"Choose foods that honor your health." I'm inspired. Thank you.
1. Ditch the calorie counting.
2. Hunger & Satiety: Eat when you are hungry & Stop when you are full.
*Eat Slowly (pause between bites, hold your fork in non-dominant hand)
*Be present (turn off your tv, put your phone away - notice the taste and the texture of your food)
*Don't overload your plate (remember: you don't have to eat every single thing that's on your plate if you are full and not hungry anymore)
3. Respect yourself (your body and your health)
*Choose foods that honour your health and your unique needs & that make you feel your best.
4. Give yourself permission (allow yourself treats sometimes as part of your diet - it's unrealistic to try to be perfect)
5. Every body is different.
Intuitive eating is definitely the only healthy way to lose weight in my experience. I have lost 40lbs doing this. No longer yoyo diet. Thanks for the video.
Wow!! Good for you! That's wonderful. I've heard great feedback from people eating this way xx
You opened my eyes to the importance of mindfulness eating. Thank you.
You're so welcome :)
Would love to see a video on your diet choices and why you eat or delete foods. I recently have chosen to be more mindful of my choices and not eat the seemingly healthy things that make me feel bloated or sick. For instance, I’m limiting corn and beef because I don’t feel good after eating them. But I will always drink kefir because it makes me feel great. Etc.
I love how empowering you are and how you reassure us that no ones perfect and to listen to our bodies. very encouraging!
THANK YOU for the reminder about beeing thankful for what our body does, instead of thinking more about how out body looks etc! I didn’t know what intuative eating ment, I’d never heard of the term, so thank you for sharing this term 😊
I think it's SO important and helpful to focus on what our bodies are capable of!! Glad you learned a thing or two from this topic xx
Thank you for another awesome video! I use to count my calories at times, and it's making me depressed. I used to think it will help me control my cravings, cause I stress eat, but, thanks to you, I'll never do it again. I needed someone to tell me these things ^_^.
Andrada-Maria Havasi same here, I know you can do it! Good luck on your journey 😊
Hi there! I'm glad I was able to help! One step at a time :) xoxo
Grayson J. thank you for being so nice and good luck to you too 😊
Great video as always, Meghan! I love the idea of this!
You are so encouraging, Meghan! Thank you for all of the helpful videos. I appreciate your genuineness!
Great message. Thanks for reminding us.
This is such a beautiful video and your voice is so calming!❤️ thank you so much for the insight!💕😊
your videos make me so happy! they're so relaxing and you are so positive and give really good advice.
It was such a relaxing and encouraging video! Thank you very much.
Great mentality! Completely agree with you and thank you for sharing🌟
Thanks for such an insightful video on intuitive eating. I've heard the phrase tossed around and I pretty much had a good understanding of it but you filled in any gaps. I think intuitive eating is the best decision I made with regards to eating......it's helped me stay on track and not fall into the guilt trap about what I'm eating all the time.
Love you're videos, keep up the good work! From Australia💕
Hi Meghan! I love watching your videos your videos are so easy to
Watch and so easy to understand thank you for all hard work uploading these videos. There awesome!
Hi there! Thanks so much, I'm super glad to hear that :D Thanks for watching!!
I just came across your channel today. I love your content. Especially the "what I eat in a day" and grocery haul. I also like that you eat well balanced meals instead of cutting out a lot of things that some people body need.
Beauty for Ashes I also love her grocery haul 🧡
Hello! Thanks so much! Glad to hear you like those sorts of videos :) I do my best to keep things balanced.
@@meghanlivingstone thank you, for your content!
@@meghanlivingstone may you make a video on what I eat in a day for healthy skin & also a what I eat in a day for anemia, please? Maybe a fall soup...
I just love your whole ethos to food and eating Meghan. It’s so balanced and smart. I’ll definitely be watching this video again to really absorb the message. Xx
Thanks so much!! Glad you enjoyed this one xoxo
Oh my. I love your content. Thank you for the tips.
Our bodies are indeed amazing! We are “fearfully and wonderfully made!” Psalm 139:14 Thanks for a wonderful video! 💜
I love watching your videos! I love your channel. Your videos are my inspiration as a small youtuber.
This is so true! It wasn't until I stopped stressing about food, that I got the body I wanted.
