Weight Loss For Women: empowering health, strength and nourishment #395 - The nuanced truth about intuitive eating vs structure with Peta Kelly
A few weeks ago, I interviewed @petajean on the podcast.
I just love her and her perspective. We yapped for so bloody long that I split it into two, so this is part two of the episode.
Something came up at the end of this podcast with Peta that I think a lot of women need to hear.
Someone in my community had bought her book and left a comment saying, doesn't Peta believe in just eating intuitively? Isn't that what she teaches? Why would she join a structured programme?
I love this question because it gets to the heart of something we get wrong about intuitive eating all the time.
Intuitive eating is the goal. Genuinely. Once you understand your body, once you have built the foundation of knowing what you actually need, you should be eating in a way that feels natural and effortless.
But you can not intuitively eat if you have no idea what your body needs.
And a lot of women who think they are eating intuitively are just undereating and calling it intuition.
Peta joined our program because she wanted specific results. She wanted to get stronger. She wanted accountability. She wanted someone to see things she could not see herself. And she is honest enough to admit that there is nothing wrong with that.
Structure is not the enemy of freedom. Done right, it is how you get there.
She also said something I think about a lot, that it is okay to want to be leaner, stronger, more toned.
You are allowed to want that. You are allowed to work for it. It does not make you vain or disordered or not aligned with body positivity.
It just has to come from love, not punishment.
This is part 2, if you haven’t listened to part 1 go back and listen to it first.
