How does food make you feel?!?

A few weeks ago I was showing a friend a download from whole 30. Whole30 guide to off roading. It's meant to help you decide if you really want the latte in front of you. I found it helpful at this point in my journey. My friend asked where it the choice to drink the damn latte without guilt. That really got me thinking about how food makes me "feel".  Does it make me feel guilty? Something at that moment clicked and I decided right then: Food cannot provide me with emotions! I cannot feel regret for enjoying a latte, or for eating non-compliant bacon. I started to focus on how it made me feel physically and when enjoying the food would it be worth the physical feelings. I feel like this is a major breakthrough and came at the same time as the new book by Melissa Hartwig: Food Freedom Forever. I have only began to break into the first chapter but I'm ready for this.  Since that time I've had some opportunity to test this out. The first was a movie night with my besties. I'd been eating compliant food for 6 days.  On movie night I went out to dinner, ate popcorn and soda and even a little frozen yogurt. At first I started to feel guilty like I'd wrecked my "streak" of good eating, in the end though I decided this is real life and this is what I want to eat right now. I am not on a "diet". I woke up feeling bloated but you know what that is? It is physical, no emotions and the next day back to my whole30 foods. Through last week I worked long shifts but brought my food I was prepared, I did have my favorite latte not because I deserved it, but because I wanted it. At the end of my long week husband made homemade crepes with bacon I love them, I wanted them, I ate them. I woke up with a red bumpy face: a physical reaction to what I had ate, and again no guilt just ate compliant foods the next day. This is real life, this is eating healthy most of the time, but not letting food make me "feel". No guilt, no binging because I ate some bad food I might as well eat it all. No starting over just continuing my mission eating healthy most of the time.
