Stories we Tell Ourselves about Food

I remember telling myself that Oreos made me feel horrible & I shouldn’t eat them.

But the truth was that I didn’t trust myself around them & every time I ate them, I binged on them, which of course led me to feeling absolutely horrible & furthered the belief that they must be restricted not just because I lose control but because they make me feel bad.

When I started to work on my relationship with food, I questioned everything; my beliefs, fears, experiences all of it.

I wasn’t where I wanted to be, I knew things had to change.

I came to realize that it wasn’t the food that made me feel like crap, it was the binging, & in order to reduce the binges I needed to personally reduce my fixation on those foods & to do that I needed to transform the rules I had about food.

I started using small exposure to these foods. I began with 5 chocolate chips per day, built up trust in myself, moved onto 2 Oreos per day, built up trust in myself further, & continued from there.

I noticed a reduction in desire for these foods because I started to accept them as viable normal options to include in my day as I felt so much better.

This really came from repeatedly asking myself, “what’s better? 1 now or 20 in a panicked frenzy of eating to get as much down as possible in hopes of being perfect the rest of the week?”

I’m glad I came to realize that I’d rather have 1 mindful choice daily than 20 mindless frenzies that left me ashamed & guilty & increased my fixation on the next “cheat day”.

It’s so weird even writing about my experiences now because I can’t imagine myself ever doing these things again.

I’ve come a long way in my relationship with food & I feel this is really only a glimpse into my process & the process I have now developed to support others in healing their relationship with food while pursuing their physique goals.

You can get a taste for the work I do at www.celestial.fit/foodseries in my free 8 day coaching series with a full workbook, psychoeducational videos, & you can even get feedback from me!
