Okay but let’s talk about why this happens. I definitely used to relate to this. I felt like I HAD to obsess, that it was just my cross to bear. MY body won’t let me relax around food. Other people can eat what they want, but if I have a bite of dessert? I’ll gain ✨ 5 pounds ✨ I see now how that mentality set me up for all-or-nothing thinking. It set me up to: eat “clean” all day, only to overeat at night because “well I’ll gain weight anyway. Might as well enjoy this”. No wonder I wasn’t able to keep my weight steady — my eating was chaotic! But we don’t usually realize that when we put those overeating episodes into a little box where we forget it ever happened. Why does this happen to women so much more? Because we have IMMENSE pressure to be SKINNY. Overeating? Not allowed. We are literally taught to hyper-fixate on our weight, our food, and what we look like. Only after I zoomed out and saw the bigger picture did I see it: what I was believing about my body and food was actually HARMING me. After THAT, I was able to be like my husband… eat what I want (a mix of food the makes me feel good and some fun foods as well), and not gain weight at the drop of a hat.
