EATING POST-SHOW

In my opinion, it’s less about what you eat & more about why you eat, how present you are with food, & how much you can not just listen to your body but respect her too.

I was very hungry the weeks leading into my most recent show. I found myself thinking of food more which I could accept given the circumstances rather than freak out about it.

After my show on Saturday my intention was to enjoy the experience.

We went to my friends’ fav Chinese food place which is known for th.eir soup dumplings

I have never had one before (old me would’ve never risked going someplace & eating something I might not like!).

We ordered all sorts of different items.

An old version of me, pre 2018, would have literally stuffed myself silly until the food was so high up in my chest.

If you’ve been there, you get it.

Binging always left me feeling horrible.

Eating so fast because I wanted to get as much of everything in as I could.

It was scarcity mentality.

Now? I’m intentional. I dish food onto my plate bits at a time, pause, drink glasses of water, make a conscious effort to listen to my body, & stop before I’m full full.

I let myself eat to satiation that is higher than what I’ve been used to in the weeks of meals leading up to the show but not overly far.

I engage in conversation & focus on how the food is nourishing and replenishing me to recover & fuel after so much work!

It’s important to enjoy yourself but remember, enjoyment is better experienced with comfort.

Once you go over a certain amount of food it can rob you of the experience.

It can be hard to put your utensils down, especially if everyone else is still eating but I have found my eyes are bigger than my stomach at that point & it’s much better to sit back & tell myself I can have more food later if I’m still hungry & that there will be leftovers I can enjoy in another sitting but now is about relaxing so my body can truly get what she needs from the food without overwhelm.

The key is to bring connection & presence.

Focus on your senses, how your stomach is feeling, the pace you’re going, & how engaged you are in the experience.
