Why do I eat?

Friday Dec 2, 2011

That is a very good question I was speaking to a lady today who has lost 40 kg in the last 2 yrs and she said to me that what helped her was listening to her body and to work out why it is that she actually eats.  How we didn’t get in to details because I don’t know her that well but it did make me think about that very question!

Have you ever asked a naturally thin person what they think about food?  Well I have and the thing is THEY DON’T THINK ABOUT FOOD!

Light Bulb!!!!! I think about food a lot!!!!!!

Why well that I am still trying to work out.  Is it because I am actually hungry on this diet?  Is it because I don’t eat enough on this diet? Or because I am bored? Or maybe because I’m stressed? Or just because I have always thought about food……And I have always been fat?

Well that’s not exactly true I think that I really started to put the weight on after about 14 when I got a part time job and had some cash to spend!  I have since then been 70 kg twice once when I was 19 and then right before I got married at 32! Pretty said really….

The thing is in my 20’s I was about 85 kg for 10 yrs then I lost the weight for my wedding and since then I have managed to pile the weight on.

But back to my original question why do I eat well I just haven’t figures that out yet so maybe that’s my problem.

As for weight loss the week…very very very slow I was up then down then up again like the last few weeks and finally today I was 98.3 kg!  But tomorrow is cheat day so we will start the cycle again!
