Food Obsession

Posted by jillnicole03 on November 5th, 2008 |Filed Under Vegan Diet |

Good morning :-) So this morning I was thinking how great it is to not have my first thought be… what can I eat for breakfast! Before making this lifestyle change my food addiction controlled my mind so often. I never truly gave up, but it was so difficult not to. I’d wake up in the morning and think, ok what is the yummiest thing I can have for breakfast? Or if I was on a diet, I’d wake up still thinking: what am I allowed to have, how can I make it better? After I ate that I’d think, when can I eat next?? For the last 2 months I wake up and just get ready for work! I don’t go sneak something before I jump in the shower, or sit in the shower planning my breakfast. Even after I’m ready I wait to eat breakfast until I’m hungry (I always still eat breakfast). I’m so happy that I control my life now, not food! I still am thankful I read *my* life changing book: Skinny B*tch. There are so many other books I want to read too, and I have read or browsed all the books at my local library on being vegetarian or vegan, none have caught my attention the way ‘Skinny B’ has, but I’m still looking for more knowledge. Another book I want to buy is: The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth by Johnny Bowden. There is a review on 3FC’s book review you can check out!
