There is nothing wrong with indulging in something delicious every once in a while. Even if you are trying to lose weight or fix your hormones or energy or whatever you are working on.
The moment you start to bring the words never, always, can’t, not allowed, and so on into your nutrition plan vocabulary, is the moment you start to create a negative relationship with food, yourself and the concept of healthy eating.
Complete restriction over a long period = feeling resentful, rebellious, ashamed and guilty.
Which more often than not ends in an all or nothing pattern of being ‘good’ and the ‘bad’ when you go off the deep end and binge on everything sweet in sight.
Booo. This is no way to live!!
When you allow yourself to have high quality indulgences, that are properly balanced with vitamins, minerals, and macronutrients from all categories, you can start make peace with food and start living a healthier lifestyle.
