Spritual Eating

Loosingit66

Hi Folks,

Well, I am happy to have lost 7lbs in 7 days since starting on this journey. I still have much more to go. I wanted to say thank you for all of the encouragement thus far and offer a humble affirmation. I have always had difficulty with overeating. My path has brought me to the realization that my overeating is largely due to my misunderstanding of the reason for eating. I came across this affirmation that I have been using. It is my hope that others may also find it beneficial. May all beings be happy!

With Reasoned consideration I eat this food,

Not for entertainment,
Not for intoxication,
Not for fattening,
Not for beautification,
But merely to maintain this body
For the continuation of life
For the ending of physical troubles.

So we let old painful feelings, like hunger, fade away, And do not stir up any new feelings. Thus, my life goes on smoothly, blamelessly, and in contented peace.

I LOVE this affirmation. Thank you very much for sharing it! It really makes sure that you keep the reason that you're eating only for nourishment of the body and not for any other reason. Very best wishes on your fitness journey.
