My connection with food is a love hate relationship I love the intake not the physical damage. I don't have a problem buying it although I am very picky when it comes to certain kinds. Food is a relief for some and takes them to a happy place. Some just eat for nourishment and that's it. Me on the other hand, I eat what I crave even if it's healthy or not. See I was spoiled as a child so if dinner was being made and i didn’t want it, mom would simply make something else for me. I was never forced to eat food which I think later made me a better food lover. See I feel that when you are forced, you may start to not want it or even go without eating, which can lead to health problems. Then if your weren’t forced, then you could be over eating, which could also lead to health issues. There are isn’t really a specific way of how someone should get. You always have a skinny person saying you can do it, when they are clearly not understanding. So what do you do? I say do what makes you happy. If food bring you enjoyment why not? People over do everything. Some over clean, over study, over stress, over buy. But that’s considered "normal".

There are so many articles that talk about over eating and how people should just stop. This may be true but how can you just STOP somethign so easily. Its hard to give up something you love so much. Its so much easier said then done. People are always so qyick to say what they wouldnt do, but you dont really know beacuse its not YOU!

ReplyDeleteI wonder if your approach to eating might evolve after this class... :)
I am the complete opposite. I eat because I know I need to. I am not someone that "enjoys eating". I have to force myself to eat too often.
ReplyDeleteWhat kinds of foods are you picky about? And what do you mean by "physical damage?" I'm fascinated - would like to know more!
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way. Some foods are so great when you are eating them but later in the day you just feel sick. And eating like that all the time is really hard. I really takes a tole on your body.
