Hi everyone!
I’m so sorry for the hiccups I’ve had. Let’s blame it on the computer. lol. I’ll be back next with the usual schedule. Until then, I hope this short post speaks to you.
Do you lead from your external life or from your internal world?
I’m not suggesting this is a black and white question, we’re all somewhere on this spectrum. You know how I’m often asked, “how do I eat on trips? During holidays? And do i suggest intermittent eating or intuitive eating?”
I know I used to wonder how I’d ever keep the weight off when my world falls apart? in celebratory times? when I’m depressed? scared? excited? bored?
In short, I was once looking at how do I make losing and maintaining a large weight loss possible?
I can tell you this: As I make food decisions, the answers come from my internal world. So whether I’m on a cruise, enjoying summer or navigating a health crises, I stay firmly on my eating plan and use every smart hack I can make use of to deal successfully with the crazy external (trip food, fast food, food porn from store, huge restaurant plates and so forth).
Overtime I slowly shifted from responding to external-cues to responding to my internal landscape.
How do you “eat with strength” and override your external? Three journal-writing questions to ask yourself:
- Do I lead from my internal or external?
- If I make plans to eat with strength, what is the moment that I shift to being influenced by my external world?
- What are three ways I can consciously shift to my internal direction?
That’s it for me, see you next
♥, Wendy
