Today I am talking about why you eat when you don’t want to.
And what I mean by that is; why is it that a part of you wants to
eat and a part of you doesn’t.
I used to be desperate to lose weight. I knew what foods to
eat and what foods not to eat. I loved fruit and vegetables and yet
I still ate chocolate and ice cream. I still had too many crisps
and dips on a Friday night. And when I ate these foods, sometimes I
would feel conflicted and other times I would simply forget that I
didn’t want to eat them, until I stood on the scales on a
Monday.
I used to wonder how something so important to me could be so
easily forgotten after a glass of wine, or when the artisan coffee
shop had a particularly amazing selection of cakes on
display.
How could I be so capable in so many areas of my life and yet
so incapable of something that should be relatively easy. Simply
not eating too much at mealtimes and not eating, or saying no, to
food between meals.
And when I was questioning myself and wondering why I was so
incapable, I blamed myself. I thought maybe I was flawed in some
way. I felt so frustrated, so full of shame about my inability to
lose weight and keep it off.
So, if you can relate, today’s podcast is for you. Listen in
and you will learn why you eat when you don’t want to. You will
understand you’re not a failure, you’re not flawed you are perfect
just the way you are.
