Wow. That quote came across my Twitter from Hangry Pants, who also used it in one of her posts today.
I am grateful that I haven’t fallen into the trap of fearing food, at least not yet. Sometimes I think it would be okay to fear it a little, but for the most part, I feel okay. Yes, I tried to turn food into more than it is – fuel for your body. It was, at various times in my life, my love, my partner, my friend, my comfort, my punishment, my shame. But I never feared it.
I feel as though food and I are on the same side now. I still seek some pleasure from it, but that pleasure is more in how it makes me feel healthy,not in how it helps me get past a sad episode in my life.
Okay, on to the food recap for tonight:

I do wonder if my weight-loss is attributable to my increase in calories (so that my body isn’t in starvation mode) or the stomach flu. I guess next week will tell.
BMR 2862 – 2647 cal consumed = 215 deficit
Just a reminder that Future Hubby and I are heading out of town tomorrow until Sunday. I don’t know that I’ll be posting much, as I’m not sure if I’ll have a connection or not. My cousin’s funeral is Sunday and I’m not sure yet if I’m going. I know she would understand either way.
Ciao for now!
