanted to say thank you as i think iâm willing to try this
don't be afraid to ask for a professional help. i believe you can overcome this illness. one step at a time.
Hey, I don't know your age but speaking so someone you trust about your eating disorder is very very important. That doesn't have to be a parent, but some other trust-person of yours that may help you figuring a way out to cope with this. When I was a teen I had an eating disorder too and getting therapy (which got me overcoming it) was only possible with talking to my parents.
Without knowing your relationship to your parents I would generally think, that they only want the best for you, being happy and healthy!
Eating disorders are so much more than problems with food, so the solution is often found elsewhere too.
Wish you all the best :)
Dear, please read the book called Brain over Binge - it explains why there's nothing wrong with you, the reasons to such a disorder and how to promptly, without years of therapy, quit it for good. It helped me a lot. Literally saved me
Yulia Lukerchik thank you i will look it up
You will get through this â€ïž I know just how that's like
You've probably read this here before, but your voice is amazing
Edurne Ace â€ïžđđ»
I was so surprised you said âshitâđ loved it though! I absolutely love your videos that are most wellness based!
Jennifer Hunt I had to pause and do a double-take đđ
Girl same!
I was surprised by that too but I loved it. Just makes me relate to her so much more. We're all human :)
Intuitive eating is the one & only solution for anyone who struggled with eating disorders..i had an unhealthy relationship with food in my early 20's and did everything you talked about in the beginning..but then i found a similar article of 2 french psychiatrists who majored in eating habits and nutrition and honestly that article saved me from the vicious cycle of restriction-overeating.. i just followed their tips and made peace with food again †this video was absolutely amazing Sadia very well done on this topic đâ€
There is only one reservation I have: intuitive eating doesnât work with people who are addicted to food or starving themselves.For every other person the concept of intuitive eating should be great đžđș
It's a very interest point you've brought up, Wanderlust :) The author of the book, Evelyn Tribole, discussing "food addiction" in length in some of her lectures and on her site; she still firmly believes in the benefits of intuitive eating. In case you're interested, here's a short blog post she wrote on the topic: www.evelyntribole.com/can-you-really-be-addicted-to-food/
Pick Up Limes I am , thank you. In another post I just said that I nearly got an eating disorder because I was afraid to gain weight ( lipodema is horrible since you lose any control at all). I used to exercise 4-5 times a week (swimming for an hour) plus measuring food but still got bigger and bigger. Thatâs in the past now but I still struggle with the concept of gaining weight. Intuition might help, so thanks a lot
Wanderlust: This is an excellent point. I am a stress, boredom, and emotional eater. Still, I want to try this. I appreciate Sadia's efforts.
Bloombaby99 lets try it together :)
You should definitely give it a try. I was diagnosed with an eating disorder. Having a set of rules, measurements and timing around food is not healthy for me. I have learned on therapy to be more mindful and intuitive with my eating. Has been a real life changer deal. I wish you both luck, and strength. Sending you resilience, strength and good vibes only.
this, yes this is so important to me, I transitioned to a plant based diet 3 months ago, i feel so much better, i do not weigh myself, my clothes fit better, however i know i am doing a good thing for me, the earth and the animals, i have dieted for 20 years, as a former meat eater, it never worked for me, this has given me a positive outlook mentally and physically
Finishing the plate was ingrained in me throughout my childhood. I recently realized Iâve spent years disconnected from feeling my own body, including hunger. I would rely on the time to dictate if I was allowed to eat or not. Iâm just beginning this journey of peace with food. Liberation from the shame and the self punishment. Thank you for this loving message, Iâll save it as a favorite and revisit again â„ïž
I love that you promote a healthy relationship with food. It's so needed in times of dieting culture and certain harmful 'beauty standards'. Intuition and compassion towards oneself - that's what will save us đ
I rarely comment on CZcams videos, but am coming out of hiding to say one thing: Reading Tribole and Resch's book on Intuitive Eating was truly life-changing for me. I completely understand that many may be very skeptical of an intuitive eating approach or think this isn't for them, but I would encourage those skeptics to check out the book or any other materials from Tribole and Resch. The book cites numerous studies that support this approach to nutrition and, frankly, offers the most compelling health advice I have ever encountered (and there is a lot of confusing health advice out there!). I was also surprised to learn that even though intuitive eating sounds super new and trendy, it has actually been around since 1995! If you have ever experienced feelings of guilt, shame, or fear when it comes to eating, I highly recommend this book. Thanks for this video, Sadia! And I hope this video helps someone heal their relationship with food!
