Obsession with food? Help!

Mariah

Yes, I love food but who doesn't?

I wake up my first thought is "I bought cookies last night, I need to eat one." because what rational person at 5am in the morning wants a cookie instantly?

I never realized how impulsive I was with food until i started dating my boyfriend. He found it humorous that I had devoted a whole cupboard to chips, snack cakes.. really any unhealthy processed crap you could think of. I found it super strange that he had one bag of chips on the top of his fridge and that he occasionally enjoyed an apple after dinner!? As our relationship became more serious and the amount of time we spend together became more frequent.. I slowly realized how unhealthy my lifestyle was.

I chalked it up to be that I just have zero will power... Boy was I wrong! food is my comfort, I eat when I'm bored, sad, mad.. you name it!

Recently I've been trying to become more aware of my habits but it isn't easy.

If you've stayed with me this far and you understand my silly point.. I really could use some advice or to reassure me that I'm not a complete nut! ❤️ thanks to anyone who understands. constructive criticism is welcomed if need be 😣
