Confess your food sins. Forgive, and move on.
I realized today I wasn't a conscious eater, although I will be before my journey is over. There were a few things I needed to confront first like the fact I have food issues, yes issue, blockages that helped to pack on the pounds and made it incredibly hard to lose them.
So what did I learn? Well I learned there are many types of "eaters" and I identified with Emotional eating, Task Snacker, Fast Foody and Fretter as well as others. once I first realized which I identified with I then second needed to understand why I was that type of eater. I then forgave myself and issues surrounding it and moved on to the next step of my journey, so I can begin to consciously eat, be aware of my feelings when I eat and know what and why I'm eating it.
As emotional eater, I know a lot of it was tied to a past relationship and dealing with a lot of unresolved feelings that came from it. Recognizing that is the first step and you guys have no idea how powerful that was for me.
So what of kind of eater are you?
Fretter: frets over everything they eat and have a negative relationship with food always being overly worried about what it is they are eating.
Task Snacker: always eats whenever there is a task to be done and never eats alone. You eat while watching Television, while working on the computer,doing homework or while you're cooking.
Emotional Eater: Eats when stressed, upset, hurt, depressed, experienced trauma or loss.
Fast Foody: hooked on anything done the ski-mask way, quick fast and in a hurry. so meals Fromm fast food places, buffets, or microwave dishes are right up their alley.
The Grazer: The grazer eats unconsciously. They eat while driving, at their desk standing in the refrigerator and they overeat because of it.
If you can identify with any of the above raise your right hand and admit it, confess it, look into the reason why you do it, forgive yourself, make an effort to eat consciously and move on ladies. To the next!, To the Next!
