Why has a common incident turned me to food in this way?

“

Hi and welcome to my emotional food journey. Here is a long list of things that helped me stop binge eating.

“

The problem with eating disorders is that they don’t magically appear one day. People don’t often realize it is a sickness that is deeply rooted and not just a new way of losing weight.

“

Food addiction can lead to type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s, arthritis and depression. Like any addiction, food addiction can also damage your relationships with others.

“

You wander, like a lost, sick zombie trying to avoid the aisles and aisles of brains that you so desperately want to eat. Finally, after a few hours, you leave with two healthy snacks and bags full of candy

“

In order to make a positive change, you need to stop feeling guilty for overdoing it in the past and focus on being mindful in the future.

“

We applaud anyone who even attempts to do this. Mainly because it provides us with hours of entertainment, and mainly because it makes us feel better about ourselves.

“

I know your way to freedom, because I was you. Binges are signs that something isn’t quite right.
