My content is not going to be suitable for everyone, so please use your self discernment before applying any video content in your own life. In this video, I dive into the complexities of feeling out of control around food, especially the challenge of distinguishing between hunger and appetite. Hunger is the body’s physical need for food, while appetite is the desire to eat, even when we're not physically hungry. I want to reassure you that it's completely normal to have an appetite when you're not hungry, and it's important not to get into a battle with these feelings. Instead, I encourage a more flexible approach, where you make conscious choices without guilt, allowing for freedom in your relationship with food. I introduce the "EARN" acronym as a practical tool for managing frequent appetite triggers. The "E" stands for "inquire" — asking yourself why your appetite is being triggered, whether it’s due to emotions, environment, or psychological reasons. "A" stands for "allow" — giving yourself permission to feel the desire for food without immediately acting on it. It’s important to tolerate the discomfort of wanting food without feeling like you have to satisfy the urge right away, especially when surrounded by constant food cues in your environment. The "R" in EARN is for "reassure," which is all about calming the internal dialogue and easing the stress around food decisions. It's essential to regulate your emotional reactions and avoid seeing every food choice as a high-stakes situation. Finally, "N" stands for "negotiate" — learning to negotiate between the immediate desire to eat and your long-term health goals. I share a personal example of how I use EARN in my own life, highlighting the importance of building trust with your appetite and approaching food choices with flexibility and self-compassion.