Same. Their book and following the principles have helped me get a far better handle on my eating disorder.
Iâm glad you found it helpful too! I had so many mind blowing revelations while reading it!

@@cpmondello I suffered from an eating disorder in my teens, and then more generalized disordered eating behaviors in my 20s and found IE immensely helpful. I also understand that IE is frequently used for eating disorder recovery and has helped a lot of people. Everyone knows their own body and its limits best, however, so to each their own.
@@gollygeedamn Same, and excellent response. I'd add that Tribole and Resch are well known for their work with those who have eating disorders. In fact, it's my understanding their book on IE came out of their work with those who have eating disorders.
First of all, your hair is incredibly beautiful, bur especially your attitude. It has taken me a long time to accept food. I've never eaten unhealthily, nor do I have an illness which complicates my alimentation, but for a couple of years, I always ate 'low-carb', 'low-fat' and so on. Personally, diets really annoy me by now. Food can be the greatest thing in life because of all the reasons you mention in your video. The most important thing is to enjoy and respect it. Sadly, many people are so poor they are not able to eat. We should not view food overly critical all the time, as this would be unfair.
Thank you for your inspirational content! I've been following your videos for quite a time by now and still find them lovelyâ„
Thank YOU, Jonetsu â„
Interestingly, as I've been swinging to extremes diet-wise again...and my weight is UP due to it...I glanced down to see one of my cats eating and had an "Ah ha!" moment. Then I saw this video that confirmed it. Watching Chakra eat, and then drink some water, I noticed that both of my cats eat when hungry...and only until comfortable. They can not think about food for hours and hours. Some days they eat more, some days less. They follow hunger queues. They don't eat if happy or bored or sad. They don't eat by the clock. They are intuitive eaters!
We can truly learn so much from nature! We detached ourself so much from it and thatâs societyâs biggest problem
Hey - I love your videos, they've really helped me to take control over my eating habits and introduced me to some incredible recipes and ideas, so thanks so much! :)
I also wanted to say that INTUITIVE EATING IS NOT FOR EVERYONE. I read Intuitive Eating and at first I thought that my life had been totally changed. I started paying more attention to my levels of hunger and fullness which was great. Then I filled my cupboards with the foods I had been bingeing on for years and I ate as much as I could. The next day I woke up and ate as much as I could. Over the next few weeks, sometimes I fancied fruit or something healthier but more often than not I'd binge on the foods, thinking I was finally allowing myself to be free from their trap by giving in until the forbidden side of it wore off. This never happened, I put on around 2 stone and was bingeing more than ever. I don't know if I have a sugar addiction, a food addiction, am an emotional eater, pure binge eater or a combination of all of these things but it just didn't work for me at all. Any time I passed a bakery I'd let myself buy three donuts, any time I went past the shop I'd let myself buy whatever I wanted and although it usually meant fruit and veg too, it was also always lots of chocolate and crisps and sweets, none of which I seemed to be able to have the same control over in terms of my fullness levels, which I could with a nutritional meal/snack.
My body/taste buds, whatever it was latched on to the sugar/salt/fat and I piled on the pounds and spent a small fortune on what I thought was investing in a future where I was finally free of my addictions/bingeing. I don't know what would have happened had I continued on for another few months and if I would have eventually stopped wanting to binge/overeat these processed foods full of sugar and additives, but I really doubt it. To be honest the part about intuitive eating that tells you there's no difference between an apple and a donut is how a lot of people with morbid obesity treat food. If you're so far out of the binge/diet cycle that you've just been overeating processed and fatty foods for years then this advice basically tells you what you're currently doing is fine and you'll eventually not crave those foods anymore. So why didn't all the people on my 600 pound life eventually stop bingeing and start eating those foods in moderation? Addiction doesn't work like that. I think for a lot of people it very much is promoting a junk food lifestyle and telling them not to have any guilt about it without taking into consideration how out of wack you become when you constantly eat these types of foods for years and they are quite literally killing you.
There are absolutely no health benefits to the processed crap I was bingeing on, it was just my choice of drug to help me cope with my feelings of depression/inadequacy rather than cocaine or alcohol. I do think we should be letting ourselves have a treat now and then but in terms of filling our cupboards full of these awful foods - and that's what they are - there's no way you could convince me that a bag of Doritos/M&Ms with all those additives and E numbers are not awful for you, I just don't think it's a good idea for everyone, certainly not those who deal with food/sugar addiction and those who are very overweight.
I can see where you're coming from.
