Return Home from Trip

This is the first post to the new blog, "Eating Problem Living Problem". Let's discuss our experiences with eating habits we don't like, and explore possible reasons why we go there. then, let's explore solutions to becoming who we really want to be! I'll go first....

So we returned from a week-long trip yesterday. Trips always mess me up food-wise, since I eat weird food in restaurants almost daily when I'm out of town. So someone says, "Why don't you just order a dry-grilled chicken breast and have a salad with lemon juice?" My response to that is, "Are you kidding? I mean, who really does that? I've never done that even in my skinniest days! Speak my language!"

Why go to a restaurant if I'm going to get something bland? And don't start talking about cooking, either. I'm not a cook, I don't cook, and the more I cook, the more I eat. In fact, I'm not the slightest bit interested in culinary stuff. And regarding the restaurant thing, I will neither bring my dressing in to a restaurant, nor will I ask a waiter for baked chips.

I enjoy eating. I don't know anyone who doesn't! My goal here is to develop the healthiest relationship with food as possible, free from any preoccupation with food - and still enjoy having a slender, healthy and fit physique.

Anyway, back to the topic. So today, I'm still messed up - specifically, I'm still craving food I don't want to eat, because of how I ate last week. It's unrealistic for me to think that my eating will always be consistent, so I'm going to have to learn how to deal with these ebbs and flows.

I attempted to regain traction with the food today. I did okay, but my food still wasn't perfect. I'm just going to have to be okay with that. I mean, it didn't take me a day to get all messed up, so it may take me more than a day to get back to EATING CLEAN!
