The Effects of Intuitive Eating on Body Appreciation and Dietary Restraint in College Females

"A 5-week Intuitive Eating Curriculum created by a Registered Dietitian, Kaylee Frazier, will be used. The creator of this curriculum was contacted for permission and the curriculum was modified for use with college women.~The goal of the program is to challenge and eventually shift participant's mindset from the traditional diet culture towards a way of eating that is driven by their unique bodily needs. Content will focus on training participant to listen to their internal body cues for hunger opposed to restricting or eliminating foods. A list of intuitive eating principles and ways to incorporate them into daily routines will be provided to the participants throughout the sessions, coupled with homework assignments, journaling, and exercises to be completed before subsequent sessions."
