Thank you for sharing. These little mini-episodes when you go deep on one topic are so helpful.
Building the body trust is so important, and it seems like it can only happen with some experimentation when we’re first stating this new way of eating. In the beginning with my intuitive eating, I was trying to eat to the exact right point of fullness, but not too much fullness, and I was doing this kind of constant check-in throughout my meals, and it was its own sort of madness. For me, I had to get to a place of being ok with sometimes going past fullness and knowing it’s just a feeling and it will pass.

Thank you Kristi for sharing your thoughts and experiences. I think that is super common and usually not all that helpful in the long run.
Definitely trial and error and also I think about it as an ongoing practice 😅☺️
