How To ACTUALLY Eat Mindfully | A Dietitians Tips + Tricks | Emily DiDonato + Marissa Meshulam

[@tatyanamatveeva1066]

it's so key: how much mental space these thoughts take up. young women could have the cure for cancer in their back pocket and instead, they are surrounded by info that tells them to be spending all their time and mental resources thinking about weight and body changes and the scale...we do all need to undo this.

[@BLara-rf4xc]

Completely agree, so many women and girls could have so much potential. Instead we are conditioned by societal standards, the media, advertising and beauty standards to focus on our appearance constantly. Which takes alot of time, energy and money when that could be spend on more important things

[@dominiquehayduk9692]

I almost didn’t watch the video because I thought “oh no, another food video on KZbin with crazy dieting etc”, but gosh was I pleasantly surprised! What a healthy conversation! ☺️ And it’s so awesome that you asked a nutritionist to participate to get the science straight- there is soooo much BS regarding eating on the Internet and quite frankly, we need more voices like this out there! Good job, Emily!

[@pinkfabulous248]

Yes it’s so helpful, I’ve learned new things. 🤗

[@colettegoh3182]

I agree, what a positive and intelligent conversation. Great actionable tips (beyond drink more water)! Hahaha

[@carolinecusinato7327]

@@colettegoh3182 drink more water is a great tip Emily saved my life with this advice I have so much energy now and vitality my colitis is all gone now my kidneys are so much better it feels like a miracle and my brain feels so positive so it's great advice and I'm so grateful for it I sleep better than ever after my PTSD I have a different life now and it's a good one thank you Emily xx

[@antolml13]

As a fellow dietitian, I am thrilled that this has become more of a public topic! This is such a great way of listening and being in tune with your body instead of following those new diet fads!!! 5 thumbs up, Emily!!!!

[@rawwbenn]

My favourite habit I've developed over quarantine has been meditating 10 minutes every evening before dinner. It's an AMAZINGLY grounding practice that allows me to arrive to my dinner with so much presence and gratitude. Psychologically I also now always look forward to meditation because it's become connected to delicious home-cooked food make with love. Thanks for the inspirational vid, Emily! Love what you stand for xo Robin

[@gingervogel8671]

Wow I am so glad that a mainstream model is sharing these types of resources. Thank you for not pushing diet culture. Thank you for sharing intuitive eating with your viewers. You are doing so much good in the world by doing this.

[@MH-rq3jr]

Oh My God Emily, You look so so beautiful. You are glowing. Being someone who constantly deals with dull, acne scars skin, Your skin is a dream and this quarantine hasn't made it any easy. I have recently made a HUGE shift to my diet and really trying every day. I spent so much money and energy on skin care products that simply did not do anything. It was exhausting to not see desired results after trying so hard. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a video on what you have been eating/drinking lately and also include a skin care routine displaying your top favorite skin care products. Some of us would really appreciate it, I am confident I am speaking for many right now. Thank You, God Bless You

[@bobfryfish]

She has multiple videos on what she eats and what she puts on her skin...

[@suharidari]

Dear Mony, imho, you should consult a doctor and clarify your hormones, hemoglobin. I was suffering with the same things and no diets\ cosmetologists\ scin care routines could help... Only seeing a specialist cleared the air, the endocrinologist , in my case. Wish you all the best ! Take care!

[@connyhansson3567]

She used a retinoid prescribed by her dermatologist. This is THE number 1 reason her skin is glowing and even in texture. Stop wasting money on skin care over the counter that doesn’t work. See a dermatologist, use a simple cleanser and a simple moisturiser and always always use a SPF. These steps are all you need. But I can promise you that Emily using a retinoid is the most important step in her skincare

[@anacarmes]

She has said that she naturally has good skin!!! I agree with someone else saying to go to a dermatologist and get professional advice.

[@sobean9309]

@@suharidari how could the endocrinologst help you? would you suggest going there over seeing a gyn for hormones?

[@essjjae]

I love this so much! I have been seeing so many diet trends, especially during the beginning of quarantine, that really messed with my relationship with my body and with food. I thought I was being healthy by subscribing to these diet trends, but one day I had a 3 day long stomachache and was bloated the entire time. That’s when I realized that even though what I was eating and doing was deemed “healthy” by society, my body was rejecting it. That happened a few weeks ago, and ever since then, I’ve been trying to really listen to my body. It’s been both a learning and an unlearning process. Thank you for having this important conversation and for sharing it with us all!

[@alexandraevans4631]

this was so insightful and helpful. i’ve been trying to re-frame my thoughts around eating and practice mindfulness in general and i’m so glad emily is putting content out here like this and having these conversations.

[@Sara-tp6zd]

it's crazy how I relate with you on how you think about food and excersise, specially when you said at 16 I discovered I could manipulate the way I look with food. thank you so much for sharing and thank you to Melissa for all the information 🙌

[@sarahgross4650]

I just learned so many helpful pieces of advice! I never quite understood mindful eating until now, and I love the way it counters diet culture. Thank you both for this!

[@AMELIAANN]

THIS IS SO INFORMATIVE 👏🏼😍 I’m obsessed with the mentality Marissa has around food. That 5 min walk idea is actually so smart! (I also totally thought you were Margaret Qualley from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood at first)

[@carolynevans1580]

Great video! You should make this a series! Well done!

[@farida897]

Great conversation. Thank you for this. Both you questions and Marissas answers/tips are great!

[@jennysheets3763]

Loved this video! Would enjoy a similar video where you talk to an expert about the importance of weight training (many women just do cardio) and how it affects female bodies positively as we get older (and also at any age)!

[@ayanamariemia]

I didn’t think I was going to watch this whole video, but I watched it until the end. This was VERY informative! I found myself saying to myself, “yeah! That’s what I do!”

