I actually find this article really sad. Super happy that the person was able to get to a healthy weight, but their relationship with food still sounds unhealthy. No snacks. Put down your cutlery between bites. Reward yourself for being “good.” Constant mind games to not feel hungry.
There is so much shame and restriction that I would personally find it very hard to sustain this diet. Food should make you feel good. If you get a little hungry and want a snack, then have a little snack! It doesn’t have to be potato chips and chocolate bars.
The author is berating himself for trying too many things at a Thai buffet. I just want to tell the author that he doesn’t have to be ashamed. It’s okay to try new things and have fun with food. Your catalyst for a life change may have been shame, but you don’t have to keep tearing yourself down constantly. Do things because you wanna feel healthy, live a long life.
