“calories dont count over the holidays” WRONG! calories don’t count ever. stop counting them enjoy ur life
things I've learned as a person with a weird relationship to food
listen to your body. attaching your food intake to an arbitrary schedule is so wack to me. eat when hungry. don't force yourself to eat if you're not. if you have a sensory aversion going on, drink milk or something thing as your "meal" it doesn't matter as long as you get key nutrients. (meal replacement shakes come in so many good flavors now.) small portions across the day are just as valid as bigger portions a few times (actually balances your blood sugar better if that's something you need to be aware of). drink water when thirsty. I'm a freak who likes straight tap water don't judge me. (this is not an anti soda post I love soda, just remember to drink water first so you don't get dehydrated.) actually, try water or whatever preferred hydrating beverage before food bc sometimes your body can be signalling you for thirst but it comes across as hunger (or is this just me?) it's okay to take gummy kids vitamins if pills are gross to you. allow yourself to eat the things you like when you want. have that cereal for dinner or that special candy bar you've been saving. brownies have eggs in them!!! very filling and tasty. eat the same goddamn thing every fucking day for a month if it makes your brain cooperate with nutrition intake. I've been having sourdough toast with jelly and sharp cheddar slices for brunch for the last few weeks. delicious. ignore the haters, life sucks enough without externally imposed correct standards of what to feed yourself