I think that intuitive eating, as much as I know about it, is a practice in tuning into the subtle sensations of the body (as with meditation) and distinguishing emotional impulses from intuition, to manage them in a more balanced way. I feel like balance is really key here, just as an instrument needs to be well-tuned, with a bit of tension but not too much. Also, inner-work is necessary, especially with food disorders and unhealthy tendencies (I'm fully in it here, really not easy).
Just a few thoughts...
This is the best video on eating I've ever seen. I thought I'm a healthy eater however I now realize that my relationship with food is ridiculous and stressful as I'm constantly forbidding myself to eat what I actually want.
It's so important to eat foods that our body loves and not always follow certain diets as they simply might not work for us. For example for years I was eating only wholewheat breads that are quite hard to digest for me but I was constantly hearing that white bread is bad so I wouldn't dare to touch it. Turned out my belly is too sensitive and eating a white loaf from a good bakery will be easier to digest for me and won't cause stomach pain later...
You are the reason I feel so positive and energetic and fulfilled!
Thank you Sadia :) youâre the absolute bestđ
This video literally changed my life... thank you so much. I'm so happy and shocked that it is so simple, yet overlooked
I have practiced intuitive eating most of my adult life. For me this is always vegan 90% unprocessed Whole Foods, as much my body craves. My intention is to feel energetic and full. One benefit is that I have never had a weight problem or major illness at 50+ years old. I easily get 13K steps per day. I watch some of my friends struggle with diets that sabotage their health and happiness. Intuitive clean eating is a lifestyle, not a fad diet. Your video was aesthetically beautiful and informative.
just your voice is so calming, yet this video struck me in a different way. im fairly young, and have been struggling with body dysmorphia and anorexia for a little over a year. no matter how many videos i watch telling me to just love myself, it never does anything. but i see your advice truly affecting me throughout my life, thank you for your kindness!
Iâve been eating MORE and losing weight ..Me and my channel are going plant based and I couldnât feel better about it! I watched what the health documentary and went vegan overnight and havenât looked back. It makes me so happy to recreate traditional meals using wholesome plant based options! Nutrition has always been my passion and Iâve finally found a direction I can run in!

I tried intuitive eating principles but I ended up gaining weight and falling back into a diet mindset to get the weight off. I'm glad you said its a process. We can't expect people who have developed disordered eating habits to have good intuition about how to eat and read their hunger signals. Your Chanel is very encouraging to me. Thank you.
I think this woman is really extremely wise and you can hear the warmth and kindness she has for herself through her words and in my opinion that is purely beautifulâŁïž
Ive talked with one of my friends yesterday about my problems with foods, my invasive thoughts while eating etc. She has the same problems as well. And one day later I see your video, and whats a sign, if not this. Thank you, Sadia.
(A wannabe vegan dietitian from Hungary)
Ur words make us see things we never paid attention...its true that making peace with our food is a true need and giving ourselves permission to all sorts of food is really important and thanx for the hunger& fullness scale ..and trust me all your videos inspire me so plz always keep doing such videos ...take caređđ€
Your message is so kind, caring and pure. Thank you for being a genuinely lovely person.
I honestly feel proud for already having this mentality without even realizing it. Extraordinary message Sadiaâ€ïžđ
I love your channel because, in my opinion, this one of the least judgemental channels that addresses foods and becoming vegan and health. It is almost like having your best friend giving you a hug and saying "It is ok. You are worthy and not a bad person. We are going to become healthy because you are worth it"

There is so much truth in that concept. I was on an All inclusive vacation two years ago and i told myself that i can eat there whatever i wanted. First maybe 5 days i tended to overeat with cakes and fries. But later on i started to enjoy the awesome spanish fruits, veggies and paellas much more. As a result i lost dome weightđ đ i love you, Sadia. You introduced me to veganism 2 tears ago and it changed my life. đ
I loved this video, I learned so much and helped me feel better with myself. I'm currently trying to make peace with food and starting a journey of learning how to love myself and how to treat myself with kindness, just how I treat everyone else around me. I want to have a long healthy happy life but my relationship with food, the way I combine it with my personal problems and how I have taken my body for granted has made me gain over 60 pounds in 8 years. My mental health, my physical health, my relationship with others and the views I have of myself have all changed. But I count with a loving family, specialists to help my case and your PDFs that I genuinely love. Thank you for contributing to my personal healing.