[@camiladeoliveirab.]

I really enjoyed the conversation, it was very informative and necessary. Thank you, Emily! Would love to see more videos in this format, to bring people to talk about specific topics.

[@allisonshimonski9399]

All awesome advice thanks Marissa and Emily for having her!

[@paolaherrera2874]

Thank you so much ! I really enjoyed watching this video, it made sooo much sense and as a young adult focusing on what feels good and fighting against diet culture and what society has taught us. Thank you for using your powerful voice to create AMAZING things like this.

[@kasiowelove1]

I’ve missed you TONS Emily! I’ve been binging your old videos like crazy recently (and we even worked out together a couple of times! :)) and I’m sure I’ll find tons of useful information from this new one!

[@audrey_023]

Thanks Emily!! Such relatable content and always such a joy to see you ❤️ Please make more videos related to nutrition, diet culture, training, and everything health-related. Also, thanks for bringing an expert!

[@su-yi8392]

What a lovely and informative conversation you ladies had! I loved all the topics you guys covered (from the habit loop, to sleep cycles) and the way you conveyed all the information in a clear, concise and casual way! Definitely learned so much about being more mindful around food and wellbeing overall from this episode, thanks so much again Emily and Marissa. Love from Malaysia 💙

[@TheShahnoorKhan]

Loved this chat Em! It’s good to hear these conversations and feel like you’re lot alone when it comes to growing a better relationship with food and our bodies! 💞✨

[@shahrzadnuban2862]

Excellent subject, useful for everyone and awesome presentation:)🌹🌹 Thank you both❤❤

[@mariajhazmine136]

I love that this video is more about being kind to yourself and your body. Thanks for sharing this, Emily and Marissa! ❤️ I've learned to change my mindset about food and felt more positive about my body 🥰🥰🥰

[@amandasteinberg7132]

Thanks for being vulnerable and for bringing in an expert in the registered dietitian and nutritionist space to educate us on food and diet culture!! So helpful and educational.

[@annapj3032]

This is EXACTLY what I needed! The exact same thing happened to me during the confinement. This video is super helpful! Thanks for sharing Emily! ❤️

[@marklagrone6824]

Great show...learned much from your guest. Proud of you.

[@mialimentoesvida]

This video is amazing and I really like her approach. Thank you Emily for doing it, if you do more videos about this topic I think is extremely helpful for a lot of people. Food is life and trying to follow the "rules" for "good" or "bad" food is exhausting. I noticed how it did the complete opposite to me that my attention actually went far away from truthly giving the attention and loving care to my body. Thank you both

[@Sincerelyprisca]

This was informative. Thank you so much for sharing. Needed this 🤗❤️

[@margaritakorzhuk9141]

I have such a unhealthy relationship with food and this video just calmed me down and gave me a bunch of great tips. Thank you!!

[@pamelaalvarado463]

This makes sense! I´m always eating Halo Top and many different substitutes and I need a lot to make me fill satisfied. I would love another video with more topics like this. Nutrition and fitness but with experts. Like, is it better to do cardio or weight training? What about carbs? How to have a healthy diet without following a specific diet such as keto or paleo or plant-based. Thank you Emily!

[@dreamsdocometrue33]

I think she covered that in this video. It's called intuitive or mindful eating. Let go of all those "rules" and listen to your body.

[@myndhagray2378]

Such a good point on freeing up space to tackle important things/focus on meaningful things in our life. 🧡 16:00

[@kaylabruner1045]

I'm starting a Master's in dietetics next year, so this was right up my alley! Thanks Emily! xx

[@jillanderson9962]

this was so helpful! it really talked about the emotional aspects and the unhealthy habits and beliefs we have about food and how to change them. thanks for putting something out there that is actually about how to be normal and healthy!

I don't have anything specific I'd like to see from you, I just love the content you put out where you tackle an issue with substance in an approachable way like you're doing with this video. Also the videos you film with other models etc always has a great conversation to it too.

[@ebathija]

Awesome conversation. Thank you so much!!!!

[@juliakochuparampil8599]

Such a good video, changing mindsets is so important. This video came at a perfect time as I just started working with a dietician to make smarter choices and eat more mindfully

[@AbbyBirdsell]

PLEASE share more like this!! I watch your videos as motivation because I want to model and be an actress and I want to see what models do in a day, etc. But it’s very easy to watch you and think you are so perfect and put together, and you only eat healthy and you do everything right, so hearing that you also struggle with similar things that I do is soo refreshing and relieving. Even when you did the closet clean out, so relatable! Thank you 🙌🏽

[@youlinesjohnson311]

Love it! I gave up dieting a long time ago and that was one of the best decisions of my life.

[@elenaneamtu21]

Thank you for this video! I found myself (mostly in those crazy times) that I crave chocolate and crunchy snacks, and I knew that on a deeper level was something emotional that kept me going back to unhealthy habits... this give me the info to close this chapter and to start a healthy new one.

[@barigell]

Excellent episode, Emily! Thank you, both.

[@the-presence-connection8176]

I am so grateful to you for being such a good role model. There is so much dangerous stuff around food and selfhood here on youtube and everywhere else and I so appreciate your transparency and you getting an actual expert to talk about this. BIG thank you!

[@DreamwalkerTenesha]

This makes so much sense. Thank you ladies for sharing this information!

[@simonanolivari9942]

Very interesting conversation. I liked the suggestion to think twice about your emotions and if you generally turn to food when you feel in a certain way, you could try to assotiate that emotion to a different action

[@viviannejagt]

Wow! This was so helpful and definitely appreciate this video! I really liked how the video was more in depth and the format with the calm, focused sit-down and getting some expert opinion as well. Awesome that you are being open with your challenges and just being such a great example and inspiration. Thank you Emily!!
