struggling in this spot...

[Guest guest]

I feel ridiculous... I'm struggling and I feel like I know how to stop

struggling, but I just can't seem to get past it.

Since I've been giving myself permission to eat whatever I want, I keep choosing

to eat cookies. LOTS of them! And I don't feel good. I'm having trouble

identifying my hunger cues anyway and this messes with it even more eating so

much sugar. I don't even feel hungry for real food...

So, to sum up, the cookies make me feel bad, but I still want to eat the

cookies. Maybe because I never let myself eat them before? But, you'd think I

wouldn't crave them because they make me feel bad...

It seems so simple to just tell myself to not eat food that makes me feel bad,

but it seems like that's just another 'rule' telling me what I 'should' or

'should not' eat.

Has anyone else experienced something similar to this? I'm still new to this

process and hoping that this is just a phase!

Thanks,
