What is your 'fullness setting' default?
Do you eat until your tummy feels 100% full? 90%?

This week, WhyPowered coaching clients are tuning into their hunger and feelings of fullness to step out of patterns of 'over-filling' and see more progress in returning to their happy weight. They are aiming for 85% full and being satisfied with just a bit less.

We say NO to diets and deprivation and YES to listening to and trusting our bodies.

Reminder:
Most of our habits are learned and unconscious. We can unlearn, bring default settings into a more mindful space and set a new way of being. 🙌

Keeping you and your heslth on your daily priority list is never selfish. It's self-preservation that radiates to all your relationships. 🙌
Keep showing up for you and solidifying your self-care habits. No matter where you are in life, you can make your default setting one that supports lasting energy and vitality. 🙌

The best diet for a healthy lifestyle isn’t about deprivation. It’s about nourishment. When you fill your plate with whole, vibrant foods most of the time—and allow room for flexibility—you create a pattern that lasts.
Forget the word “diet.” Think healthy lifestyle. That’s where real change begins. Explore more in my latest blog ...

Sharing these wise and encouraging words from WhyPowered client friend Jean who has maintained her 125 lb weight loss transformation for more than two years:

"I know how frustrating it is when you feel like you’re doing everything right, but the scale doesn’t seem to understand that. 😠 It may help to stay focused on what your ultimate aim is. My main goal is to live a longer, healthier, happier life (and be able to hike vigorously with my daughter again!). I used to think that losing weight was the most important thing, which is probably why I would lose a bunch of weight then reward myself by going back to eating highly processed & sugary foods. Of course I’d eventually regain what I’d lost and more. Now I realize that weigh loss is a means to an end, not the end itself. I think that’s why I can now leave the grocery store with bags full of veggies, fruits and foods with minimal to no sugar and salt rather than candy, cookies, cakes, etc.

So if the scale seems to stall or betray me, I think about what I’m doing or not doing to be my healthiest self. Then I try to tweak my actions and go back to focusing on the basics.

That’s a long way of saying don’t give up! Focus on being your healthiest self ❀"
