Restrictions — Good or Bad???

Today, we are going to talk about a very controversial topic on Restrictions.  If you feel like being healthy and wanting to honor your body with health and fitness, but also don’t want to be mentally unhealthy with all these crazy rules; Should I restrict? Should I set boundaries? Should I follow this whole food freedom, anti-dieting, anti-weight world? Or should I just throw it all out the door?  This is a very important topic, especially that we’re entering the season of holidays.    In this episode of RealSOULutions: 01:58 – Should you restrict eating during holidays? 03:30 – Coming into the messy middle ground. 05:11 – The meaning of freedom 05:52 – The thing about anti-diet 07:27 – The bad and good restrictions 08:01 – Restrictions tend to have this bad connotation 09:30 – We restrict every single day 11:30 – How do you differentiate a good restriction versus an unhealthy restriction? 14:37 – Setting boundaries 16:40 – Two kinds of extremes 19:14 – Restrict out of self-love 20:58 – Intuitive eating 21:54 – Nutrition Privilege 24:24 – It is good for us to have health goals 24:39 – It’s okay to have restrictions 25:05 – What are some healthy restrictions or boundaries out of love that we can set for ourselves? 27:21 – Setting restrictions on how much food you allow yourself to have is a good thing
