I am confused when it comes to moderation and food. I have been pondering what it looks like to eat in moderation for the last two years. I admit that I would like it to mean that I can eat a very small serving of dessert after lunch and dinner. And I can have starch at every meal. However, my body doesn't loose weight when I do those things, no matter how active
I try to be. So, I am asking you, "What does moderation look like to you? "
I think the biggest issue for me, well the two biggest are: I can deceive myself that I'm just having a small serving, when it's not all that small. The second is having that 'small' serving when I'm really not hungry. If I've had my full during dinner and I have a small dessert, I'm still overeating, because I was satisfied with just the meal. But again, I deceive myself in thinking that it won't hurt. Those are my two issues with moderation.
ReplyDeleteI don't know right now. I keep gaining weight. I think it means eating a little less than I want. Also, never eating sugar 'cause then I will binge on it. I also think it changes with time.
ReplyDeleteI hope you figure it out. At least you are trying to figure it out which is probably moderation in itself.
