Food Obsessions are Fading

I have hoarding and obsessive issues with food. During the last few months, while I’ve been eating clean, it’s made life easier. Food has been a battle for me for more than 20 years. I’ve inched my way into a healthier way year after year. I’ve taken baby steps, but nothing has helped me more than by choosing clean eating.

I find most of my obsessive habits are slowly fading away. They are extending beyond food as well, because once you learn to break a bad habit, you can really evaluate things more clearly.

It’s nice not to be consumed in thoughts of food. I still have a small issue with one food in particular, but I’ve been tackling it head on. My first thought was to rid myself of the food completely, but then I realized the food wins. Instead, I’m working on portion control, and looking at the difference between mind hunger and body hunger. I may eventually win this too. I’m doing better than I ever thought I would. It’s refreshing to see food in an entirely new way.

I can’t promise I’ll be this way forever, but what I can tell you is I’ve taken 10 steps forward in this path and only one or two steps back, so I’m still 8 paces ahead in this area of my life.
