Can You Still Be a Foodie And Lose Weight?

I know that I love and adore food. I consider the Food Network porn for people like me. But the whole food and eating piece is loaded when you have a history of feeling out of control with food. Which as you know, I do.

One of the things I couldn’t stand about the old diet mentality was that it included eating things you didn’t like. I can tell you right now, I was NEVER going to be somebody who ate something I didn’t like. Why would I? Why would you? Bland or colorless in any area of my life is totally not negotiable. It always has to be beautiful for me (I did not say “fancy” or complicated mind you..).

So yes, you can absolutely still be a foodie and love and adore food and be a little obsessed and also lose weight. And the truth is, the foodies do really well with all that. You may as well make your peace with food and eating right now. You will never any happier with bland and boring than I would be. Shopping for food is still one of the most pleasant times of my week.

Come home to your senses- it’s where you will always be happiest if you are truly part of my Tribe of intuitive/sensitive/creatives.

Go touch all the fresh produce. Have a blast with cooking shows and cook books (LOVE them). I want you to eat beautifully and well. Entertain and show everyone how gorgeous and delicious food is without all the junk.

You just cannot continue with any form of deprivation and have anything good come of it. So grow some gorgeous herbs. Find something new to love at the farmers’ markets. Try a new recipe once a week. You can absolutely still love and adore food and eating. It will make you happy and it’s so much easier to get healthy and balanced when you love and adore the journey.

Love and every gorgeous colorful blessing to you-
