KC Sunshine Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Just read a really interesting article about Orthorexia - when healthy eating becomes disordered. I did 3-4 Whole30s last year, and for the most part they were great. I still eat mostly paleo, and I find that my relationship with food has changed over time. However, recently, I've tried to be more mindful with food. I eat when I'm hungry, and try to stop eating when I'm not hungry. In the past, I feel like I'd eat even when I wasn't hungry, because that was the time I was "supposed" to eat. Or I'd eat small / random foods when I was out and couldn't find healthy food. While I'm really grateful I did the Whole30, I think ultimately, balance is what works. Be kind to yourself people! Eat healthy, but try not to obsess over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb. Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Great and worthy post KC Sunshine. Its my theme for the day. Do the work but don't obsess to the point of negatively impacting your emotional health. Mindful awareness is everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
