I’m working on my emotional health right now and looking into the reasons behind why I eat like I do.
So why do I eat? Every time I put something in my mouth there is a reason behind that action. These are the reasons why I eat….

Lol! Yeah, I know I clearly have a lot of reasons why I eat at different times. I like your reason though.
lots of reasons but mainly because it’s something to do and a way to distract me from something I don’t want to do.

I try to eat to live, not the other way around.

Thats a reason I eat too that I didn’t even think about. I definitely use food to distract me from other things.

You’ve got it right my friend.
Love this post. Good for you for emotionally sorting through your eating. This list is inspiring and thought-provoking. Thank you for sharing.
I ATE because I was awake.
I ATE because I was trying to fill a hole in my heart.
I ATE to numb my feelings. I have an addiction/disease.
I changed my life through the miracle of weight loss surgery and so now I have pretty much successfully changed my relationship with food. I look at food as fuel now. It’s not always perfect but it’s working for me so far! Thanks for sharing.
