This blog post attempts to illustrate the difference between healthy eating and food consumption for weight loss. โฃ
โฃ
Firstly, let’s not stigmatise any food. โฃ
โฃ
There is no GOOD or BAD food. โฃ
โฃ
That’s just what we have been led to believe through societal norms around dieting & food advertising. โฃ
โฃ
Forget it! โฃ
Stop demonising food and you’ll no doubt begin to have a healthier relationship with itโฃ
โฃ
For sure…What we do have areโฃ
โฃ
1) ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐
๐๐๐๐ – full of micro & macro nutrients that support the daily functions of your body. The majority of these can support a weight loss goal as they will likely keep you satiated and not feeling too hungry. โฃ
โฃ
2) ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ / ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ / ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐

โฃ
So we could eat a high abundance of NUTRIENT DENSE FOODS and gain weight as we are not in a calorie deficitโฃ
โฃ
We could also eat more NUTRIENT SPARSE FOODS than the healthy stuff and lose weight because we are in calorie deficit.โฃ
