And it makes me hungry." Ha! I definitely have problematic relationships with food. I will eat - and enjoy - healthy, nutritionally dense food for weeks, and then all of a sudden I'll eat nothing but potato chips and chocolate for a week straight. I wish I could be a bit more balanced instead of having this not-so-smart all-or-nothing approach to food or eating.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420841652300294215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5544913458028415917.post-44432952741873195112012-04-15T23:11:14.415-04:002012-04-15T23:11:14.415-04:00This was a really interesting post for me.you hit ...This was a really interesting post for me.you hit the nail on the head down to what your dad says eat to live not live to eat. now that i am where i want with my family i do better just eating when im hungry but still a night snacker cause im bored or tired.Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06248293979879390754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5544913458028415917.post-31923443525243329692012-04-15T15:29:15.978-04:002012-04-15T15:29:15.978-04:00I just wanted to say, for the record, that my eati...I just wanted to say, for the record, that my eating issues have A LOT to do with emotions (most prominently boredom) and all sorts of other things that I don't really understand. My meds don't just make me less hungry, but when I'm sated, for some reason I don't think about more food, whereas when I'm not on my meds, and I finish a wonderful meal, I immediately think of what else I could eat, even when I'm uncomfortably full. So yeah, my meds "fix" my issues with food, and I LOVE THAT.<br /><br />I am not a mindful eater at all. I'm trying to change that. I'm trying to only eat when I'm sitting and aware and focused on what is going into my mouth. I try to chew longer and really experience the food as I chew it. I try to do these things but generally I fail miserably. <br /><br />I really don't know where we all get these messed up issues with food from. All I know is I don't want to pass them on to my daughter and yet it seems inevitable. Ugh. It's all so hard. I hope your relationship with food softens. Thank you for putting this out there. I would never have imagined that we had similar relationships with food; I've always assumed that people who enjoy making food and are good at cooking have healthier relationships with it but that obviously isn't always the case. It was very brave to put this out there and I thank you for that.Esperanzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12375150088333673843noreply@blogger.com
