I live in a house of 13+. No food stays, and I’m the lacto-intolerant veggie who is rather picky. I defensively eat whatever I can, the rest that can be stored I try to keep kept away in my room or in cabinets; not the pantry. Leftovers are free game, so I can’t ever feel comfortable or safe leaving things out. The only thing that aren’t immediately eaten are vegetables, so that’s usually my go to. This leaves me eating far less overall, cooking less and making smaller portions in order to prevent leftovers. It’s ridiculous, but it’s the only way of not spending so much on groceries for them to be eaten by everyone else who can eat anything they prefer. It irritates me to spend $20 on ingredients that are specifically fit for me, in a nice prepared meal for it to disappear from the fridge overnight- even after declaring no one to touch it. :( (I buy seperately from fam as to provide for my dietary needs, and I cook for myself and everyone, as well as pay rent and extra supplemental money when asked to help cover food and other costs).

I have another little advice for intuitive eating on a gluten free diet: When you crave something with gluten (for me it's been doughnuts recently), try to find out what your body craves. Is it the sugar, the fat, the yeast? Or maybe the jam or chocolate? Or maybe it's just the soft texture. And then just eat something thats the closest match (for example a quick homemade glutenfree cake in a mug with some jam on the top or a slice of gluten free toast with chocolate spread). When I had to start a gluten free diet, I also was really afraid what people might think and say. But in my experience, when I tell them I have to do it for health reasons, the majority of people are really nice and understanding. And even if they're not, please, please don't sacrifice your health and wellbeing just to avoid conflict. Some people can be a bit ignorant but I'm sure even they don't want you to be in pain just for eating something.

We must remember that snacking is an activity that can be done with anything edible. If you eat one granola bar between breakfast and lunch, that's a snack. If you eat a length of celery with peanut butter smeared on top an hour after breakfast, that's a snack. If you eat a single peeled hardboiled egg at ten pm that is a snack. Snacking does not have to involve consuming products from the Frito-Lay company.

But if you’re craving something like Lays, it’s okay to have it. Maybe bulk up the snack with some celery and peanut butter, but IE is all about not restricting or labeling foods as bad.

It's so nice to choose healthy foods, not from the pressure of wanting to lose weight, but because I actually crave them. And I love being able to have "junk" food in the house without binging on it.

I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing that, the struggle is real. Have you tried putting a portion - without weighing or calorie counting, mind - into a bowl, instead of eating from the bag?

I try to listen to my body's needs and hunger cues, i judge myself less for eating something "not so healthy". I have always felt skeptical about intuitive eating and was very much doing yo-yo dieting and my restriction-binge cycles just kept getting worse.

I’ve been trying IE for a long time bc of my mentality with the clean your plate issue. My parents were like plate soldiers handing out a plate of adult sized portions throughout my whole childhood and I was forced to stuff myself no matter what. I now put less than I think I want/need for any meal, knowing if I’m still hungry I can go back for a second plate which a lot of times I don’t. But if don’t put less on the plate I find myself overeating bc my plate still has food and I don’t want to waste it. This is a LONG process but it’s well worth the time and effort. As a mom I give small portions to my kids (using the hand method to portion out sizes for them and myself) and I never tell them their plate has to be finished but only that they’re full. Kids naturally eat smaller meals more often throughout the day and I make sure to work with that. LOVE your videos!!

I always forced myself to eat my entire plate partially cause of my parents and mostly cause of family members that would visit and my middle eastern family does NOT like wasting food. Now this has sadly gotten me into a mindset of genuinely feeling like a piece of shit if I don't eat every piece of food on the plate, which ends up with me getting EXTREME stomach aches, constipation, bad energy and mood etc. And it's really frustrating to then in the past few years see my sister side eyeing me for eating so much because she managed to lose weight even though she knows I have binge ED and body dysmorphia and PCOS AND fibromyalgia which makes working out harder, and my mom who shames me when I say I'm hungry when I just ate. It's not fun too already be negative about your own body, the way you eat, how much you eat and forcing yourself to empty a plate, something you learned from your family, and then suddenly get shamed by your family for doing the exact thing they taught you whilst simultaneously having an ED. I've tried intermittent fasting which did help me stop my binging for a short while, but I was always low energy and noticed I'd either starve myself or I'd binge in those few hours. Then I quit and had a good diet for a few weeks until I started binging again, then felt bad and starved myself with literally 4 boiled eggs in 1 day and cried myself to sleep cause my stomach was in so much pain and then binged for months on end again. This time intermitten fasting does not help and tends to actually make me binge more because I end up not eating enough throughout the day and then in the middle of the night grabbing a huge bag of chips and starting my binge. I'm really glad I found your channel and I think this might be a better solution for me, listening to my body. I've already started making changes in the past 3 months which includes removing dairy and as much gluten and possible as I realized it caused me inflammation in my stomach and focusing more on omega-3's which also helped a lot, I'm also getting used to making healthier snack choices, but these videos are helping a lot! Thank you for all this information and I'm excited to slowly but hopefully get better :) I've also been started to count calories again, but instead of counting it to lose weight I've been counting calories of dishes I really enjoy to make sure I eat ENOUGH in a day! I really hope this will help me in the long run and help me get a healthier mindset with food knowing I also ate enough

I´ve always been taught to clean the plate completely. Also not to ever throw food out and to eat at least six times a day. As a result I´ll eat anything about to go bad even if I´m so full it hurts. I´m trying to break this behavior and eat intuitively I´ve noticed that I eat less than half as often and a lot less than I did before. I feel so much better and actually have an appetite for both lunch and dinner and breakfast. Now instead of dinner being the main course of the day (as Its always been for me) I make more of an effort around lunch and breakfast as these are the times I´m the most hungry and looking forward to the meal. I love your channel thanks so much for this vid!

