Mindfulness Daily Check-In August 26, 2017
Hello everyone
How are we all doing today? I first wanted to say "thank you" to all of you who participated in this forum area and worked very hard-too
So todays check-in is on "Comfort Foods" Yep we all have certain foods we like to eat to feel happy, healing, avoidance really we eat them for whatever reasons- but mainly to feel good Thing is to not feel bad of eating certain foods but to mindfully know it is ok- with no judgement.
So, what are your "comfort foods" or meals/snacks you love to prepare?(ssshhh now I am hungry)

@kvo8
Hi there kvo- wow that sounds sinful but good
I usually try to be healthy, so I normally eat apples or strawberries, but if I'm lazy, I just grab a pop tart or tortilla chips out of the pantry.
Sometimes, I crave sugar so much to the point where I bake cookies from scratch.

@Kevan
Hiya Kevan-so next time you have these please pm me
I've got plenty of comfort foods I turn to but honestly, food is something I use to cope and I use it too much as a primary strategy, so I've gained a lot of weight. I've also got gastritis and a fatty liver now from being overweight and eating too much junk food. I've got muscle strain and tendonitis in different places from being so heavy. The problem is, I'm terrified of cooking meals for myself, even though I am well capable of cooking delicious and healthy meals. It's trauma that's gotten in my way. Somehow, if I go into the kitchen, I've got it in my head that being healthy and giving myself care = more abuse from my mother, so I avoid it. I feel like I won't be able to handle if she came and found me, so I guess it's a way of staying safe. But I don't like what it's doing to me. :(
Comfort foods:
Chocolate
Pizza
Burgers and fries
Cupcakes and cakes
Muffins
Candy
@Zeraphim
Hi Zeraphim good to see you here and thank you for sharing all this tooI am really sorry on all the trauma stuff and things with youe mom. We do hide alot of what we are dealing with-with food. But- I am so glad to hear that you are trying very hard to eat healthier cause of some of your health issues. Me too- has health issues but sometimes the "control" of eating healthy just isn't there. Im learning not to be so hard on me but just learning on my choices of food I bring into my home.
