Balance

The last few weeks I've been really focusing on balance. This is what I need, as well as my family. While I love how whole30 makes me feel physically and emotionally I just cannot eat whole30 100%of the time. I don't think the intention of whole30 is to eat that way all the time. I'm reading Food Freedom Forever, and this is what I'm trying to do, gain my food freedom. For example one day last week I ate a burger and fries, along with frozen yogurt from my favorite place, I enjoyed the good and did not feel bad. I did have a minor breakout but that's another story. So I continued from there, I may eat completely whole30 compliant one day, have dairy the next, maybe some rice or a Caramel Macchiato. What I've noticed is if I have a meal that I don't eat the healthiest it doesn't turn into a day, week or month of unhealthy eating. During those binges I eat just to eat where in the end I have gained weight and feel terrible both physically and emotionally.  Keeping a balance really the best way for me. I don't want to log my meals, or count calories.  I don't want to go through life passing on dessert, I also don't want to eat day old doughnuts in the breakroom just because they are there. I still have not weighed myself in October, I considered it today but I realized that I committed to something, I'd only be letting myself down. Looking forward to continue to keep my balance, I know in any given day it will sway from side to side, I've taken the guilt out of eating, the worry, the anxiety, I'm just eating.