I still find these videos inspiring and when you mentioned how this is a journey, I found that so liberating. Like most things, I want immediate results, but I’m learning how patient consistency is how i’ll get there. Also, I could cry in gratitude at how you call-out diet culture. At one point I was AFRAID of oil as all the “healthy” thin people spoke as if it poison. Keep fighting the good fight.

Hey Abbey! I never comment on stuff but I recently found your channel and have started binging your videos during quarantine:) I love your positive attitude and the respect you have for other influencers you review on this platform. You come from a professional standpoint and seem like you truly care and want to help rather than bash people. That makes me happy:) I have been struggling with eating especially now with quarantine beginning and have enjoyed the educational aspect of your videos. I have realized that I am so focused on calories and weight that I haven't been eating a balanced diet. I find myself either nauseous/ not hungry or super snacky/not able to be satisfied. It mostly leans on the "can't eat enough" side of things but you've taught me tricks to get the right things in my body even if I'm struggling to get things down. Or if I super hungry that day and want to eat the whole pantry, how to satisfy cravings, and fill up while being well rounded and making healthy choices. As I've done this I'm slowly beginning to see my appetite balance out and I'm not feeling as sicky anymore. It feels so much healthier to find validation from your diet not from changes on the scale but from how your body feels:) I can enjoy workouts more and am reaching new strength and endurance goals. Its a journey but I love your vibe and your message. I don't even know you but you've quickly become one of my favorite content creators/youtube mommas. I love you and your videos!

I've been on a 2 year long journey with fitness and food. The idea of continuing food tracking that has been helpful for me seems unsustainable in the long term. I am so happy to find a KZfaqr talking about intuitive eating! I've heard of it but didn't feel like I could do it. I am not super restrictive. I eat what I like and pretty much when I want, but I measure foods to keep my portions in check. I am not a part of the population who has been dieting for years and years. I have been someone who eats to fulfill emotional needs rather than hunger. Now that I have a better idea of meal and snack sizes that make me feel full, along with some therapy breakthroughs, I feel confident that I can begin to practice intuitive eating.

Edit: I gained a lot of weight doing this. I've been this size before so I'm adjusting okay. I'm not gonna lie, gaining the weight was challenging. Emotionally and physically.

Holy crap, a non-vegan video I can actually watch! Lol. Anyway, do you think it's possible for your hunger/fullness cues to be permanently ruined by ED history? I've recovered a million years ago but my sense of hunger and fullness just isn't the same - I don't really have that "okay, I'm a little hungry, I'll probably need to eat soon" feeling anymore, I just go from not being hungry at all to being ravenous and feeling like I could eat the entire world. It's not really a problem because I'll just scoop a normal-looking amount of food on my plate and eat it, but the sense of fullness doesn't really kick in unless I've eaten an irrationally huge amount. None of the intuitive eating vids have really helped me, I just... don't have "degrees" of hunger like I used to. Is it possible to mess yourself up permanently? I can maintain my weight without counting calories so my food intake should be fine, it's just the hunger that's messed up. (Welp this comment is way too long, sorry!)

I feel this too, and I believe it’s a hangover from the influence that long since discredited people had in the early days of the KZfaq vegan community by promoting the mentality of needing to “smash in the calories” and “fat makes you fat” and “you can’t gain weight no matter how much you eat on this diet”. I share the need to always feel FULL as an emotional safety net. Although I’ve overcome the worst of it, it’s both challenging and concerning when these strong feelings of shame can be evoked over the simple pleasure of eating, and that this still holds such gravitas in my life all these years later.

I found that a great way to start to break the clean plate mentality is to give yourself very small portions. This works great at family dinners when you are serving yourself and sitting down. The idea is you eat the small amount of food giving yourself full permission to finish it and full permission to serve yourself more once checking in if you want it. Over time you start to learn what comfortable portions are for yourself. I now know about how much food to put on my plate, occasionally having to some left over and occasionally going to get more food.

Hi Abbey. I've been suffering from celiacs disease and lactose intolerance for 14 and 16 years. I was wondering if there is a biological reason for why I feel bottomless hunger for a few hours or days after being "unlucky" and ingesting foods containing dairy or, especially gluten? I have to admit that that "crave" for glutenous food is not something that I recognize in myself any longer. I find that I have "forgotten" about the appeal and even taste of these foods by doing as you said, placing them in the "non-edible" category. If I ever come across a gluten-free alternative, like a gluten-free doughnut, I consider it a rare treat. I'm choosing to see it as a blessing in disguise that I have to live a healthier lifestyle.

So my all in not only was for freedom from dieting but I was also curious if it would reset my metabolism and sure enough it has.!!! I am so excited to report I have more energy than ever.!! My meals sometimes are 2 or sometimes 3 a day. Sometimes I snack and sometimes I don’t and not only do intuitively eat what my body is asking but it also intuitively does intermittent fasting. Also, because I am eating to satiety I am not snacking after dinner nor bingeing a particular food!!!

If anyone is interested, the app Nourishly is free and has the satiety scale Abbey mentions in this video. It also has numerous features that support everything discussed in this video such as entries for your moods, thoughts, locations, and missions for how to stay on track. As someone with a history of disordered eating, this app has helped me immensely because it has NO calorie counting features. Its goal is wellness so it helps you eat more intuitively and helps you understand what may be triggering unusual food habits. It's all done in a very non judgey way too- it's simply pure reflection. Anyway, I hope this helps someone out there 😊
