how do you differentiate between gluttonous cravings for food and what your body wants/needs? Maybe I used to be able to differentiate them but I currently can’t I’m either starving or almost stuffed/stuffed

Chocolate. It's romantic and defies health/junk food categories.
Chocolate is a strong pic.
My reasoning for the jelly donut is that it’s so decadent and also thicc around the middle

Lasagna - because I have orange hair, and I'm a cat.
Lol - jk - I think I would most closely identify with a bacon cheeseburger. A bit salty in some sections, but consistent and savory. (Also round with a nice set of buns?)
Do you also not care for Mondays?

nothing makes you feel fat like feeling like sausage in your 2xl undies in 3xl shorts with your swollen gut sticking tightly to the front and sides of your 4xl shirt 🫣

I've been doing it for four years now and honestly it's one of the best things I've ever done for myself. The only downside is that it took a lot of wind out of the sails of my fantasies to realize that most people with healthy metabolisms won't endlessly gain weight by eating whatever they want. But it also gave me new respect for how hard a lot of gainers must have to work to achieve their results.
Some people have to work really hard for others they gain weight just looking at a cheeseburger just so happens I am in the later category not the former I think it’s cause my metabolism is so out of wack from cutting weight for all those years

I was just curious if anyone else on this site who isn't actively gaining considers themselves an intuitive eater? I've noticed the way that calories, food/cravings, and how a body gains or loses weight are usually discussed here. This isn't meant as a criticism at all, but it seems like more people understand these concepts through the lens of standard dieting wisdom than not?
Morbidly A Beast:
I’m so removed from diets and stuff at this point but I saw a tik tok diet person do a tiktok where they said most people who intuitively eat don’t actually “intuitively eat” but they just eat whatever they want, which absolutely that’s how I operate, but if you’re trying to lose weight or maintain a calorie deficit she explained it better. It was funny because she did it in the context of a cookout and she had like 3 hot dogs and heaping pile of potato salad while the other her (her actually just eating moderately)
Still don’t know what Intuitive eating pertains to
ForeverFFA:
Lol. A lot of people on social media like to mock or distort intuitive eating, but the premise is that diets don't work or they take up too much mental energy to be worth it. It allows people to pursue health but requires them to drop preconceived notions of what that looks like. The point that this tiktok woman missed is that the goal is for people to listen to their bodies (which can be really hard in the beginning) and practice gentle nutrition.
Here’s the video it was a YouTube short not a tik tok lol

I broke two wooden box springs before forking over the money for a metal frame that my mattress goes right on top of haven’t needed anything else since also wasn’t terribly expensive I’d recommend it if it’s time for a new bed!
