It can feel daunting when you might have an ‘all or nothing’ relationship to food. Or you feel like you ‘can’t keep it in the house’ at this time of year, family gathers and food is shared and that’s a beautiful thing.

Here are some tips to not just getting through, but thriving in these holiday periods:

1. Eat something for breakfast and make it high protein and fibre and savoury, this helps with feeling full and satiated and not having a ‘sugar crash’

2. One weekend of eating doesn’t change your body, if you do over eat, don’t punish yourself the following day, eat like normal

3. Movement and comfort are so important, ask the family to join you for a nice slow walk after your big lunch, or take yourself out with the kids for a play in the yard. Also ditch the fancy outfits, and wear loose comfortable clothing so you’re not restricted and feel good sitting

4. Stay hydrated, this helps with digestion, and supporting your detoxification pathways

5. Rest, this break is exactly that, it’s my favourite part of autumn how many public holidays we have (LOL) so use this time to rest and nurture yourself, don’t set alarms, have daily naps and look after each other

The mood = green 💚💚💚

Such an easy way to incorporate ‘health’ into your meals, is adding colour, in the form of veggies.

A week in Melb done ✅ back to the coast and to (finally) settle into my new normal.

Melbourne sure knows how to do good food and service, I’ll never say any different!

I love a good week of balance, some food for fuel, some for joy, and some for no reason at all!

Can’t post everything, but comment if you need to know where a specific pic is from.

Are you eating enough daily?

The food dumps will continue in 2025!
I’m loving cooking with my family again, and baking in a new climate is proving to be VERY interesting, not pictured is me adding almost double the amount of liquid to these cinnamon buns. And the mango sago pudding was fantastic.
Cannot forget the salad from Taybeh’s cooking class
Lots of fresh crisp salads and not very hot food.
Also balsamic, honey walnuts are so amazing and I’m adding them to everything.
Also pizza at so so good

Your weekly reminder: rediscover a balanced relationship with food, where you listen to your body’s needs and embrace all foods without guilt.

Recently, I experienced a period of burnout, luckily I was aware of the warning signs and became able to make changes to reduce the severity of the burnout.

Recognising these signs is the first step towards addressing it. If you are experiencing these warning signs, there are steps to take to reverse it, and it is time to seek support and make lifestyle changes to improve overall wellbeing.

Simple changes like self care, setting boundaries, and seeing professional help can contribute to managing and preventing it. Reach out in my DMs for support!

A post I misread today meant I shared some inaccurate information that perpetuates a world of restriction and diet culture that I do not subscribe to.
So… I remade it to what I actually meant!

Eating healthily is actually just eating normally, but most people think eating ‘healthily’ is to be dieting or restricting.

Your body will not change from one weekend of enjoying chocolate, hot cross buns and other festive foods with the ones you love.

Take this long weekend to have a good rest, eat well, and look after yourself.

This weekend does not mean the new diet starts on Tuesday, it’s simply a matter of going back to what you did before and maybe with a few more mini eggs leftover!

Love,
Matilda
