I was talking to a client today about intermittent fasting. She asked me sincerely if it was okay for her to eat an hour early, or if that would "ruin it."
Of course not! I said.
I reminded her that her goal wasn't to be the best intermittent fast-er but to find a weight loss solution that works for her!
Getting emotionally attached to dieting the "right way" is so common.
But the guilt you feel when we can't stick to some restrictive diet (hello keto), doesn't inspire you to keep going. It isn't serving you.
When we were finished talking, she had decided that it works better for her to eat when she feels physically hungry. Even if she's not quite in her eating window.
And her decision to be flexible and kind to herself will help her stick to her goals.
Even when she isn't "perfect" (who is?).
