Yes and no! Intuitive eating allows for flexibility in our eating according to our body’s cues and desires. We will also take into consideration how we feel during and after eating a food, if it’s being eaten for emotional or physical reasons, and eventually the nutrients in a food. Many fear they will want to eat x,y,z food all day everyday, but when we look at these other factors of intuitive eating, that is not usually what our body feels good doing over the course of time.

Absolutely! We can take a food freedom approach with a variety of nutrition related medical conditions including diabetes, prediabetes, high cholesterol, food allergies or intolerances, etc… The state you live in may determine our ability to work together if you have a nutrition related medical condition. 

It depends where you are in your recovery journey! Though intuitive eating principles can be introduced later in recovery, they are not always the most helpful in earlier stages. You may need more structure and help getting your hunger cues back first. We can still work together in this case, so reach out and we will make an individual plan for you.

Intuitive eating is a weight neutral approach, meaning the goal is not to intentionally gain or lose weight.  Some may gain weight, some may stay the same, and others may lose weight during this process. We will instead focus on your relationship with food, and modifying behaviors to increase health (if that is your goal).
