Food IS an addiction

Hi my name is Stephanie, and I am addicted to eating bad food.

If someone tells you that food is not an addiction, they need to do some research. It is. There is a group called Overeaters Annon. ( and I am not poking fun with my post its a serious issue). Some people just can not control what they eat. Its like drinking, or gambling, its an addiction and they need help.

I am personally thankful that mine never got to that point. I do know someone that did. And unfortunately, he would NOT get help. After begging, pleading, telling him he was going to die, nothing worked.

I love food. And really any kind of food I will eat. But I was not blessed with a high metabolism. And I am also addicted to bad food- fried food, lots of creamy pasta, bread and butter.... oh me. I love it.

This weekend I really did NOT watch what I ate. I had pizza. I had cheese sticks. I had 2 donuts. I had mac and cheese. All in one day. And normally I would beat myself up over it, and go "Well crap there goes my hard work." but this time I have told myself "Hey you had your fun day now back to work."

Everyone has issues. Everyone has an off day.

I start week 3 of month THREE this week!!!! And I am going to kick butt. I am looking for more healthy recipes. I dont want to say "diet" b/c I will not deprive myself of things. I am just looking for healthier options. And  I am sure I am going ot have to tweak some of these myself.

Stay tuned for recipes and more. I want to meet my first LARGE goal by next summer.

Steph
