Leaning lots about my "food issues"
With this WOE, it's just so different from other "diets" I've tried. I'm not hungry all the time, and I think that's what has allowed me to stand back and sort of examine the "issues" I have had with food. For example, this week I was very stressed and busy at work -- I found my self thinking -- what can I eat? Not because I was hungry -- it was a nervous reaction. Also, I try very hard to focus on what I CAN eat, instead of what i can't, but at the grocery store, I still have a hard time. I dream of chocolate every night. I was a major carb addict, and although I no longer crave sugar in a physical way -- there is a strong psychological craving. It reminds me of when I quite smoking -- the desire to smoke after the first week had nothing to do with physical addiction. It was a comfort, that's all. Anyhow, does anyone else find themself thinking more clearly about issues you've had in the past with food?
