On Eating...

"life happens. some days stress gets the best of us. and some days it doesn't. some days you're hungry for everything in sight. and some days you're not. most diets i know don't allow for this variation of life. you eat the same amount each day. and that's just false. that sets you up with this false notion. it's okay to eat more some days and less others. life has a way of balancing out--and we gotta trust that--as opposed to putting some false construct on top of that and trying to fit everything into a box." - from the wild and wily ways of a brunette bombshell

I found this and it really resonated with me. Most people don't talk about food this way. I find myself feeling this way though. Some days I am starving all day and just am really in the mood to eat. Other days I just don't really feel like eating much. It could be because of stress, being busy or even "that time of the month".

I think that is okay as long as you don't let it get out of control either way. Those days when you want to eat everything in sight - make sure you are eating healthy foods and not eating so much that you feel sick. Then those days when you don't want to eat at all - make sure you eat something! Eating little meals throughout the day is healthy for you.

Life is all about balance and eating well is part of that balance. Listen to your body and take care of it!

What do you think? Do you usually eat the same amount every day or not?