I feel that, I need to add your videos as my morning route, between the fact that you give super useful information, your voice is so soothing and motivates me to actually start caring. Also the way your videos are recorded, the shots you show us are amazing and super pretty. Thank you very much for being a constant motivation! Lots of love from Mexico
Beautiful video, interesting approach to a global concern, the misperception that certain foods are bad, but actually what is bad is the way we are eating them. Thanks Sadia.
Absolutely loved the ending touch where you take a bite of this and grab the apple! Very important and relevant topic, I'm so happy to hear your thoughts on this. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video! as someone who had eating disorder in the past, this is exactly the kind of videos that help me to stay the way of health and self love! Thank you a thousand times!
this video filled my heart and soul with so much love and greatness, because o struggled a lot with intuitive eating some month and even years ago, but decided to change this.
Your video remembered me to keep going and never give up on this journey to a happy and peaceful life 𧥠Thank you so much đ
Listening to you makes me so happy! Your charisma and wise words really speaks to me. Your videos are the best!
I agreeđ
I love , love , love your videos. The spirit of excellence in every project.
I found your channel 2 days ago and you have already become one of my fav youtubers.... I adore your energy and efforts to make the lives of others easier.... The printable guides you provide are super helpful.... Much love from India.... đđ
Well done. A much needed message in an age where YT videos on diet and losing weight have taken over for decades of damaging self help magazine articles/headlines helped by idolized photo shopped/hyper disciplined models and celebrities (under pressure to sell their body/soul) driving constant cycles of guilt/indulgence. At 52 I finally learned to trust myself and body a few yrs ago and that weâre meant to be whole not perfect. Im a student vs a follower and vegan plant based for life. Again bravo and thank you for teaching and inspiring common sense, self love and respect.
This video was wonderful. I have struggled with weight all my life and at the age of not wanting to focus on it anymore. I am trying to be HAPPY with me and concentrate on healthy. I enjoy your videos. Thank you for the great information.
Brilliant, calming video - so refreshing in my feed of recommended videos that tend to scream other messages about food. Thank you Sadia, Iâm fast becoming a huge fan of PUL after finding you recently đđđ»
You put into words all of the feelings that I have been experiencing over the last few months! Discovering intuitive eating has gotten me healthier that I ever thought, not just physically, but also mentally and I would even dare to consider myself a better human being. Fixing my relationship with food has freed up so much mental capacity and allowed me to enjoy and discover passions that I didn't even know existed. Thanks so much for sharing freely all the content you post on this platform :) you encourage me every time đ€
I have watched a lot of food and health videos and I have to say this is one of the most compassionate, empathetic, refreshing, peaceful and profound ideas represented here. Thank you Sadia. Your videos are beautiful and wish you all the best for many more.
I really love this.. I have been slowing moving toward being emotionally neutral toward âhealthyâ foods and âbadâ foods.. now I can enjoy everything I eat in moderation without feeling guilty :)
I just wanted to let you know I love your channel and the creativity you put into everything! I honestly get so excited whenever you upload
This is what I needed, thanks Sadia
The last few months Iâve been struggling so much with food. I catch myself pondering over what Iâll eat, when Iâll eat, how much Iâll eat every minute of the day.
Only recently Iâve been practicing âfood freedomâ
Another thing I always notice in your videos is presentation -even the cookie gets put on a pretty plate. I think it really helps to appreciate food more. I've eaten standing up out of the package, and it definitely isn't as enjoyable as sitting down and actually taking my time. Thank you for all you do!
I agree with the âno forbidden foodsâ mentality. It has helped me so much, where I used to eat the whole bag of chips, Iâm now good with a handful. A whole chocolate bar is now a couple squares. I also find myself more in the mood for fruits when I crave sweets and have started exploring different choices other than just bananas and apples, like kiwi and oranges and plums
ive always had an unhealthy relationship with food and i wasnât sure where to start n change it. this video is definitely so helpful! thank you đ
your voice is beautiful and soothing, and so are the things you say. thank you so much for uploading this. đđ»
Hi Sadia! Just wanted to say I started using the PDF this past week and I'm already feeling so much more comfortable around food. I found the hunger scale really effective and as I start to relearn my hunger/fullness cues. I also love the idea of nourishing your body and your mind, instead of labelling food as good/bad. Really enjoy your videos and approach to a healthy lifestyle!
You have grown so much over such a short time Sadia. I remember when you were just starting out. Now you have an audience of 2.5 million people watching
My goodness the universe is speaking to me today!! I really needed to see this video and thank you for the printable guide!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have completely changed the way I look at food, at myself, at my life. I finally stopped being scared by food and my imagine, I can't even explain the gratitude. Thank you Sadiađ
I started two years ago a diet, but i had a Problem with food even beforehand. I started a few months ago thinking about my disordered thoughts of seeing food as good or bad. Your Video really touched me and I wanted to thank you for it. I needed this message.
