Sometimes the biggest health myths are the hardest to unlearn.
One of the biggest health myths I believed for YEARS…
“Eat every 2–3 hours to keep your metabolism running.”
Sound familiar? I followed that advice faithfully.
- Breakfast
- Snack
- Lunch
- Snack
- Dinner
- Snack
I thought I was doing everything “right.”
Instead…
- I was constantly thinking about food
- I was always hungry
- My energy crashed
- My weight kept climbing
- I needed more and more caffeine just to function
Looking back, I see that my body was exhausted.
For the first time, I started learning something that completely changed my perspective…
Every single time we eat, our body has work to do.
- Digest
- Process
- Store
- Balance
What if our bodies simply need a little more time between meals?
I used to think feeling hungry every couple of hours was normal.
Now I realize always thinking about food isn’t necessarily a sign that your body needs more food…
Sometimes it’s a sign that something else needs attention.
This has been one of the biggest mindset shifts on my own health journey.
Have you ever been told to eat every 2–3 hours?
