Being new to real food means sometimes old habbits come back. Recently I have had some stessful/emotional family issues which means Ive made some poor choices. The old habbits to comfort eat are hard to fight. And unfortunatly I have given in to it a bit to much lately. Like yesterday when I had my husband bring home a piece of chocolate cake…
After the chocolate cake I realized I was ready to get back on track. Because the thing about emotional eating is that it just means ive made bad choices on top of dealing with the issues going on. Two bad things instead of one. In the moment the junk food is nice and it can be comforting. But then I just don’t feel good. I hope one day comfort eating will be binging on vegetables but im not there yet. 😉
Today to kick start getting back on track I had a big cup of water and a smoothie for breakfast.
It had spinach, banana, whole milk, avocado, blueberries, chia and flax seeds, and a bit of cocoa powder. It wasn’t super sweet but it was creamy and delichious! I definitely feel a lot better after eating that then the cake.
For lunch Im going to have left over brown rice and beans from dinner last night, maybe snack on some carrots. Then for dinner Im not sure yet. We are needing to go shopping so im low on fresh supplies. But Ill come up with something tasty, healthy, and real! 🙂
It feels good to be getting back on track. Not that I totally fell off of the real food wagon. But enough that I know this way of eating is much better!
In the begining God Created The Heavens and the earth.