I can't remember a time when I was at peace with food or happy with my body. I remember my first diet was when I was around 7. - I will listen to the book (already have audible - sorry). Usually I would think this is impossible or just another fad but you I trust. I might give this a try although it sounds incredibly scary.
The book, which I read a long while ago, also emphasizes asking yourself how you physically feel when you eat certain foods. That chocolate doughnut loses its appeal to me when I realize how the sugar feels on my teeth, and how the energy burst/crash isn't serving me. And it does set me up for craving more of the same, which may not be the case for everyone. If I eat sugar, it's so much harder to eat it in moderation even though I know it doesn't feel great afterward. It just becomes 10 times harder to resist - the opposite of how habituation is supposed to work, as in the example with the chips. I can do chips that way; I can't do sugar that way. I guess that's what an addiction feels like?
Thank you so much for reaching out to those who needed a better understanding with food.
I am personally practising to have a better relationship with food, and intituitive eating really helps over the pass yearsâ€ïžâ€ïž
Your take on intuitive eating is so wonderful. Iâm excited to read this book. This type of eating is healing my damaged brain and body from years of diet culture, fad diets and eating disorders.
Iâve found that Iâm more effective at intuitive eating when Iâm working out regularly. The two habits feed and encourage each other for me. Itâs so shame free- itâs just nourishing and strengthening my body. I love it.
I really like this video! I have a terrible relationship with food. This is exactly what I needed to hear â€ïž
When add kids in your video's that automatically brings smile on my face and makes my day â€ïžđ
wow the timing of this video is perfect. I just bought the intutive eating workbook this past weekend and was beginning to work through it. I think your printable guide will accompany that perfectly.
Love you so much. This world needs more people like you.
Omg I really missed âTea Time Tuesdayâ style videos!!! I found them super helpful the past week đđŒ
i LOVE this i'll sens this to my whole family & friends thank you â€ïž
I just found you for the first time last week - Since then I have bought your book, watched your videos every day and downloaded your tools....in love, already.. I honestly want you to know that you are a powerful influencer and so pleasant to watch! This is what CZcams is really about...Thanks so much for all that you do, you are an amazing human đ„°
Your video is like a peaceful pill in a tressful day ( no matter what topic is it ). I watched this intuitive eating diet in a tedx video but i just let it go. Now i can truly believe in it. Thank you for being such a healthy and happy model for me
Your dance at the end of video when you eat was adorable, absolutely love it! đ
I grew up on: "eat everything on ur plate or no dessert" đđ who else?
it's problematic
We didn't have dessert after a meal at my house, but I would be severly punished for not wanting to finish my plate. I was yelled at, forbidden to go outside, to see my friends, forbidden to watch TV or use computer and always threatened to be and sometimes even be spanked. It was when I was 5-10 years old. Now, my main issue is "clean plate mentality". I also noticed, that I'm used to think that I am satisfied whenever I am at least 9, or even 10 on the hunger-fullness scale. It is such a discovery to find out, that I can also stop eating at 6 and feel great! And save money, cause I have leftovers for additional meal. Soooo, to answer your question, no, not me. I never got to eat dessert anyway:)
It was always a waste issue in my house. If I didn't eat it I was wasting it.. It definitely causes a complex that spills into life, saving things, not letting any thing go like it was a crime.
This is so toxic and problematic, because parents force their kids to stuff everything in just to be allowed to have more. My parents made me feel bad about finishing the whole plate and said things like âno wonder you look like thisâ - not ideal either đ
This happened in my family too although we didn't have dessert after a meal. But now my mom asks me to take whatever amount of food I want to eat for that meal.
I just want to say that I have been subscribing to your channel since the very beginning, and by far youâre one of the most amazing people out there. And I can confidently say youâre one of my very few favorite CZcamsrs. I love your energy and your soothing voice. Thank you so much for this videođ
This is the best video Iâve seen in SUCH a long time!!!!! I watched it yesterday afternoon and woke up today with a different mentality and I couldnât be more thankful!!
I really can't get behind this for myself, but I have an extremely addictive/compulsive nature. I prefer to leave junk foods at the store and that's what is best for me, because I have moved beyond the point where this is a psychological issue. If my weight goes up, my blood pressure follows which could lead to a stroke, etc. I'd definitely give it a try if my physical health health wasn't the problem. Great video, as always.
