Are we emotional eaters? I'm curious why we eat too much or too often or too unhealthy. What is your story?
What goes through our heads? Do we give ourselves permission to do it?
I hate the way my body looks and my clothes fit. My cholesterol is sky high. I'll even have these conversations in my head as I eat. "I don't care" is the gist of it.
I decided to exercise a whole bunch, and have done it for 12 weeks. Maybe then I wouldn't have to face my eating habits. I have cut back some on eating bad foods, but evidently not enough. My weight loss has stalled for weeks.
I love food. I love the taste of it, the smell of it. When my family gets together, we eat. It's how we get along best. I love eating out.
I was at the store yesterday. My husband asked me to pick up chili and Fritos to make Frito pie. I said "No, we have to start eating better."
I was at Bunco last night. The hostess prepared a light version of an apple crisp with light whipped cream on the side. I took a tiny serving and put a tiny dollop on top and someone actually said "Oh that's not enough." I said "I'm watching what I eat."
What do you do without the support of family and friends?
