I’ve been thinking a lot lately about my relationship with food.  I’ve never considered it unhealthy but I’ve never really considered it all.  I recently read an article about having a healthy relationship with food and it really made me think.  There were some things that I already do like not having tempting foods in my house, some things I shouldn’t do like sitting down with the whole bag and a bunch of things I’ve never thought of.  For example, a snack is something nutrition to stave off hunger and keep us on track nutritionally while a treat is purely for enjoyment.  I guess that candy bar was the wrong snack choice.  The other big things is that we should eat when we are hungry and stop when we are full.  It may sound like common sense but I don’t think too many people follow this simple rule.  I need to listen more to my body and know when I am actually hungry and not just eating because I think it’s time to. 

The biggest thing I have to work on is eating breakfast.  I really have never been a breakfast person and I know it’s not a good thing.  My goal for this coming month is to eat something for breakfast at least five times a week. I know it should be everyday but I have to start somewhere.  I just need to commit to it like I’ve committed to this challenge and see what happens.  Wish me luck!
