Just had an AHA! moment Every time I feel the urge to eat compulsively/emotionally.That's another opportunity to sit down and identify my trigger. Identify that need/want from my inner child.
This is so true, after I started meditating & deliberately becoming conscious, without even focusing on food I stopped over eating without really even thinking about it. It was a slow and gradual process though, over several years. I didn't get mad at myself for over eating when I did it, and I didn't judge myself in the mirror. I just stayed focused on my inner world rather than my external, continually putting my focus back there if I ever found myself looking in the mirror & not liking what I saw. I'm now thinner than I was when I was deliberately restricting all my calories until I almost fainted; but I'm at a healthy weight & I have what I would describe as a calm relationship with food. The real turning point I think came when I noticed I liked my smile & thought it was beautiful, so I'd make a point to smile & laugh with myself in the mirror, pull funny faces at myself, anything to make me see the beauty that was already there. I think that also helped me develop the muscles in my face that make it more attractive now too, although I certainly wasn't thinking about that at the time.
Hi, is there any way I can get in touch with you? It may be too much to ask for, from a stranger. But I know that I really need help. Reading your story gives me hope that someone out there did overcome the challenge of mindlessly eating. I have absolutely zero clue how to deal with it. Please do respond.
Eat less often and slowly. Learn that snacking and sugar keeps cravings and insulin high so your body stores calories instead of burning fat. Try fasting once for 2 (or 3) days to experience how cravings can be stopped - when your body starts burning fat instead of carbs. Eat more healthy fats and protein and eliminate processed carbs. Learn how hormones, stress and the bad stomach bacterias affect cravings.