Thank you for yet another great video Meghan! I couldn't agree more with everything you said!!!
Thanks for watching Ursula!! xx
Thank you so much for these videos.
I watch them all.
Also I have a enlarged heart due to stress and I'm also a diabetic.
The receipts you show are really a big help for me.
Diabetes is something new for me, and now I need to learn some healthy grocery shopping tip as everything seems to be high in sodium and other stuff.
Beautiful and helpful. Thank you
I loved this so much! ♥️ thank you, beautiful!
I really needed this video right now in my life. Thank you for the amazing video! Just subbed to you and looking forward to more videos! :)
Hi Meghan, another great video thank you. I totally agree with allowing the odd treat. I find if i don't have the odd treat I think about it all the time. I eat 97% well and that works great for me 😁 Love from New Zealand xx
I love your channel ! I just recently came across it and you have helped me in so many ways! Thank you for what you do!!
Hey Evelen! I'm so so so happy to hear. You're so welcome! Thanks for watching!
I love your videos!
Thank you. Your videos have taught me so much and have helped me to grow as a human. Thank you so much for these tips, advice, and you are such an amazing, down to earth person. I love your channel.
Hi there! Wow, thank you so much for your sweet comment. Made my night! I am so happy to hear this! xoxoxo
this is amazing
Hello Meghan! I will definitely try to do this and I am going to show this video to my boyfriend who is obsessed with always finishing everything in his plate. His mother teached him that and although I try to change it maybe with your video he finally quits doing it 🤞🏼😊
I love you; you're so wonderful. Thank you!
Hi Meghan! I really enjoy watching your videos. I learn something new each time I watch them. You had mentioned food sensitivities. Have you considered doing a vlog on that topic? I have recently discovered that I have a sensitivity to wheat, but I am still trying to figure out what all that is about. I have eczema and noticed that rashes flare up after I have eaten manufactured bread. I am still hoping to see if I can tolerate whole grains and that the sensitivity could be from processed wheat. Any information you could provide on this or what my next steps should be on this journey, would be greatly appreciated! Thank you from Florida, USA
Thank you for another great informative video! I have never heard of this approach but it makes sense. I am definitely a stress eater and have been working to be more aware. It certainly is a process, but I know it will come more naturally as it is practiced consistently. I really appreciate how kind you are with your delivery, no shaming. It is a reminder to be kind to your self, that can be a hard cycle to break. I once had a teacher respond to the question "how are you?" by saying "every day in every way I'm getting better and better". That has stuck with me for years...it truly is a journey!
Hey Julie! It's absolutely a process and takes time. I think that's one of the most important things to remember - nothing ever happens overnight. And oh my goodness I love what that teacher said to you! What a great phrase to remember xx
Hi Meghan. I love your vlogs😍please send your videos with the correct subtitles.I missed this video😌Thanks🍀🍀🍀🍀
I love your videos Meg, could you make a video with tips about IBS-D? I. Take many antispasmodic pills and I'd like to have a better diet instead. Thanks!
I LOVE your channel soooo much
Very informative ☺
Thank you for sharing this we us. Can you tell us about your favorite books?
I started eating like this years ago, and it was life-changing.
That's awesome -- it really is :-)
I think this is one my bigger challenges. When I get into times of stress, which is more often than I’d like, I resort to comfort food and over eating. I have about 15-20 food sensitivities but the main ones being dairy, egg, gluten, rice, peanuts, almonds, pistachios, potato, corn, etc. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with the number of sensitivities and find it hard to find foods that don’t hurt my stomach. It’s a daily challenge for me and one that I’m determined to find a solution to and be more respectful to my body. I love your tips and think I need to incorporate them into my life!
Hi Kristen! Oh boy, I totally feel you on the food sensitivities. It can be quite the journey finding what works best for you, but you'll get there! One step at a time xx
Kristen, I have a TON of them as well and like to turn it around, keeping a positive list and adding to that ^^
I love this! However, I am someone who deals with really intense sugar cravings and am coming off of a year long restrict and binge cycle. but i'm struggling to find the balance between not restricting my sugar intake but also not eating M&Ms every single day. Do you have any advice for this?
