My Method: of eating

What I've learned most this year is how much trusting in my own self and my own intuition will get me farther than anything else. i've accomplished so much on my fitness journey. And I'm still going strong.

I've battled with my eating though this whole year. Lots of ups and downs. The workouts have kept me flying, but whenever it gets down to eating, its still a little bit of a lost cause. What has definitely changed is the fact that because i've been working out i am more in tune with my body. And with every bad meal, I feel the effects now more than before. i feel how heavy I can get after a bad meal. Or how sensitive my stomach is to some foods. But its just about making the change.

I'm thinking that i'm going to try something new. Just like how i did with fitness. (no scales, just work out and love what you do). I'm going to focus on each meal, one at a time. Mastering them until it feels like second nature, like how it does to hop on a spinning bike. Then i'll move on to the next meal. And then i'm thinking i'll have certain days of the week where i focus on a specific nutrition. What that does is leave me freedoms still to eat what I want, but working on chipping at changing overall habits.

Today i'm starting with breakfast. Its the most important meal of the day and for me... it needs a lot of attention. Some days i'll still allow myself the meaty, eggy, pancakey options, but i'd like most days to be more like today's bowl of steel oats and blueberries. Lets see how this goes!
