Dear Diary, I just broke up with FOOD!!!!!!

I have never been overweight or anything but I have always had a love hate relationship with food. For a long time I was able to eat as much as would like to a point to get myself sick with out gaining a pound. What I hated was all the older ladies in my surroundings (such as work) telling me how it will catch up with me!!!! So even if it was one of my guilty pleasures I had never enjoyed myself without my conscious telling me I’m doing something wrong.
Now a day… I am finally in that stage of life that I do have to watch what I’m eating but this time around I feel regret. Regret for listening to all these people making me guilty about food. Now I have my own guilt add to all the guilt that people had put in my brain over the years.
It’s like a horrible boyfriend that we love so much and that disappoints us every time we trust him.
So I have finally broken up with FOOD!!!!! never will you hurt me again!!!!

    So no enjoyment anymore, at all? Ever? Food will never be used for celebration, as part of a social event, or to unite people? You won't have cake on a birthday or turkey on Thanksgiving?

    Sounds pretty depressing. I'll just stick to moderation - if I make good choices 80% of the time, then I won't have trouble indulging on special days. And I can learn to "enjoy" my healthy food too......
  • my biggest issue is self control!! When i start ... i just can't stop.. and it end with guilt..
