I just realized today that I've gotten to a point where food is actually kind of boring.
And that's a good thing.
For too long, I was overweight because I was using food products as a buffer between me and my negative feelings.
Some of y'all are self-aware and know you are emotional eaters or stress eaters.
I had no clue.
I was using food products to bump my brain chemicals so often that I didn't even know what I was really feeling.
That's why stopping using food to numb out is so hard.
It requires choosing to sit in discomfort today in order to feel better tomorrow.
Almost impossible, but with tools and support I did it.
Now, food is fuel, and fuel is kind of boring.
It's about as exciting as gassing up my car.
Don't get me wrong, I do still get jazzed about a beautifully plated or an especially delicious meal.
But it's the kind of delight you might feel seeing a really pretty garden or a sunset.
It's an appreciation, not an obsession.
I was able to get free of something I didn't even know I was basically addicted to, and that feels amazing.
