In this episode, we dive into Intuitive Eating Principle #2: Honor Your Hunger with Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor Rhonda Krick. We explore how diet culture trains us to ignore hunger, why primal hunger kicks in after undereating, and the various ways your body signals hunger—beyond a grumbling stomach. Rhonda shares insights on eating by the clock, differentiating physical vs. emotional hunger, and practical strategies to increase body attunement. We also discuss the many valid reasons we eat and how to navigate hunger cues if you’re on hunger-suppressing medications (yes, we’re looking at you, GLP-1s!).
Rhonda brings her expertise in nutrition, psychology, and body image coaching to this conversation, offering a weight-inclusive, non-diet approach to honoring hunger without guilt or fear. Whether you're struggling to recognize your hunger cues after years of dieting or wondering how to trust your body again, this episode is packed with practical tips to support your journey.