On the point about the mindfull awareness of being present, we do a hygge meal time. No electronics and enjoyjng the conversatikn. I'm a weird Auntie aparently haha because i dont have the tv on when we are eating. Also, i dont tell my niece she has to clear her plate, just to eat until she is full. But that comes from a weird but now healthier relationship with food 😊
I've heard of hygge before but I don't know too much about it! Love that though - turning off electronics and actually enjoying the conversation of those around you is key :)
I so want to be an intuitive eater. I just can’t seem to shake the diet mentality or feel good about myself when I look bigger than the size I like to be. I don’t have the pep in my step or the confidence when I gain. My clothes don’t look or feel good on either.
Your channel is so underrated. New subscriber here.
Thanks so much Monica! Happy to have you here!
what food sensitivity do u have????
Hello Meghan.
Great video and tips, really enjoy it! I have a questions and would like to know your opinion, i recently having weight loss but blood test said that i'm normal. It is something wrong with my digestive system? Btw i have gastric history and also my body feels so bloating, really appreciate if you could share something thank you
Probably you're not absorbing food properly, that will cause the bloating and the reduced intake. Try drinking a glass of water with a tablespoon of baking soda in it first thing in the morning, if you don't burp pretty heavily in the next few minutes you're probably short of gastric acid which could cause this. If that test is fine, you might have to look on
Thank you Meghan, I found this such a helpful video... was it bad that I was watching it while eating lunch? :-)) I've just returned from a late break to Greece and feel so super fit and healthy on my return... why? Well, the amount of walking I did was so much more than at home (and there were a lot of steep inclines). I also didn't snack in between meals, didn't eat so much chocolate or crisps, just had a light lunch and ate out for dinner with an entree and a main. I have honestly lost weight, but didn't once feel deprived. However, now I'm back, I seem to be slipping back into my old ways which isn't good. I will be watching more of your videos to give me some inspiration... best wishes from London xxx
Hi Eileen! I'd love to visit Greece someday, I hope you had a wonderful time (I'm sure you did!) I know what you mean about coming back home and slipping back into habits -- I remember feeling the same when I visited France a few years ago. I walked SO much more than I normally would. Thanks for watching xoxo
So nice of you to reply. That's made my day! xxx
another great video! :)
just out of curiosity--do you buy your nuts and seeds salted or plain? roasted or raw? Thanks!
Hey there! I usually buy them raw/plain :)
Do u think intuitive eating is a good option for someone who is already obesse and has diabetes, high blood pressure etc??? Or should i start by dieting first to get my health under control and then start trying to eat intuitively
Hi there! Great question :) Remember that reaching and maintaining an ideal weight means long-term, sustainable lifestyle changes instead of short-term diets. It would be a great idea for you to work closely with a practitioner to help you get on track so you can rule out any imbalances, but it's never too early or too late to begin integrating some of the principles of intuitive eating (such as being aware of when you're hungry and full). Big hugs to you!! xoxo
One of your best!
Wow thank you! :D
how you straight your hair ?
I use a flat iron :)
What do you do if your friend or family members you live with don't respect their body?
😀
Im 54 years old i have never known how to eat properly i don't know when to stop if my stomach is hurting or making noise i still eat more Im desperte i need help💖
The Science of Being Well by Wallace Wattles brought me here
yh! yo dont deserve any dislike view
Lots of negativity for counting calories, but there is a positive side though, at least for nutritional beginners like myself. I liked the math, that I knew what my body burned in calories in a day doing nothing and if I stayed below that number, those numbers added up and when the number reached 3,500 calories, I would lose a pound. This process became a game to me, how I could eat the most for the lowest calories. That naturally led me to salads, lean meat, fish, whole fruit, etc.... I ate whatever I wanted, as long as it was under the amount I set myself for weight loss. So for beginners, it is a great education. Good food is naturally good for you and helps maintain a healthy body weight. Why eat a bag of greasy chips that are 1000 calories and my limit for the day OR eat a huge delicious salad, fruit, meat, etc? I crave those now and can trust myself. After I achieve my goal, I will come out with a good education and can stop counting because visually and in my body, I know what is right for me. So counting is a good way to start if you have no idea what your choices can be. Thanks for the tips. Love the vid.
Pretty like a dolly
my food will get cold if i wait 20 mins to finish it lol
I need to stop yt ..but i cannot
