Why am I eating the Metabolic way?
I keep banging on about metabolic eating but it really is just so the way to eat. After years of yo-yo dieting and dropping bodyweight quickly and then creating binging habits and anxiety over food and eating the wrong foods, I remembered my studies in Nutrition (four certificates), and amended some of my eating to how I believe food works for our body at a cellular level, not against our bodies. I managed to keep food as something I enjoy and didn't restrict myself too much. It made more sense to eat for fuel than to restrict, but I suppose the damage had been done. It used to frustrate me as a PT when clients would want to focus on "just dropping 5kgs but I don't want to change my lifestyle". When I found Kitty Bloomfield, Craig McDonald and Kate Deering, who have adapted Ray Peats research into metabolism and eating to fuel the body it was like "yes, this is what my beliefs were, before the fitness industry told us all not to eat full fat nor carbs&quo
