Hello,
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum, so apologies if it isn't.
Over the past few months I have become somewhat obsessed with food. I used to look forward to going grocery shopping, but now it has become something of a nightmare - what to eat, what not to eat, & so on. I've tried giving up sugar, dairy & wheat. I even tried the raw food diet for a while, but found it very difficult to stick with. I got tired of eating salads & didn't look forward to meal times. I'd like to go back to eating a healthy, balanced diet, albeit cooked, eg steamed vegetables & steamed chicken or rice, (& incorporate fresh fruit & vegetable juices, green smoothies, Superfood, no junk sugary foods, candy, etc) but there's a part of me that is obsessing over whether or not it's the right thing to do, ie cooked = not healthy.
Thoughts?
Thank you

i let my heart lead me to food.it is connected to my brain.
with no health problems, you might be tolerant of many things

This is a reply to # 1,467,416I know exactly what ur going through, there isn't a time i don't think about food even when I would be having a meal i would start to think about what my next meal would consist of. tried sticking to a diet no fats no carbohydrates, no Sugar but fast food has always been my best friend. During the past few years I've gained an enormous amount of weight went from a slim 149 to 203. I even hate going shopping. I've discovered that eating is more mental than anything else, I've learned to have self control and look forward to losing all the weight i've gained, the older you are the harder it will be to lose those pounds. You just gotta do what works best for you and not let food control you. I'ts time for you to take control of your life as I already have. Take one day at a time, try to control ur portions, start slow and remember you don't need to give up junk food as long as u don't have it everyday or all day. Try working out if you can, and remember you and only you can control what you put in ur mouth and the best food u can have is the one you cook cause u know what ur putting into ur food. Good luck.
