Author Geneen Roth has written a lot about women's relationship to food which I've found extremely helpful. Here's a description of her book, Women, Food, and God:
"The way you eat is inseparable from your core beliefs about being alive. No matter how sophisticated or wise or enlightened you believe you are, how you eat tells all. The world is on your plate. When you begin to understand what prompts you to use food as a way to numb or distract yourself, the process takes you deeper into realms of spirit and to the bright center of your own life. Rather than getting rid of or instantly changing your conflicted relationship with food, Women Food and God is about welcoming what is already here, and contacting the part of yourself that is already whole—divinity itself."

ReplyDeleteI really need to start writing down what I eat. I did miserably during Halloween. I'm a sucker for chocolate and peanut butter.
ReplyDeleteOn the positive side I did join a pool for three months and I'm doing water aerobics twice a week.
