I Thought Food Freedom Meant I Wouldn’t Stop Eating. Here’s What Actually Happened.
I used to think that food freedom meant that if I gave myself permission to have whatever, I WOULDN’T STOP EATING
I could just imagine me barreling through bowls of ice cream...
Bags of chips...
Entire pizza pies...
Not a veggie in sight and 50 lbs heavier overnight...
I was so much more comfortable in my food rollercoaster of "eating clean" and "screw it eating".
Ever feel that way? That back and forth voice in your head around letting go of the food rules?
When I finally reached my breaking point with my food thoughts taking up most of my mental space- getting in the way of dreams, relationships, and LIFE- I finally closed my eyes and asked for help.
And when I did, I had a lightbulb moment that food freedom meant learning HOW to trust my own body, instead of following someone else’s plan.
FINALLY CHOOSING FOOD INSTEAD OF FOOD CHOOSING ME.
Today I can actually feel when I’m hungry and when I’m full.
I eat based on how I want to FEEL and know which foods satisfy me- sometimes that’s kale salads and sometimes that cake...it ALL HAS A SEAT A THE TABLE.
My regular food binges are no more. Something I truly never thought I’d be able to declare.
And I feel pretty damn good in my body most days.
