I've always been an emotional eater. Food was my best friend. Ate myself to obesity and insulin resistance, no problem. Breaking that habit has been something I've struggled with for a long time, but I finally feeling like I'm making mental progress! I've lost 35 lbs, and feel like this has been the most crucial part of that. I cannot overstate how important it is to work on your emotions and feelings and thought processes around eating, as well as just coming up with a diet.
I couldn't stick to any diets before, because I didn't want to. I just wanted to eat. I had to make myself understand that it's okay, it's normal to want to eat when I'm stressed out or just generally feeling my feelings, but that I need to find different coping mechanisms, and I need to not see food as my go-to comfort blanket. It's not easy, for sure, there's been a lot of introspection, but if the results of that are going to be my weight loss actually working, I'm willing to do it!
