Thinking about food all day is not normal.

Unless you’re a dietitian and it’s what’s you talk about all day with people! 😋

Otherwise, if you are constantly thinking about food like when you’re going to eat, what you’re going to have, how you can make it lower calories...etc. you are likely not getting enough food overall, type of food, or both.

Both physical and mental restriction can cause this obsessive thinking because when our bodies aren’t getting what it needs (ie: you’re dieting, following food rules, restricting...etc), it will send signals to the brain of what it needs 👉🏼 more food.

The good news? You can stop this obsessive thinking by letting go of your food rules. Not sure if you have any food rules? Check out my blog post What are food rules? Do I have any?

Becoming more in tune with your body and listening to its cues that tell you what, when, and how much to eat will help you develop a more positive relationship with food and your body.

When you are nourishing you’re body properly, those obsessive food thoughts will dissipate.

Are you willing to ditch the food rules?
