Guest guest Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Hi McKella,Same goes for me. I don't have "taboo" foods anymore. Restricting any one food spells disaster for me. Inevitably I'll rush out to greet it within a week or so. However, after years of observing myself and my body's response to certain foods, I have discovered that certain foods (typically simple sugar based foods and white flour) produce a physiological reaction in me that quite simply does not feel good. I'm a huge proponent of Geneen Roth's work. One of her suggested guidelines is to "eat what your body wants". It's taken years to distinguish between what my body wants and what my mouth and/or mind wants, but there is a distinct difference. My body never wants anything that makes me feel like crap. So, I find that simple carbs aren't worth the spaced out feeling they inevitably induce. I'll eat them on occasion, but much like the previous member, I try to eat them when I'm feeling centered and present with my meal. Hope this helps and cheers!Cheers! A.
