Why IIFYM Stopped Working for Us (and What We Did Instead)

from Not Just Gym Girls · host Marisa Silva and Vanessa Silva

In this episode, we share our transition from IIFYM to a mindful/intuitive eating approach. We share our own experiences in how IIFYM helped us, until it didn't and eventually became more rigid. We break down the key differences, common signs you may be stuck in a macro-focused mindset, and how we shifted our approach. This episode is meant to help you find a balance between structure and flexibility without feeling controlled by numbers.STRIVE FOR STRONG WEBSITE: https://www.striveforstrong.com/MARISA IG: https://instagram.com/msilvafitness_?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=MARISA COACHING LINK:https://msilvafitness.typeform.com/to/ptaEKYD8VANESSA IG: https://www.instagram.com/vanessasilvafitt/VANESSA COACHING LINK:https://form.typeform.com/to/hec1uTP0
