Crutches
Stress… work… raising a kid alone… money
Boredom… STARVING… anger… sadness
These are my “crutches” … my excuses for not eating healthy
For binge eating… for late night cravings.. for just being greedy
I have used beating other “addictions” as an excuse to maintain this one…. I haven’t done drugs or alcohol in 16yrs.. so I deserve to have this vice
I could choose exercise as my vice… I could be addicted to salads…
I could crave water… I could meditate to relieve stress…
I could read a book when I get bored… I DEFINITELY should pray when I’m angry… I could eat until I’m no longer hungry instead of eating until I’m stuffed and can barely move….
My biggest motivation to kick my food addiction is RAISING A KID ALONE… I am all he has… but I use fear and sadness of this to eat even more… my biggest excuse is don’t have time…
I know I don’t have to be in a gym to exercise … Time to get rid of the crutches… and walk upright.. AND HEALTHY!!
