I've decided if I am to start the journey to healthy living, I need to face up to my bad habits that could hinder me. 1. If it's on my plate, I will eat it. I was raised that what you put on your plate you have to eat, and naturally my family never gave me a reasonable amount. Therefor, I have lost touch with the feeling of being full, not stuffed. It will do me no good to eat healthy if I'm still gorging myself 2. I'm a bored/emotional eater. If I'm bored(homework), I tend to munch. And usually it's something that's close by and easy to eat, such as chips. Last night I made the choice to munch on carrots while doing homework. If I'm extremely upset, I either gorge myself(rare) or I am unable to eat. I need to find a middle balance here. 3. My mother. She is completely unsupportive. She brings bags and bags of pure crap into the house.
