Full vs Satisfied

Eating is not just about feeling FULL.

It’s about feeling SATISFIED! 😄

🌟There’s a difference.

Full = a physical sensation.
Your belly could feel full but you may not be satisfied.

Satisfied = a mental sensation.
It’s about feeling GOOD after eating! You feel nourished. You may or may not feel full, but you do feel satisfied and are not feeling like you still need something more.

💫 Shooting for satisfaction means you’re less likely to overeat or be preoccupied with food between meals.

👇Tips for feeling satisfaction after eating:

🍽️ Eat a combo of protein, carbs and fat…
Not necessarily all the time, but it does promote satiety and satisfaction.

🍽️ Ask yourself what would really taste good to you…
Maybe you have a “balanced” meal that would fill you up but to make it more satisfying you decide to add some flavors like goat cheese, salsa, guacamole, fresh herbs or butter.
Or you decide some chocolate or a brownie would really round out the meal. Have it! 😋

🙂 Allowing pleasure with food = Satisfaction = Nourishment =
A healthy relationship with eating!

We need both NUTRIENTS AND PLEASURE with our food choices…
Aim for a combo/balance of BOTH! ⚖️
