You’re definitely not alone. I would benefit from that reminder and will keep it in mind this weekend.
When I was large and losing weight, I wouldn’t say it “tasted” better. But after a certain point, when I could move more easily, cross my legs, do more acrobatic sex with hubby, and wear a dress after years of NOT going near skirts or dresses , yes. THAT felt better than junk food. Way better. Now, when I get the urge for pizza (which I havent’ had in just over a yaer), I cross my legs or do my toenails (which I can do all by myself now that I can get my feet up to my face, hahahah). That feels so good, TASTES better than pizza.
But it took a while for me to have the physical FEEL that was that taste…I had to reach a point of…constant evidence of how good it tasted.
I’m visiting my parents this weekend. It never fails, when I go there I eat so much more junk than I typically would. So, yes, I’m going to have to remind myself that too. Though, I have a problem with whatever junk food we have laying around here. One day I’ll get over that hurdle – where food isn’t my every thought.
Only every day
Nothing tastes better than feeling good feels.
My momma used to say that, so it must be true!
It not only tastes better – but feels better & lasts longer!
I needed this last might! Had a little too much salt (from baked chips) on weigh in eve.
*night*
I was chanting this to myself this morning when I came down to find an open bag of chips left on the counter. (Definitely need to talk to the teenagers in this house about putting things away…lol) Have a great weekend!
I totally needed that reminder..
I do! I’ve been in a very snacky mood the past few days.
I’m joining the party! I totally agree! The image I have in my head of what I want to look like looks way better than any food you could put in front of me! You can do this!!!
Yep its a reminder I have to give myself OFTEN!!! Sometimes it works and some times it doesn’t! Hehe…
I love this!!
I’m only in the first two weeks of my transformation so this is a great reminder for me. It’s so easy to take the easy way out.
Keep up the great work!
No..I need the reminder too. Happy weekend, dear. Chrissy
I need to remind myself of this too frequently. You’re definitely NOT alone in that.
You are preaching to the choir. I should print this out and hang it on my fridge.
Wonderful mantra!
I keep a few reminders around including a picture of a piece of cake with the words “Stop Stress Eating” on the front of my fridge taken from a magazine and a few photos on my cupboards with pictures of women doing things like playing volleyball, climbing a moutain and running.
Every little bit inspires and helps.
Thank you, I needed to see that today. Most days, actually, but especially today.
I always thought the saying went “Feeling good about my weight feels a lot better then how good eating makes me feel”
I’m sure that has been said too, but I wasn’t quoting anyone…I was just saying what I needed to hear this weekend…
Bahahaha no not the only one, definitely not!!!!!!
I like to tell myself ”nothing tastes as good as skinny feels“
nope. SIGH.
