My whole life I had it in my head that weight loss would or SHOULD be comfortable. I thought I was broken or โit wasnโt workingโ because it always came with a big side of:โฃ
-cravingโฃ
-negative emotionโฃ
-mental chatter โฃ
-changeโฃ
-different routineโฃ
-energy fluctuationโฃ
โฆand for me, even insomnia and anxiety. ๐โฃ
โฃ
These are all temporary. But because I had no emotional sobriety to allow them to be there, for as long as they needed to be, I couldnโt stop overeating. Nothing would FIX them except food. โฃ
โฃ
We donโt need to fix them. โฃ
โฃ
We need to know that we are OK even when our bodies feel funky.โฃ
โฃ
We are OK even when our emotions are acute.โฃ
โฃ
We are OK even when other people donโt agree with what weโre eating.โฃ
โฃ
OK doesnโt mean comfortable. OK means serenity with what IS, even if what is - is downright gnarly.โฃ

I needed help to learn how to do this with food. ๐โ๐ฎ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ, ๐ช๐ง ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ค๐ข๐ฏโ๐ต ๐ด๐ต๐ฐ๐ฑ ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ฏ๐จ.
