Eating Like a Normal Person
“I don’t want to think about food all the time… I just want to eat like a normal person.”
Have you ever said this to yourself?
Let me ask you this…
What is normal eating?
The simplest answer is that you just eat when you are hungry and you stop when you’re full.
Does that sound hard? If it sounds hard for you too, I get it… it sounded impossible for a long time for me.
Because I would be eating and often KNOW I was not hungry… but yet keep eating.
Normal eating is simple… but it’s not easy.
It’s not easy because you have a real problem.
And it’s not with WHAT the food is.
The PROBLEM is all your THINKING going on in between when you’re body is hungry.
Thinking like…
- Is this healthy?
- Is it bad for me?
- Is it time?
- Will I hurt their feelings if I don't eat?
- I don't want to feel bad right now.
- I'm tired and need a break.
- I need a treat.
- A little won’t hurt.
If I could wave a magic wand and erase your diet conditioning and all the past thinking, would it be hard to know when to eat? When to stop? What to eat?
You know, like how a baby eats… it’s really hard to make a one-year-old eat more than it’s hungry for. You try to overstuff a kid and you’ll either have a screaming child or a really big mess.
Nope, it’s not the eating… it’s all the thinking that trips you up.
You'd start waiting to eat until you're hungry without WORRYING you'll get too hungry.
You'd stop eating without the FEAR that you didn't get enough or the GUILT you can't finish.
You'd just eat food. If that food made your body feel miserable… you wouldn’t eat it again. If you felt great you'd eat it again.
The diet industry has WAY overcomplicated things.
They want you to believe you have to eat the “right” foods, do the “right” exercises and find the “right” timing.
Losing weight is actually really simple.
It comes down to three things you’ve heard me talk about before…
- Eat a little less (no, it doesn’t have to be a lot)
- Eat MORE food closer to God’s hand’s than men’s
- Move your body
Stop hopping around from diet plan to diet plan getting more and more confused. And, the more you quit crazy diets the more hopeless you feel that anything will work.
Instead, get back to simple… get back to the truth and how God made you and your body to operate well.
I teach commonsense, science-backed, biblical weight loss. You need BASICS; not tricks. You need mindset changes, not food lists.
