When I say there is no one size fits all way of eating, the “Everything in moderation” way of eating is no exception. 😅 ... Ideally we could all eat everything in moderation without going ham. Things would be simple, straight forward, and non restrictive, but unfortunately moderation can be a bit hard to navigate for some. Especially at the start of a fitness journey or if you struggle with emotional eating😬 ... There is also the possibility that things can change over time as you improve your relationship with food. It all depends on where you are at, and your individual needs. - Some people do great with everything in moderation, and some people do well with a way of eating that does have more restrictions because they do well with having clear guidelines. This is how keto, paleo, Whole30, can end up being helpful for some in the beginning as a kickstart. ( I am not promoting this I’m just giving examples ). 👀 don’t come at me. 🤣 ... There are times I have had the best of intentions to eat all things in moderation only to find myself at the bottom of a bag of chips having told myself I was only going to have one serving... or that I was going to bake a dozen cookies and only eat two. HAHA. I’ve done this more times than I can count. 😅 ... So that being said- I am not great with moderation 😂 these are things I only have when I am with friends or for special occasions. Perhaps this is my individual definition of moderation and everyone has their own definition of what moderation means to them! 😁 - Perhaps the trouble is defining moderation and how that can be different for everyone and can take some time to figure out. - I am not saying “everything in moderation” is bad, and I am not saying restrictive diets are good, I’m just saying be mindful of what is, or is not working for YOU. ❤️ - #everythinginmoderation #moderation #health #fitness #diet #weightloss #fatloss #emotionaleating #fit #mentalhealth #ftm #ftmfitness #food #eating #calories #sugar #chips https://www.instagram.com/p/CEXf1JpsYuH/?igshid=h7ys55trprtk
