Starting to turn down food
I've never really thought about why I've always been so reluctant to turn down food I don't want or like, or stop eating when I don't feel like eating anymore. Well, I'm starting to do that now, and it feels great. It feels like I'm more in control. I guess I was always guilted into finishing my food, because not eating all of it was wasteful, but fuck that.
When I'm eating and no longer have the appetite to finish the rest, I throw it away or put it up for later. I'm becoming more picky with foods, and will more readily turn them down.
I've always known in the back of my head that this is how normal people eat, but it never crossed into my mind like it has now. It's empowering to have the control, even when you want to gorge yourself, to listen to what your body wants and say, "I don't want to eat that," or, "There's still food on my plate, but I'm done for now."
It's always been a battle and still is, but the satisfaction of having control over myself feels better than losing to binge eating.
